I replaced my MG Audio Planus III copper speaker cables with the Amadi Maddie Signature and liked the sound even more plus the Amadis are much easier to live with--not fragile.
Review: Amadi Maddie Signature Interconnect
Category: Cables
This review is on the following Amadi cable products;
Maddie Signature IC's
Phil Reference power cords
Maddie Signature speaker cable
My entire system is now wired with these Amadi cables. I started off auditioning one Phil Reference power cord and was taken back immediately at the sound improvement in my system. They replaced a BPT power cord and the music flowed with so much more detail, space and air. It was as if I removed a blanket from my speakers! Then, I ordered two more Phil Reference power cords and now my system was really sounding great.
The bass these cables help deliver is so tight and resolving. I hear bass articulation as never before in my system. Powerful, deep and so wonderfully articulate. This is the sweet spot we all work towards with bass and I can tell you these cables will help get you there.
What I like most however is how smooth and extended the mids and highs are. I cannot deal with even the slightest trace of hardness, glare or brightness. I simply cannot stand it! Well, these power cords are easily the most natural and resolving cords I have placed into my system. Voices are sweet and airy, stage nuances are revealed that were literally absent before. Music has the weight and body it should with a natural tone that is so inviting and at ease.
The builder shared with me these power cords are made from a combination of both silver and copper conductors.
Well, then I had to try the Amadi line of pure silver IC's and speaker cables. Philip calls this line his Maddie Signature. Let me say from the very start here that these are very special and outclass everything I have experienced in IC cables to date. To this point I had never been a huge fan of silver cables. Many sounded thin, whitewashed and lacked body. This had been my consistent experience with silver. I was a copper guy, solid core copper to be exact.
Well these Maddie Signature cables changed all that. No copper cable I have tried can match the resolution and clarity of the Maddie Signature. These silver cables helped my speakers disappear with music coming out of thin air, if you will. Voice and instruments emerge from a black, black background and fill the space with boxless, beautiful music. Ya, these sound beautiful and the music they reveal is arresting. Arresting in that you become transfixed to the music and simply can't pull yourself away.
Smooth and extended highs with the kind of grain free, glare free, noise free extension I thought was not possible. The mids are full and rich with a natural tone and timbre that invite and never ever attack. Yes, I find these Maddie Signature cables a revelation.
Next I auditioned the Maddie Signature speaker cables. Multiple 20 gauge pure silver conductors. My comments are exactly the same as the Maddie Signature IC's. Yes, I purchased them in a nano second folks. Oh my, my music is now so right, so beautiful, so wonderfully contenting.
What is astounding to me is the prices Philip sells these state of the art cables for. Make no mistake my fellow Agoners, these are world class cables that command respect and attention. I am thrilled with my total Amadi wired system. I have never in my 35 years of audiophiledom had one brand of cable throughout my system. With Amadi, I had no choice as they are that darn good.
For those who wonder what kind of music I listen to, here you go....
