TELLURIUM Q Ultra Silver II XLR interconnect cable

The Tellurium Ultra Silver II XLR cable is a surprising cable: because of its name, the common assumption is that it must sound aggressive or fatiguing. Think again! Forget this prejudice. You will discover exceptionally precise, smooth and natural sound, clearly superior to that of the multi-award-winning Ultra Black II.

The treble shows great finesse and an excellent rendering of harmonics. The midrange is perfectly articulated, with remarkable instrument clarity and precision. The bass is fast and well defined, giving good note readability even in the deepest bass.

Dynamics are excellent, with a clear sense of the contrast between soft and powerful passages, not forgetting a magnificent soundstage with remarkable instrument separation and precise stereo imaging.
