Clearly this is a premium cable for premium systems – to connect a CD player to a DAC, perhaps.
But the Clearer Audio Optimus will win you around once you plug it in. It's a terrific sounding cable, outgunning the opposition for bass depth, midrange drive, treble purity and soundstage openness.
Its chunky Super Suppressor collars make it stand out – so does the brilliance of its sound.
