We have teamed up with our friends at Hammertone Audio to bring an excitingcompetition with four chances to win fantastic Allnic Cables. Nicholas Ripley reviewed the Allnic Mu-7R interconnect cable and the ZL‑3000 loudspeaker cable and power cord in issue 159 of Hi-Fi+. He wrote, “Allnic uses Mu-metal as a braided shield in its interconnect cables both RCA and XLR), which protects the signal from both electric and magnetic noise… claimed to be a world-first in audio. Allnic’s MRCT, or ‘Mid-Range Control Technology’ uses metal plating along the length of the cable for what Allnic calls ‘slight midrange braking’, thick-gauge wire for low frequencies, and additional capacitance for more accurate high frequencies.”
He concluded by saying, “I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing with the Allnic cables. They are rewarding, and consistent enough to say universally so. The speed of attack and the silent backgrounds, alongside an intrinsic sense of getting out of the way of the rest of the system, are extremely satisfying and seductive properties. It’s hard not to be impressed with these Korean cables.”
Prizes:
• 2 Å~ 2m ZL-3000 power cord, worth $2,800
• A 3m pair of Allnic ZL-3000 loudspeaker cables, worth $2,500
• A 1.5m pair of Allnic MU-7R interconnect cables, worth $2,500
