Cable Art from CrystalConnect

by The Audio Beat | October 27, 2020

rystalConnect's  new Art Series flagship cables offer three levels of performance -- Monet, van Gogh, and da Vinci -- each named
after an artist who, in CrystalConnect's words, "fathered a revolution and set new artistic expression standards." The entire Art Series uses CrystalConnect's latest Infinite Crystal Silver (iCS) conductors and the same advanced construction, so users can easily combine cables from different levels to create a coherent cable loom.

Infinite Crystal Silver solid conductors feature a single, continuous crystal structure for increased conductivity and reduced micro distortions. But iCS has allowed CrystalConnect to reduce the number of signal conductors, reducing total distortion and capacitance and take advantage of the low-noise benefits of asymmetric grounding for the new interconnects. It has also led to the development of the entirely new Cross Balanced Construction for both the Art Series speaker cables and power cords. All together, iCS has, according to the company, delivered "results that are as measurable as they are audibly superior."

In terms of pricing, Art Series interconnects begin at €6500 per meter pair and increase to €18,000, speaker cables are €13,000 to €35,000 per two-meter pair, and power cords are €3600 to €11,000 per meter length. All prices quoted do not include VAT. Each level consists of a full range of interconnects, speaker cables, power cords, and digital cables, with USB and network cables and a power strip rounding out the extensive offerings.  Finally, CrystalConnect's NFC Product Authentication System, and the iOS/Android apps that go with it, creates a unique, readable identity for every Art Series product.
