Building a home audio system from the ground up or making a system more musically satisfying by upgrading some components should be fun and rewarding, but it’s complicated. There is no single component that makes up a great home audio system. It’s really all about how everything works together to create the listening experience. Making everything work together is challenging because mistakes can be costly and can result in less than satisfactory overall system performance.
Because cables, power cords, and power conditioning are largely hidden, they are the least understood and most underestimated components in a system. Cables, power cords, and power conditioners, however, occupy every part of every system, and as a whole have as much or more to do with the overall musical character of a system than any single core component. The benefits of upgrading core components like amplifiers and speakers also can’t be fully realized unless the cables connecting them are up to the task of working optimally with them. To build a great system, regardless of budget considerations or aspirations, requires putting together a system plan that includes the right performance level of cables, power cords, and power conditioning.
This Transparent System Explorer can help you get started on your journey, and Transparent and our Dealers can provide even more guidance to help you avoid costly wrong turns. Transparent and Transparent Dealers have decades of experience building systems, and we share a passion to help customers put together better systems and get more musical enjoyment as their systems grow and evolve.
Transparent applied the techniques and design insights gained during the development of our ultimate design, MAGNUM OPUS, to our entire collection of products. Starting with basic interconnects and speaker cables, each Transparent product has inherited its share of MAGNUM OPUS DNA. Because of our decades of research and development, Transparent is able to provide predictable and measured levels of musicality at each performance level.
Transparent is different from the rest. We don’t just offer better materials and a different type of sound and call it a performance upgrade. Progressing from one Transparent performance level to the next provides a more musically involving listening experience, not just different sound. With Transparent, it’s easy and rewarding to improve your system over time.
Don’t worry.
Your journey toward “you are there” listening experiences is safe, sure, and affordable with Transparent. The Transparent Upgrade Program protects your original Transparent investments by providing generous trade-in values toward the purchase of cables and power conditioning at the next level of musicality or higher.
