Element Copper-Tungsten-Silver Interconnects – RCA/XLR with Enigma Tuning Bullets

Element Copper Tungsten Silver combines
the best traits of each element for the most balanced and highest
resolution interconnect in the Element Series. Imagine the low
frequency authority of copper, the holographic soundstaging of Tungsten
and the refinement and resolution of silver combined in one cable.
This is by far the highest performance interconnect we have ever
manufactured excluding the Galileo System interconnects which are
nearly 10 times the Element CTS’s price and arguably this is the
highest performance interconnect option your can choose from any
manufacturer at any price including flagship products from our
competitors. Add a Galileo Universal Interconnect Cell and you truly
have a state-of-the-art interconnect that comes very close to our
flagship Galileo System cables.

• Combines the best traits of Copper and Tungsten and Silver
• Silver delivers the highest level of frequency information
• The most balanced of all Element Series cables

Listening notes and findings for Element Silver:

“Silver has a deep soundstage in a well
rounded polite and non offensive presentation. Absolutely no glare or
grain in the upper registers. Balance is the word that comes to mind”

Of course silver is only one of three
elements found in Element Copper / Tungsten / Silver. For more
information on how each of these three elements stack up visit the
Element Series Overview page here

 Enigma Tuning Bullets

As with all Element Series cables start
with Grey Enigma Tuning Bullets first and allow the cable to settle in
for at least 48 hours before experimenting with Silver and Black
tuning options. If after 48 hours you wish to open up the sound field
and upper registers substitute Silver bullets or if your system
requires more warmth, try listening with the Black bullets.
