Black cat cable lectraline XE

medjohn

Finally have some time to test the cable.
After boiling it with Proburn cooker for 48 hours
I sat down to listen with my Magnepan gear
I use the cable solely from CD to Pre amp.

CD used: Diana Krall SHM Platinum. Look of love
cables compared: Crystal cable micro RCA. Siltech princess XLR.
Thoughts:
The lectraline XE is quite analytical. Give quite a lot of details. The highs are extended and good baseline but not strong base.

I don't have a lot of RCA, so I compared with my Crystal cable micro ( 1m)
Crystal micro also a bit thin, yet it gives a bit more air

When I put back my princess, the soundstage suddenly becomes much more 3D. The mids is much much more lively and thicker.
But mind you, princess = 10 x lectraline XE. So lectraline XE is thinner, its totally understandable.

At this price point, I think it's much better than a lot of "so call silver " cables or even brand names copper cables.

Maybe after further burnt in, some other thoughts might come up.

上星期借了一對XE SC回家（據說我是首名試用者）。跟非XE（即Lectraline SC，我已有一對）比較，XE的中、低頻密度明顯高很多，音像的形體更飽滿，很有衝擊力，動態就是強樍，惟相對沒有非XE的清爽飄逸與高貴，弱音細節沒那麼明顯。
