Key features
INVICTUS XLR is the balanced cable that offers you the possibility of breaking the chains that imprison your equipment within an atonal sound without personality. Now your equipment will be free to express what it is, without limits and boundaries.
- YOUR SOURCES HAVE ALWAYS DREAMED OF A CABLE LIKE THIS: High-end cable of absolute technical, aesthetic and acoustic standing. The sound performance is characterized by an incredible acoustic balance and this cable is able to carry the audio signal perfectly, giving back an extended dynamic, especially on the most complex passages. The timbre is very neutral and the characterisation of the soundstage is surprising, with sharper, brighter and more centred voices.
- MARC CONDUCTOR 70% compared to OFC: 0.57 mm2 conductors made of 7N MARC (Multicore Annealed Ricable Conductor) Copper with strands 0.08 mm smoother and more compact surface allowing 70% better audio transmission than OFC Copper.
- RNR TECHNOLOGY (RICABLE NOISE REDUCTION): A Germanium semiconductor on all conductors reduces background noise and hiss generated by the audio media. With this system, the sound is more detailed and brighter, while maintaining a natural and balanced timbre.
- OFC COPPER CONNECTORS 40% vs. BRASS: Proprietary oversized XLR connectors with OFC COPPER contacts and non-magnetic, noise-reducing alloy shell. These connectors improve electrical parameters by over 40% compared to common brass connectors. 24K Gold plated with specific Gold/Copper electrolysis technique.
- COMPROMISE-FREE CONSTRUCTION: Balanced Geometry with Triple Shielding Copper/Aluminium/Magnesium for EMI/RFI interference. The insulating materials used are the top of R-TEC technology, with special polyethylenes and innovative polymers, in order to reduce electrical capacitance and resistance and ensure better support for the audio signal.
Models of the Invictus XLR Series:

Lorenzo's review
The construction is impeccable with top-notch materials. The XLR cables have a very comfortable and precise clamping system. The shielding is really top-notch, since I have been using Ricable cables I have not experienced any kind of interference INTERCONNECT.
Antonio's review
That sense of 'dirtiness' that I used to hear in the high and very high frequencies has disappeared and everything has gained body and linearity. I can't imagine what it will be like when it's up and running.
Flavio's review
[...] the Invictus really made a difference in my system, taking it to another level. Maybe it won't be like that for everybody, but it is definitely worth trying them [...]. I also think that the price is not at all excessive, also considering the remarkable care in manufacturing and the use of high quality materials.

Very well made cable, clean and detailed sound, delivery on time as always.
The build quality of this cable is truly commendable, the acoustic output it gave me was far superior to the good unbalanced cables I was using previously. I was very impressed.
As soon as it was installed it was a different story, although it needs breaking in like all the cables I have used.

Cables without compromise....
After replacing the normal audio connection cables with these Supreme X1 you can "feel" the difference. I am very satisfied: excellent product, very fast shipping in 1 day, very correct seller...

I bought a pair of Invictus xlr for curiosity: I wanted to compare them with the top of the range of a famous European cable manufacturer. Well, the comparison was clear even at first listening. The Invictus are more precise, more transparent, do not leave tails on the bass and the reduction of background noise does justice to the whole system. Very quick delivery and also the on-line advice from the guys at Ricable. I am very satisfied.

I wrote this review on Trustpilot following a link, it seems only fair to post it here as well.
I've been using this cable for about ten days now, not quite up to the ever-so-right 100 hours, but I've used it a lot. Unfortunately, the device I connected it to is also brand new, so there will certainly be further refinements, at least.
Having said that, I am very satisfied with what I listen to, so much so that sometimes I find it hard to stop. The sound is full-bodied, the highs are absolutely present up to the (my surely!) extreme limit but at the same time they are "thick", it is really effective. The mid-bass is not emphasized at all, maybe a sign of the goodness of the source, luckily for me, and of the good marriage between the two...the deep bass is definitely deep! Never overpowering even when it goes down to hell, and especially engraving permitting it manages to modulate at ultra-low frequencies, so you can distinguish a phrasing even at those depths.
In the first days at high volume the midrange was a bit muddy and consequently struggled to integrate properly with the highs, something that completely disappeared with intense use.
I think you can tell that I'm very satisfied with this cable and, as I've already written in another review, the direct buying experience is extremely fast and satisfying. Apart from the pleasure of having the object of desire immediately in your hands, it is a sign that you are dealing with serious people.
Of course, all of the above refers exclusively to my ears, to my system and, above all, to the environment in which it is installed.
