Analog Cable Crystal Cable Micro2 Diamond IC
Description
The Crystal Cable Diamond Series 2 cable range with know-how inherited from the flagship Art Series
Diamond Series 2 is the new generation of the entry-level Crystal Cable range, delivering a markedly higher sonic standard than the original Diamond Series while remaining at an accessible price point. The range is built on a combination of compact construction and engineering solutions derived from the development of the flagship Art Series, making the brand's know-how available to a wider circle of audiophile systems.
The technical foundation of the range lies in the manufacturer's long-standing investment in research and development in the field of conductor metallurgy, conductive core construction, shielding and insulation materials. It is precisely this detailed understanding of the relationship between material, conductor geometry and insulation that defines the character of signal transfer and makes it possible to carry a substantial part of the quality of the more expensive ranges into a more modestly priced execution.
The result is signal transfer with a low level of distortion and consistently legible detail, which in a system contributes to more intelligible reproduction and more precise instrument localisation. Diamond Series 2 is therefore a solution for listeners seeking the brand's proven construction without the compromise of a flagship price tag.

Specification
Crystal Cable
The Dutch company Crystal Cable has been manufacturing top-quality cables since 2004. It is led by Gabi van der Kleij-Rijnveld, and the brand was established as a sister company to the renowned manufacturer Siltech. Today, both companies share development and manufacturing facilities in the Dutch town of Elst, whilst each retains its own distinct character. Crystal Cable was founded following the development of a unique silver and gold alloy, which made it possible to create exceptionally thin, flexible and elegant cables. Their minimalist design need not be hidden behind furniture, yet they deliver sound quality that ranks amongst the very best in the world.
All Crystal Cable products are created with a single aim: to deliver a listening experience that comes as close as possible to a live concert. Silver and gold alloy conductors are complemented by multi-layer insulation and Kapton® shielding, which protect the signal from interference. The product range includes signal, speaker, power, digital, USB and network cables, as well as earthing bridges and cables for headphones and portable devices. The company also develops its own speakers with great success. All products are designed in-house and handcrafted in Elste to strict standards, which is why they connect you to music like few others can.
