If other cables opt for a low-profile look, the Prowire takes the opposite approach, with flashily golden terminations.
The more business-like braided black jacket redresses the balance somewhat.
Sonically, this cable exhibits more poise than rivals, but that greater control is undermined by some edge to higher frequencies and a vocal presentation that's nowhere near as assured as we'd like.
