Siltech – Classic Legend Series
The latest in Siltechs Classic series of cables, Legend represents the culmination of over thirty years of research into conductor and insulation materials. Our engineers have achieved a massive improvement in technology, sound quality, and accurate timing. Despite its moderate pricing, the Classic Legend range has low capacitance, excellent high-frequency characteristics, and the least possible distortion. This translates to a superbly resolved sound with a smooth, balanced tonality and exceptional stereo imaging properties.
A new Legend is born
Classic Legend offers three different models within the series: 380, 680, and 880. The line includes interconnects, speaker, and power cables. The new G9 silver-gold conductors, the revolutionary 3-layer high-tech insulation together with the improved super silent shielding increase the already superior quality that audiophiles have come to expect from our cables. All of these innovations result in a superbly resolved sound with a smooth, balanced tonality and exceptional stereo imaging properties. Using technology trickled down from the flagship Crown range, the Classic Legend series outperforms previous Classic cables in technical measurements by 2.5 times. Legends are timeless and these cables are no exception. Investing in these cables will bring you legendary performance for years to come.
G9 silver-gold
Classic Legend employs improved metallurgy – G9 is the 9th generation of Siltech’s proprietary silver-gold alloy with up to 2 times larger conductors than previous generations. This new range uses the company’s new G9 silver-gold conductors, the latest in a long line starting with the G1 which was a 99.99% pure solid silver wire found in the first cables. Silver boasts the best conductivity of any metal, and this actually improves over time. The new G9 wire alloys silver and gold together to fill in the micro-cracks of the crystal structure, as well as offering improved cable run-in. Far less time is now needed for the conductors and insulators to achieve their optimum performance – under 100 hours is now required, depending on the connectors.
Insulation and Shielding
Classic Legend introduces a new 3-layer high-tech insulation system. Its new revolutionary insulation package combines DuPont Teflon and PEEK for exceptionally low distortion and unlimited dynamics and results in 1.5 times increase in insulation with super silent shielding. It comfortably surpasses all previous Classic cables in technical measurements and subjective sound quality, with an uncannily natural, musical performance.
