The Tellurium Q Ultra Silver III XLR interconnect cable is one of Tellurium Q’s “hidden gems” possibly because of the knee jerk though that they are called silver so have a harsh or fatiguing edge. NO not at all. Put the name to one side (some days we wish we had) and you find a beautifully detailed, smooth and natural presentation that is a very definite step up in performance from the award-winning Ultra Black II. Over shadowed and overlooked but surprises as soon as you plug it into your system.
