Review Francesco Try a Ricable Magnus  Signal
How did you test for differences?

Test carried out by connecting the Magnus between the Audio Research preamp and power amp. Since the beginning I've noticed an improvement especially in the definition and in the control of the low frequencies in comparison with the Van Den Hul D-102. After a few days of break-in, also the mid-high range is well present, open and very pleasant.

How did you carry out the tests? Which songs did you use to test the cable?

The impressions have been absolutely positive, thanks also to the exceptional contribution of the cable Speaker Supreme P2, connected to the tannoy Berkeley MKII, purchased a few days later. Rehearsals with Diana Krall, Norah Jones, Michael Bublé and Musica Nuda to test the voices; Gary Moore, The Aristocrats, Porcupine Tree, Iron Maiden for the rhythm and rock sections. All presented in an excellent way, with an excellent soundstage and good handling of even the most challenging passages.

Any differences from reference cables.
Did you find any?

As written above, the differences are not abysmal but clear compared to the Van Den Hul. I'd be curious, finances permitting, to also try the power cords and the top series INTERCONNECT and speaker cables.
