We have teamed up with Ensemble AG to bring you an exciting competition. Ensemble’s INCANTO and DALVIVO cables, the fruit of 30 years of cable design, were reviewed in issue 130 of Hi-Fi+ by Alan Sircom who wrote: “The Ensemble sound is not about detail or expansive soundstage, although it’s actually extremely good at presenting a wide and deep soundstage, made up of extremely detailed, solid-sounding instruments. Instead it’s more about the gestalt, the music as a complete, legato, flowing entity, where many of its rivals tend to go more for the fleeting musical moment… Highly recommended!”
Our first lucky winner will receive a 2.5m pair of DALVIVO loudspeaker cables, worth £1,440, together with a £690 1.5m pair of INCANTO interconnect cables, forming a competition worth £2,130. Our runner-up will also receive a £690 1.5m pair of INCANTO interconnect cables, together with a £680 1.5m DALVIVO power cord, making a runner’s-up prize of £1,370.
