Recommended Component 2024 – Stereophile
"Bracing and Powerful Right from the Start"
The new, appropriately named Silver Apex is the top silver cable from the sonic wizards at Analysis Plus. Silver Apex is constructed using pure silver over a stabilizing strand of oxygen-free copper. The conductor is woven into a special version of the patented Analysis Plus hollow oval geometry. These interconnects maintain the high frequency components of your audio source and truly have to be heard to be believed.
"Recommended Component" Honors
Stereophile honored the Silver Apex by awarding it the magazine's coveted Recommend Component status for 2024.
According to Stereophile, "The Analysis Plus Silver Apex uses as its conductor an oxygen-free copper 'stabilizing strand' covered with pure silver, in an arrangement the manufacturer describes, somewhat elliptically (haw) as 'a hollow oval cable inside a hollow oval cable inside a hollow oval cable,' said to be double shielded and thus quiet. And MF found it to be so: In his words, the Silver Apex is 'highly recommended!'"
According to Roger Kanno in his soundstagehifi.com review for July 15, 2018, "The sound of the new Silver Apex was bracing and powerful right from the start, while remaining relaxed and highly refined. There were noticeable improvements in nearly every aspect of my system’s performance."
A Hollow Oval Inside a Hollow Oval
Silver Apex uses the most advanced design yet from Analysis Plus, whose cables are universally acclaimed for their patented, groundbreaking hollow oval conductor geometry. Silver Apex goes a significant step further by using a hollow oval conductor inside a hollow oval conductor inside a hollow oval conductor! The result is a double-shielded design, resulting in a noise floor so low you can hear your amp breath. It’s a significant upgrade to standard cable design, creating a true reference cable suitable for the finest AV gear.
Analysis Plus Silver Apex is available with non-locking RCA connectors or Abbatron XLR connectors.
