This Ixos cable delivers a muscular sound with a decent sense of slam and attack in lower frequencies.
However, it doesn't sound particularly musical or refined and for the money we'd expect greater detail and dynamic clout.
The cable allows for a relatively detailed picture, but colours appear overly rich and unnatural.
