Review #8 - Cable INTERCONNECT Invictus Signal - Try a Ricable
Construction and aesthetics. Did the cable feel solid and attractive?
The cable has excellent appearance, well-made connectors, high quality outer sheath.
How did you run the tests to find differences?
I let the cable run in for about forty hours. Test done from AURALiC streamer to headphone amplifier, with cable change on RCA input.
How did you carry out the tests? What tracks did you use to test the cable?
Tested with parallel listening in rapid succession of:
- Classical: Overtures And Preludes, Richard Wagner; Symphony No. 1, Gustav Mahler
- Jazz: Kind of Blue, Miles Davis; Soulville, Ben Webster
- Rock: Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Deep Purple
Any differences from reference cables.

Have you encountered any?
The cable was remarkably balanced, with prominent midrange and slight attenuation at the extremes. In my opinion it is very suitable for classical and small jazz ensemble listening, less at ease on rock.

- Aesthetics
- Three-dimensionality

What would you improve?
