About the Genesis
The Genesis series by Purist Audio Design is crafted with the goal of providing high-quality audio at a lower price point. It utilizes advanced computer models to design cables with finely stranded alloy conductors of copper and gold. The interconnects use a santoprene dielectric, while the speaker cables use PVC. The cables are available in various configurations, including RCA and XLR for interconnects, and they offer customization options for specific system needs.
