Where Sound Becomes Art
The Crystal Cable Art Series is a high-end audio cable collection where advanced design, engineering and materials science are brought together with artistic expression.
Our flagship range comprises three distinct cable families: Monet, van Gogh and da Vinci. Each represents not only technical mastery, but an artistic philosophy — redefining what is possible in high-end audio.
Within the world of reference-level systems, Art Series products set new standards in precision, refinement and musical realism — drawing you closer to the beauty and emotion of music itself.
A genuine work of art and a near matchless component. Da Vinci is the benchmark-setting winner of The Absolute Sound’s 2021 Cable of the Year Award.

Design
The Art Series cables are unique in the high-end cable world.
They have been expressly designed to enhance the appearance of the hi-fi system that the cables are used with, as well as its sonic performance.
This is a case of form following function.
Designed to perform without compromise, the cable only looks as it does because of the superlative materials used, and the ingenious way in which they are packed together.
However, these are not mere fashion accessories.
They are designed for people who are passionate about sound and who expect the finest sonic results, as well as aesthetic beauty and ease of use.
Construction
Hi-fi cables are the bridge that makes it possible for a high-end system to achieve its full potential.
Only by understanding the science behind cable design could Crystal Cable build such a high-performance product in such a small package.
The Art Series uses Crystal Cable’s unique Infinite Crystal Silver conductor, paired with DuPont Teflon and PTFE insulation to deliver unmatched sound quality.
The transparent Teflon jacket adds to the glass-clear sound and serves as a window to the music, as the central conductor forms almost the entire cable.
Designed to perform without compromise, these cables personify the art of sound.
The Series
Monet
General
The Monet cables boast extremely low levels of distortion and outstanding musical reproduction. They may be the thinnest cables in Art series but because the signal and ground conductors are both made of our proprietary Infinite Crystal Silver (iCS), the optimal conductivity and lack of distortion allow you to hear more of the details in your music. Every Monet cable comes with an NFC tag attached that can be used to quickly and easily authenticate and register the cable using our own dedicated app.

Network
To achieve the best sound, the Crystal Cable network cables utilize the 100BASE-TX specification which supports a maximum speed of 100Mbps. Because of this it is important to set the ports of smart network switches to the correct speed or on auto. This feature is usually found in the port configuration menu of the network switch.

“The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.”
Monet
Van Gogh
General
The cables in the van Gogh range take the outstanding musical reproduction of the Monet cables up another notch. That’s because they’re slightly thicker with more signal and/or ground conductors made of our proprietary Infinite Crystal Silver (iCS) delivering improved conductivity and/or even lower levels of distortion. The result is a purity of sound that is only bettered by the flagship Art series da Vinci cables. Each van Gogh cable has an NFC tag attached that makes it quick and easy to authenticate and register the cable via our own dedicated app.

“There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.”
Van Gogh
Da Vinci
General
The da Vinci cables are the flagship models in the Art series. They offer the best possible music reproduction with the lowest possible distortion because they’re the thickest cables in the series and have the most ground conductors. The conductors are all made of our proprietary Infinite Crystal Silver (iCS) for the best possible conductivity. Using da Vinci cables in your audio system will unlock its full potential and reveal details in your music you never knew existed. Every da Vinci cable has an NFC tag attached that makes it quick and easy to authenticate and register the cable via our own dedicated app.
”A genuine work of art and a near matchless component. Da Vinci is the benchmark-setting winner of The Absolute Sound’s 2021 Cable of the Year Award.”
