Dr. Matthew Deegan Upgrades to a Full Siltech Classic Legend 680 System

At Siltech, there is nothing more rewarding than hearing how our products help music lovers connect more deeply with their favourite recordings.

Following his earlier experiences with the Classic Legend 380 Series and the Classic Legend 680 Power Cord, long-time audiophile and musician Dr. Matthew Deegan recently completed the transition to a full Siltech Classic Legend 680 Series system, including interconnects, speaker cables and power cables.

After spending time with the complete cable loom in his system, Dr. Deegan shared his impressions.

A Complete System Approach

Having already experienced the performance of the Classic Legend 380 Series and the 680 Power Cord, Dr. Deegan decided to upgrade to a complete 680 Series cable loom.

According to him, the result was immediate:

“The 680 Series are for serious audiophiles who want the very best. You could spend much more, as I have previously with other brands, but nothing can compare to the precision of the silver and the manufacturing process that Siltech uses.”

After a short break-in period, he found that the cables worked together as a unified system, allowing music to unfold with greater coherence, clarity and realism.

Listening to Pink Floyd

One of the recordings that left a lasting impression was Pink Floyd’s iconic album The Dark Side of the Moon.

“Every note was there, from the deepest bass to the most delicate high frequencies. The guitar solo appeared perfectly centered, floating above the speakers with remarkable three-dimensionality. The voices were crystal clear and seemed to hang in the air, while the bass remained solid, muscular and completely controlled.”

What stood out most was the way complex musical passages became easier to follow without sacrificing scale or impact.

“Complicated passages suddenly sounded much simpler, yet larger, with every instrument occupying its own space.”

Precision, Scale and Musical Beauty

As both a lifelong musician and experienced audiophile, Dr. Deegan places particular importance on tonal beauty and musical engagement.

For him, the Classic Legend 680 Series delivered a rare combination of precision and emotion.

“The 680 Series gives the listener an experience in micro precision, a massive soundstage and a beauty of tone that I find stunning.”

He also praised the system’s ability to reproduce both subtle detail and explosive dynamics with equal confidence.

“Combined with powerful, instant dynamics, the result is a riveting experience. Your questions about the music are answered after listening to these cables.”

Sharing the Experience

The impact of the 680 Power Cord became especially clear when Dr. Deegan introduced it into a fellow audiophile’s system.

“I brought the 680 Power Cord to an audiophile friend of mine to try in his system. The improvement was immediately noticeable and he has since ordered one for himself.”

Thank You

We would like to sincerely thank Dr. Matthew Deegan for taking the time to share his experiences with the Siltech Classic Legend 680 Series and for his continued enthusiasm and support.

As both a dedicated musician and passionate audiophile, his detailed listening impressions offer valuable insight into what a complete Siltech cable loom can bring to a high-performance audio system.
