What reviewers think
Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.
What are hifi reviews useful for? (1) Identifying products you should demo in person at a dealer. (2) Learning which products reviewers unanimously praise as the best they've heard (this means they probably are legitimately great). (3) Identifying a product's attributes that satisfy your idiosyncratic needs and tastes. Beyond that, we often discount what reviewers say because they heap praise on most products—and are often apprehensive about publishing strong criticism or comparisons between products. Further, they seldom have more than a few products on-hand, often relying on their memories to compare past products. Always listen for yourself.

Larger conductors carry up to 4 times the maximum power of the 380P power cable, and its insulation and shielding packages are substantially improved for better sound.The Classic Legend cables are designed for people who demand an excellent performance-to-price ratio. This is possible thanks to the combination of Siltech’s superb G9 silver-gold alloy metallurgy, and a class-leading insulation and shielding package using top-quality materials. It is the result of four decades of research into cable design, honed by exhaustive measurements, testing, and auditioning.The latest in a long line of Classic cables stretching back thirty years, Classic Legend boasts vanishingly low distortion and exceptional interference rejection considering its accessible price. It’s this combination of superconductivity and relative immunity to electrical and mechanical noise that makes it sound so special.
