Classic Legend Series
The latest in Siltech’s Classic series of cables, succeeding the famous 25th year Classic Anniversary series, Classic Legend represents the culmination of over thirty years of research into conductor and insulation materials. Our engineers have achieved a massive improvement in technology, sound quality, and accurate timing. Despite its moderate pricing, the Classic Legend range has low capacitance, excellent high-frequency characteristics, and the least possible distortion. This translates to a superbly resolved sound with a smooth, balanced tonality and exceptional stereo imaging properties.
A new Legend is born
Classic Legend offers three different models within the series: 380, 680, and 880. The line includes interconnects, speaker, and power cables. The new G9 silver-gold conductors, the revolutionary 3-layer high-tech insulation together with the improved super silent shielding increase the already superior quality that audiophiles have come to expect from our cables. All of these innovations result in a superbly resolved sound with a smooth, balanced tonality and exceptional stereo imaging properties. Using technology trickled down from the flagship Crown range, the Classic Legend series outperforms previous Classic cables in technical measurements by 2.5 times. Legends are timeless and these cables are no exception. Investing in these cables will bring you legendary performance for years to come.

Testimonials
Within a few minutes of serious listening, my first note on the page was “Why haven’t I used Siltech Cables more often?"Alan Sircom, Hi-Fi+
I’m thrilled Siltech has landed on our shores. The Legend 880 is the tip of the spear for Siltech’s shot at the price/performance bull’s eye. The 880 indeed references level wire despite there being a few products further up the Siltech pecking order.Positive Feedback
You should at least try out the Siltech cables. These are among the best affordable interconnect cables that we know of at STEREO. Use the cable as a tool that does its work and a piece of utility, but also thanks to its playfulness and the associated high degree of fun.stereo.de
While I’m not generally into cables or tweaks, Siltech’s Classic Legend 680L speaker cables captivated me. Yes, their build quality is excellent, their materials clearly first-rate, and Siltech’s corporate narrative emphasizing measurements and iterative improvements in metallurgy is compelling.Soundstage!

Siltech can be said to be among a handful of companies that endeavor to progress cable interface technology with new materials and refined manufacturing. The result is a quality product with high tolerance aspects, model-to-model consistency, and, of course, high levels of signal integrity. With these new Siltech cables, all of that shows.Soundstage!

I was deeply impressed with the build quality of the Classic Legends. Closely examining each cable from one end to the other, I could find no imperfections, no gaps, no cut corners. Every cable is hand-built in the Netherlands, and it shows.Soundstage! Global
The new Siltech Classic Legend 680i also impresses with a striking, previously unknown neutrality. It makes music without harshness, but, just like the affordable Explorer SG 280i, with captivating joy.hifistatement.net
If you are not looking for a way to fine-tune your string, but on the contrary, you want its character and the character of your favorite recordings to stand out naturally, then Classic Legend is definitely an excellent choice.Hi-Fi Voice
G9 silver-gold
Classic Legend employs improved metallurgy - G9 is the 9th generation of Siltech’s proprietary silver-gold alloy with up to 2 times larger conductors than previous generations. This new range uses the company’s new G9 silver-gold conductors, the latest in a long line starting with the G1 which was a 99.99% pure solid silver wire found in the first cables. Silver boasts the best conductivity of any metal, and this actually improves over time. The new G9 wire alloys silver and gold together to fill in the micro-cracks of the crystal structure, as well as offering improved cable run-in. Far less time is now needed for the conductors and insulators to achieve their optimum performance – under 100 hours is now required, depending on the connectors.
Insulation and Shielding
Classic Legend introduces a new 3-layer high-tech insulation system. Its new revolutionary insulation package combines DuPont Teflon and PEEK for exceptionally low distortion and unlimited dynamics and results in 1.5 times increase in insulation with super silent shielding. It comfortably surpasses all previous Classic cables in technical measurements and subjective sound quality, with an uncannily natural, musical performance.
