Review #23 - Cable INTERCONNECT Dedalus Signal - Try a Ricable

The cable under test is impeccably made, with high-quality connectors and finished with an eye-catching yellow outer jacket. The cross-sectional area appears large, though it has excellent flexibility. The connectors are clamped, for optimal connection with any type of device.

The cable supplied by Ricable is a new, unbroken-in cable, which is why it was played about forty hours before listening. The first sessions showed a warm, round sound, not too extended at the extremes but endowed with excellent midrange, natural and round, very pleasant with both male and female voices. No harshness, given the unobtrusive treble range, and no fouling, given the tendency to portray an unobtrusive bass. The soundstage appears wide, both frontally and laterally, giving excellent involvement.
The sound of the cable remained essentially the same until about one hundred hours of use. Past the hundred hours, the sound improved perceptibly, particularly in the low range, where the body of the sound appeared, finally, to be in line with what the reference cables showed. However, the sound remained quite closed, limited in extension, losing the finer details and what I like to call the "breath of music." The transverse width of the soundstage also remained relatively limited, more confined near the head. The test was carried out using very well recorded classical, jazz and rock music pieces, alternating the cables several times to test the repetitiveness of the sensations.
