The ''crystal cables'' is established by the wife of the Siltech
owner. She obviously noticed what kind of money is involved
with cables and decided to try for her own but with the idea that
(sometime) ''less is better'' which explains the thickness difference
between both brands. I am not sure if she has ever heard about
the old Alchemist. !00 of those are ever appointed by the German
Keizer with the task to turn German lead, with which Germany
was richly rewarded, into gold because the same mother nature
totally forget the ''gold standard'' . The Keizer's as well the
Alchemist dream, alas, never realized. However the new Alchemist
deed succeed to turn , not lead, but well copper into gold. This
explains the price of some of those cables.
