🆕 The White Magic Range 🆕
🆕 The White Magic Range 🆕
We’re excited to introduce our latest range of cables: White Magic — a breakthrough in conductor technology and cable architecture. These new analog and USB cables replace the previous Black Magic range, as they are simply better. (Note : we won’t be releasing White Magic Power Cords or Loudspeaker Cables, as the wire technology is not suitable).
White Magic wire is made from a completely new material, developed after extensive experimentation. It contains no copper, silver, gold, palladium, rhodium, carbon, or graphene — in fact, none of the usual materials found in high-end audio cables. We didn’t choose it for its rarity or conductivity — we chose it because it sounds phenomenal.
Many audiophiles know the tradeoffs between copper and silver: copper offers warmth and mids, silver brings air and bass extension — and the dream is to somehow combine their strengths. But this balance has always been elusive… until now. The first prototype White Magic cable surprised us. Months of development later — and some custom-drawn wire — we’re proud to launch the full White Magic range.

Black Magic ULTRA Speaker Cables
Black Magic ULTRA Speaker Cables
In 2021 we released our original Black Magic Speaker Cables to much acclaim. This was due to a number of unique design features and techniques that made them sound just awesome.
We've improved and refined these techniques and the result is the Ultra Speaker cable.
From Hi-Fi Advice review "The bass still pressurizes the room more than any other cable I have heard, but instead of some of the “extra ballsiness” of the regular Black Magic cable, the Black Magic Ultra cable now offers a newfound level of fluidity and refinement while the treble is also opener and airier"
Black Magic Speaker Cables
Black Magic Speaker Cables
Black Magic Speaker Cables are a completely new design that embodies symmetry and balance.
From Hi-Fi Advice Review: "I am much impressed with these cables and if you ask me, the Mad Scientist has really outdone himself. They provide a sound that seems to have been lost in so many other brands. These days, cables seem to be all about being more and more polished and refined, to the point that the musical message gets glossed over and the raw energy is lost. The Black Magic cables may be highly accurate and superbly neutral, but they do not sound damped or over-controlled in any way. Rather, they fully conduce the full extent of the lyrical and “singing” qualities of every recording"
Black Magic Network (Ethernet) Cable -- Regular and ULTRA versions
Black Magic Network (Ethernet) Cable -- Regular and ULTRA versions
The Mad Scientist is pleased to introduce new Black Magic Network Cable designed for connecting music PCs, streamers etc to your network.
Black Magic Network Cable will have a similar magnitude improvement as the Black Magic USB cable (I can hear the so-called "objectivists" chortling "yeah right - none"). But these folks can't explain why I can pick these cables blind with a bucket over my head..
The ULTRA version adds stage 2 screening, borrowed from our USB cable.
