Eight
years ago we set out to create a cable that would make
a difference in one’s sound, whether it is in
the studio or the stage.
Read What Others Are Saying:
"Accusound Triplex vs. Zaolla Silvercore
shootout...To my ear, the winner is... Accusound! I found
the Accusound Triplex to have the same amount of detail
as Zaolla in the high frequencies minus the ringing effect
around 16-18kHz. The Accusound provides a very full and
rich sound while still remaining faithful to the highs,
mids, and lows. Accusound cable seems to have an even response,
but still offers an engaging and exciting listen. Accusound
cable also has the ability to give a tone, not just sizzle
to high frequencies such as Steve Gad's ride during the
drum solo on Aja. Also, at the beginning of Deacon Blues
I noticed a thickness from the attack of the drumstick
on the ride while listening to the Accusound that was noticeably
thinner and tinny on the Zaolla. I also compared the differences
with my other reference cd's such as David Bowie's Let's
Dance and Steely Dan's Royal Scam. On Royal Scam, Kid Charlemagne
via Accusound better resolved the tone of the p-bass, which
was impressive since this is the boomiest bass sound on
any Steely Dan songs I have, and normally this bass tone
is masked by low frequencies and overtones. On this track
via Accusound, I could really hear the note better, for
it was tighter and more articulated. Zaolla just made the
same bass tone less boomy, but really didn't do anything
to reveal the tone. On Bowie's Let's Dance, the cymbals
on Ricochet were smooth but wet while using the Accusound,
not strident, just detailed and very smooth."
"I felt as
if the Accusound had a very good reach into the low-end
while resolving the actual tone and note, not just bass
for the sake of low-end. The highs on the Accusound also
exhibited better depth and imaging than the Zaolla. The
midrange, while listening to guitars and vocals, displayed
defined lowmids and smooth midrange detail on the Accusound,
while the Zaolla just offered clarity without the much
desired overtones when dealing with digital waveforms.
I feel that the Accusound is a wonderful product and wouldn't
hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking to hear a difference
in cable quality."

"Now, I have been
told in the past that cables are cables, and that "it's
a poor craftsman that blames his tools," and so on
and so forth... However, through long experience I firmly
believe that your signal is only as good as its weakest
link, and I can only go by what my ears tell me. I often
use a Soundelux ELAM-251 for lead vocals, and to great
effect...love this mic. On the always sound advice of Steve
here at Accusound, I tried out his new HD-7 tube mic cable
with the 251 on my last vocal session (last week as a matter
of fact). Some of the vocals were tracked with the cable
provided with the mic, and some with the HD-7 cable...and
the results were unquestionable. The vocals cut with HD-7
cable were a good bit more defined and especially open
in the upper high-end "air" frequency range...it
made me fall in love with the mic all over again. And just
like with all my other Accusound mic and instrument cables,
the same people who like to tell me cables don't matter
are now asking to borrow them..."just in case" HA!

"Whatever is going on, the Silver
Studio Pro is a sweet sounding cable that's crisp and well
balanced from to bottom. We've used it quite a lot lately
in our gear tests and found it lends a richness to overdriven
tones and a touch of warmth to cleaner sounds, and just
has a great sense of presentation that makes everything
sound a little more detailed and open."

"What
a difference in tone! The Silver Studio Pro with Amphenol
ends is an amazing cable. Rich detail and harmonics. Highs
that aren't harsh, smooth detailed mids and tight bass.
I used to notice a slight high end lag when playing in
the upper registers but not with the Accusound. I get complete
uniformity across all strings and frets. Thanks Steve!!"

The Accusound Mic Cable
sounds better than any of the other high end cables I have
tried. I also use the instrument cables exclusively and
have just upgraded the studio's lines with Accusound. Any
client of mine that uses the Accusound cables is blown
away and ends up purchasing the cables for themselves.
Thanks for a great product!

"In a world were cables are cables and
no matter how you color the ends or what hip name you give
them again, a cable is a cable, is a cable. Until now,
finally a cable company has put the time and expense into
building a cable with innovation at the forefront putting
the needs of the discerning ear ahead of the bottom line.
Accusound Cable Company is that company."
"A few weeks ago
a package of cables were delivered to AMG headquarters
right out of the box the cables look professional and made
well. My curiosity quickly moved past the good looks and
right to the task of plugging the cables into a full stack
for a test drive. The results were immediately clear, as
in tone clear and rich. Pinch harmonics lasted longer,
dive bombs no longer broke up and when distorted full bluntal
tonal mastery was achieved. I ended up changing the settings
on my 100 watt all tube amp slightly because I was able
to hear more detail and dial in the amp a little finer.
This was a watershed moment for me as I looked around at
the dozen or so other cables lying on the floor like old
cars in a bone yard. I know I could never go back now that
I have had the Accusound experience."
"The difference is
made possible partly due to the premium components but
the science behind the cable also plays an important role
in the cables ability to transfer a signal quicker and
with more strength at the transfer points. The harmonic
details are the most telling proof in the cables superior
performance. Tone chasers finally have something to chase
that will not leave them eating tag soup. If your tone
hunt is important to you then Accusound Cables are truly
a trophy worth the effort."

"I can't believe
the difference your mic cables can make to my recordings!
I have gone through a few upgrades to my personal studio
over the years (RADAR w/Nyquist, Neotek console, Manley,
Emperical Labs, etc) and AccuSound's mic cable is near
the top for positive impact made to my recordings. I have
used Mogami, Canare, and Monster cables and Accusound is
the clear winner in my setup. I immediately noticed clearer
high frequencies and less mud in the mid low frequencies.
The "haze" I
had experienced with my previous recordings was gone. The
tracks stack better, take EQ better, and compress better.
Who knew a $50 purchase would make a $5,000 difference.
I am looking forward to replacing all of my mic cables
to AccuSound."

"I A/B'd the 20
ft. guitar cable with a Mogami of equal length. Wow, what
a difference. Fuller sonic range and I seemed to gain a
couple of db in volume. I ended up in a store with a bunch
of fellow muso's standing around listening through different
amps, cabs, etc... We had fun and the accusound cable won
every time."

"The Accusound™ ACC-30-XM
mic cable does precisely what it was engineered to do,
-namely transfer flux with all the musical accuracy and
detail intact. What was entirely unexpected was the depth
of bass and seamless clarity throughout the frequency range.
--I've got mine!
