The Forte
The Forte is quite like the Lyric in that it’s using two audio-optimized conductors for the audio signal and the shield to block noise from entering them. What you hear is more an indication of what other cables take away from the signal path than anything Forte adds to it. Compared with typical cables one could be led to believe that the Forte adds a very slight gain stage to the signal path; in reality other cables are muting information across a range of frequencies. The Forte is transparent and neutrally balanced to work why any associated equipment. There is no trying to “match” the right cable for what you’re connecting it to. With the Forte you simply hear your associated equipment and music as it is. A key difference between the Lyric and the Forte is the similar difference between the Melody and Reveal. The negative effects of strand interaction are solved by insulating the individual strands of the conductor instead of using single solid core conductors. What does this mean? Reference-level playback and recording in a flexible and rugged package suitable for any environment.
