What reviewers think

Bloggers and YouTubers have tried this product—so we've summarized their strongest opinions below. Links to full reviews follow.

Product Strengths

  • The Nanofiber cable has the most glorious midrange and is the most relaxed in the Stealth Audio Cables lineup
  • It destresses the music experience even more powerfully than other Stealth cables
  • The Nanofiber cable could be the perfect solution to tame the etch of solid-state systems
  • It is completely quiet and lacks metal in the signal path
  • It injects a palpable dose of midrange glory, helping transistor electronics mellow out and forget its aggression

Product Considerations

  • The Nanofiber deliberately avoids the last degree of air, overtone spray, and incision power
  • It isn't as preternaturally resolved as the Indra or Metacarbon
  • It siphons off the top layer of energetic charge, resulting in a warmer sound
  • There's a slight rounding over of leading edges when compared to other models

Comparisons (according to reviewers)

  • The Indra is neutrality incarnate and disappears entirely, but the Nanofiber is sweeter
  • The Metacarbon has HF shimmer and leading-edge speed lacking in the Nanofiber
  • Nanofiber doesn't perform at their exalted standards of magnifying power

Takeaway: The Nanofiber cable could be worth buying for those seeking a more relaxed and sweeter sound, particularly for taming the edge of solid-state systems and adding midrange emphasis. It makes the music experience more destressed than the other wires.

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.

Manufacturer details

The Nanofiber analog interconnect signal path is as straight and clean as it gets: it is free of any kind of solder or crimp because it is composed of very thin conductive carbon fibers (nano-fibers) which directly transform into the center pins of the proprietary STEALTH RCA or XLR connectors at the ends of the cables; the connectors are actually integrated into the cables.

There is absolutely no metal of any kind in the signal carrying part of these cables. The return (shield) however is made of metal (multiple thin OFC strands) in both RCA and XLR configurations, and because of that, the Nanofiber cables are as silent and hum-free as the best conventional - i.e. all metal - interconnects.
