PW Audio Constellation Series Cancer Shielding Silver Gold Upgrade Cable
An Unexpected Generational Shift - PW Audio Cancer
PW Audio's cable products can be categorized into a "main line" and "branch lines." The main line features PW's most renowned copper cables, meticulously crafted with high purity and complex structures that elevate the sound quality of pure copper to its zenith. Additionally, options such as silver alloy, pure silver, and copper-silver hybrids are available, ensuring that every customer can experience the quality and sound philosophy that PW Audio is known for.
In recent years, the cable industry has seen an explosion of innovation, evolving from material selection to structural advancements. Manufacturers have introduced technologies like multi-layer shielding, multi-layer insulation, and Litz designs to achieve breakthroughs in traditional wire cores. Peter, with his keen market insight, had already implemented shielding layer structures on various wire cores several years ago. PW Audio was among the pioneers in applying different shielding materials to enhance electronic flow and use them as tuning mechanisms. Therefore, PW Audio is regarded as a leader in the application and expertise of shielding structures.
Transformative Changes in Cable Offerings
This accomplishment has led to transformative changes in PW Audio's various cable offerings. The main line is no longer solely focused on materials; rather, it integrates advanced shielding structures with winding techniques. This innovation benefits both new wires and existing materials, exemplified by the newly released Cancer cable, which utilizes the once-celebrated Silver Gold! By employing new manufacturing techniques to create a silver alloy wire core combined with PW Audio's highest-grade shielding structure, Shielding Pro, it effectively eliminates interference and brings forth a lush tonal quality.
A Taste of Nostalgia - The Unique Character of Silver Alloy Wire
The sound profile of the original Silver Gold was highly distinctive; it had the ability to smooth out headphones that were overly aggressive in their presentation. However, like many alloy cables, its personality was quite pronounced, often overshadowing the inherent qualities of the headphones themselves. As such, Silver Gold is typically better suited for experienced users who can deftly pair different sources and headphones to craft their ideal listening experience.
While Cancer employs a Silver Gold silver alloy wire core, the benefits of Shielding Pro alongside the soldering technique create a sound that is truly eye-opening.
Understanding Shielding Pro Structure
For those unfamiliar with the Shielding Pro structure, let me provide a brief clarification. One might assume that shielding consists simply of wrapping a few extra layers around the wire, but the reality is that the shielding layer structure enhances the electronic flow of distinct conductors, impacting the resultant sound of the wire itself. Consequently, the primary development goal is to identify a versatile shielding "formula" that can be employed across different materials.
Furthermore, since headphone cables are portable, comfort in wear is paramount. Striking a balance between flexibility and shielding effectiveness poses a significant challenge for manufacturers. The remarkable aspect of Shielding Pro lies in its independent shielding structure for each core, which not only maintains flexibility but also achieves an exceptional balance in sound quality.
Performance Characteristics
Investing in high-risk ventures can yield considerable rewards. Following the draw of the Sagittariuses series, the combination of Cancer's silver alloy cable and Shielding Pro is nothing short of impressive. It retains the refined tonal quality and luster of Silver Gold while enhancing sound clarity and sharpness.
In terms of bass response, Cancer showcases PW Audio’s signature excellent sub-bass reproduction and remarkable speed. The influence of the silver and gold alloy endows it with a pronounced impact and powerful finish. The depth is comparatively lighter than other models, conveying a lively sonic character while maintaining rhythm without compromising detail—truly capturing the gentle essence of Cancer.
The mid-high frequencies are bright yet not piercing; they invigorate listeners much like a chilled can of cola on a scorching summer day—refreshing and revitalizing!
