Drawing on new insights, the DALVIVO and INCANTO cables lead to a sonic result that has to be heard to be believed. Given the widely acclaimed sound qualities of our LUMINOSO and ESPRESSIVO cables, one would not anticipate that tonal colors can still be more luminous, vivid and 3D, that the projection of space can still be more precisely layered, and the background from which the music rises to be deeper and darker still, extending the dynamic range thereby even further. It all results in an enhanced ‚live’ sensation, a veracity and atmosphere one can touch. Listening becomes an exhilarating experience.
Made of first class materials and terminated with connectors that perfectly match the overall quality, these cables reflect the typical synergistic approach behind Ensemble designs.The uniqueness of these cables and their Swiss precision-made quality is shown by a warranty seal.
