Gold Note Firenze Il Magnifico 2 XLR to 2 XLR Balanced Audio Cable
The Gold Note Firenze Il Magnifico 2 XLR to 2 XLR Balanced Audio Cable is the ultimate benchmark in interconnect technology, offering the highest levels of audio clarity and precision out of Gold Note's Firenze cables. Designed with 7 solid core conductors of pure silver, each individually housed in Elastollan® oil-filled insulation, it ensures perfect damping, temperature control, and zero vibration. This advanced construction delivers a remarkably detailed, yet warm and natural sound without the harshness often associated with silver-plated cables.
The Magnifico features active grounding technology with two additional silver conductors connected to an external battery-powered system. This unique design eliminates magnetic and electrical interferences (RFI/EMI), providing an incredibly quiet background and preserving the purity of the audio signal. With 16 pF/mt capacitance, 0.5 μH inductance, and ultra-low resistance of 0.0001 Ω, it guarantees distortion-free, high-fidelity performance.
Custom-made nickel-free, rhodium-treated XLR connectors enhance conductivity and durability, while the dual shielding of copper, chrome, and glass fiber ensures robust protection. At 20mm in diameter, the cable combines cutting-edge engineering with sleek aesthetics, finished in black with gold-plated accents. Manufactured by Gold Note in Italy, Firenze Il Magnifico is the pinnacle of high-end cables, delivering unmatched sound quality for the most discerning audiophiles.
Here is what Gold Note say about the Firenze Il Magnifico XLR Audio Cable
Firenze il Magnifico is the best interconnect cable we have ever designed. The cable features 7 solid core conductors in pure silver with a 1mmq section. Each conductor is singularly insulated in a pipe made of Elastollan and filled with oil to control temperature and provide perfect damping. Two additional pure silver conductors are terminated with external plugs and are connected to the external battery for active grounding. The special active grounding design of the Magnifico perfectly insulates the audio signal, delivering and incredible noiseless background with rich, natural details.
Despite common beliefs about silver conductors, Firenze il Magnifico delivers a warm and extremely detailed sound that’s never harsh. This is thanks to the conductors, which are made of pure silver – unlike so many cables that actually use silver-plated copper conductors (those sound, in fact, very harsh). On top of that, pure silver guarantees additional benefits as burning-in the conductors results in improved sound quality, exactly the opposite to what happens with silver-plated copper cables.
Firenze Il Magnifico is the ultimate benchmark for interconnect cables, made with pure silver conductors that are treated cryogenically. The conductors are arranged in our proprietary geometry and individually sealer in Elastollan pipe with a special thick mineral oil as a dielectric medium to control temperature and dampen any vibration.
We use exclusively select components specifically designed for High-End audio applications, and the best materials available to craft our cables by hand. Il Magnifico features a genuine balanced design and custom made nickel-free connectors treated with pure rhodium. The active grounding design leverages a battery-powered system to perfectly shield the cable. The insulation provided virtually guarantees zero magnetic and electrical interferences (RFI/EMI) preserving the purity of the audio signal.
