I tested the one-metre cable Magnus Signal...

...to connect the CD player to the integrated amplifier. The system is composed by Klipsch La Scala first series loudspeakers, Audio Analogue Maestro CD player, Tektron TK2A3/45S-I-REF integrated amp.

The Ricable cable replaced a cheap INTERCONNECT cable (a third of the price of Magnus) and was also compared with a cable of the same price from another brand. Foreword: I believe that a cable should not act as a filter or equaliser in any way.

The cable arrived in a beautiful box, with comprehensive and elegant information sheets. It is of excellent workmanship, both for the connectors and the cable itself. Robust and pleasing to the eye. The test has been carried out with preheated electronics and with three CDs: Bob Marley with Legend, Miles Davis with Kind of Blue and a test CD made by Di Prinzio with a varied musical selection.

Compared to the cheap cable, the Magnus surprised me in a resounding way. Leaving aside the classic parameters of soundstage extension, detail and dynamics, which have obviously improved enormously, it has objectively "raised the volume" of the sound. Literally.

Comparisons with the cable of the same price, however, showed significant improvements, at least to my ears. A greater detail and richness of the sound in general. The most evident improvements have been: when listening to Bob Marley's CD the bass is more present and always controlled, in Davies' Kind of Blue you can notice a clearer and more precise positioning and separation of the instruments in the space, in Di Prinzio's CD, which goes from Nada to Philip Glass, generally you can turn up the volume of the sound with less listening fatigue, which for me means a purer sound.

In conclusion, I believe that the cable Magnus does its job excellently and significantly better than other cables of equal or greater price: to let the signal pass completely and without modification.

    HELLO, I AM A HI-FI ENTHUSIAST BOTH AT HOME AND IN THE CAR.
    I BOUGHT A DIGITAL COAXIAL CABLE RICABLE , AND ASSEMBLED IT WITH A SONY U800 BLUE-REY DVD AND A SUNFIRE GRAND MAK 2 PREAMPLIFIER AND A SUNFIRE GRAND CINEMA AMPLIFIER, AND A WHOLE NEW WORLD OPENED UP TO ME....
    THE SCENE AND RAISED THE BASS, (I FORGOT SPEAKERS DINAUDIO 2-WAY CONTUR), VERY CONTROLLED INSTRUMENTS MORE REAL.
    IN SHORT, A REAL PLEASURE.
    AS SOON AS I CAN INSTALL RCA CABLES IN THE CAR RICABLE .
