What made you choose Ricable?

I made the decision to purchase these two power cords from the company's Top Series after noting a large number of excellent reviews on the web but especially very positive experiences of friends who have purchased products from Ricable. In addition, Ricable gives as many as thirty days to test and verify the sonic results inherent in the inclusion of their products within the Hi-Fi/Hi-End system chain of user customers.

What do you think about the construction
and aesthetics
of the product?

Regarding the construction of these cables, it is obvious to recognize a very high intrinsic level of the materials used and contextually a very high level of assembly resulting in an inexorably perfect result! Turning our attention to the aesthetics, a feeling of pleasure is evident even in just looking at them, and in addition to what has been explained, the packaging where they are contained seems to be part of the commercial sphere of the jewelry world.

How did you carry out the tests? What tracks did you use to test the cable?

The Audio Analogue Maestro Special Edition monophonic power amplifiers with the corresponding preamplifier, were being used by me with excellent Airtech power cables. At the time I decided to upgrade, buying precisely the Invictus Power Reference Ricable series, I would have expected a difference in positive concerning exclusively some details during listening, ergo, I started playing tracks well memorized by my auditory apparatus for about an hour, after which, connecting the Ricable I listened to the same tracks ... well, I "jerked" off the couch! We are not talking about nuances in the positive, but a tangible and very real improvement in every respect.

What were your
listening impressions?

The greater transparency was the first feature that caught my attention, the soundstage took on a definition and separation of instruments/voices significantly higher with a higher three-dimensionality both in width and depth, while maintaining a proper ratio thus avoiding "gigantism", I also found greater control in the lower frequencies. In addition, I wanted to point out that, placing my ears close to the power amps, obviously in operating mode, I found a silence almost totally eliminating that slight "hum" audible precisely a few inches from the electronics.

Your conclusions.

In conclusion, I can only confirm an extremely positive judgment without conferring any doubts or perplexities regarding the product, and manifesting a service that excels both from the point of view of the availability on the part of the company staff, always ready to follow up on any question submitted to them, and the extreme speed of processing and shipping inherent in the products ordered. Bravo!
