"Die Serie folgt einem klaren Prinzip: Ein Kabel soll nichts hinzufügen, aber ebenso wenig wegnehmen. Genau das gelingt der S25 Reihe in eindrucksvoller Weise. Die Signalführung bleibt jederzeit stabil, neutral und störungsfrei, ganz gleich, ob es um feinste dynamische Schattierungen, komplexe Impulsverläufe oder eine detailreiche räumliche Abbildung geht."

"Besonders bemerkenswert ist das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. In einer Branche, in der hochwertige Verbindungstechnik häufig mit erheblichen Aufschlägen verbunden ist, positioniert sich die S25 Serie bewusst als faire, technisch begründete Alternative zwischen ambitionierter Mittelklasse und klassischem High-End."

"Im Gesamtergebnis erreicht die S25 Serie eine Wertung von 9 von 10 Punkten – ein Ausdruck dafür, wie konsequent, ausgewogen und praxisnah in-akustik dieses Projekt umgesetzt hat. Die Serie ist damit nicht nur ein hervorragender Einstieg ins audiophile Segment, sondern auch eine langlebige Basis für anspruchsvolle HiFi-Ketten, die auf technische Substanz statt kosmetischer Effekte setzen."

Kurz gesagt: Die in-akustik S25 Serie des deutschen Spezialisten in-akustik bietet alles, was hochwertige Verbindungstechnik leisten soll – und verzichtet auf alles, was sie nicht leisten muss. Michael Holzinger | sempre-audio.at | S25 Speaker 425 | S25 Connect 212 Audio & Digital

"Man kann der Veränderung zuhören – so, wie man einem Schmetterling, der gerade aus dem Kokon geschlüpft ist, beim Entfalten seiner Flügel zuschauen kann [...] Ich hatte bisher noch kein Kabel im Test, das nach so kurzer Zeit so "fertig" klang."

"Dynamisch lässt das In-akustik Speaker 425 nichts anbrennen, sondern zeigt sogar dem mächtigen Ortofon, dass die Toms in "Yillah" des Hadouk Trios besser balanciert und realistischer klingen, wenn der Impuls einen Hauch zackiger, knackiger und der Oberbass etwas weniger prominent transportiert werden [...] Der eigentliche Zauber dabei ist der „Kick in den Allerwertesten“, zu dem das Speaker 425 meine ATC animiert – auch schon bei recht niedrigen Pegeln. Das spricht für einen wahrlich ungehinderten Energiefluss [...] Und es lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit wiederum auf seine grandiose Impulswiedergabe, die knackiger und nuancierter rüberkommt als selbst mit deutlich teureren Kabeln."

"Das Audioquest Rocket 22 muss sich beiden Kabeln knapp geschlagen geben, da es – auf hohem Niveau – etwas glanzloser und minimal weniger offen wirkt [...] Die Kirschen auf dem Kuchen sind die holografische Genauigkeit auf der ziemlich breiten Klangbühne, die glasklare Transparenz des ehrlichen Hochtons – ohne Härten – und der Umstand, dass In-akustik Explosivität und Spielfreude in dieser Preisklasse realisieren und dann tonal ausbalanciert domestizieren konnte."

"Wir brauchen sie, sind aber auch ein wenig unsicher, ob die Kabel, die wir uns leisten können, gut genug sind. Keine Sorge, es gibt Firmen, die uns diese Fragen ernsthaft und sinnvoll beantworten können und dazu gehört in-akustik aus dem badischen Markgräflerland."

"Eines ist sicher: wenige Firmen in unserer Branche machen ihre Arbeit und damit das durchaus kontroverse Thema Kabel so transparent wie in-akustik.[...] Man wird sich schwer tun, für dieses Geld ein auch nur vergleichbares Kabel zu finden [...] Diese Kabel passen hervorragend zu meinen Komponenten und spielen mit ihrem natürlich-neutralen und doch straffen, aber natürlichen Klangcharakter deutlich über ihre Preisklasse hinaus."

The S25 Speaker 425 is the most powerful model in the series, designed for audiophile setups with high power reserves and long cable runs. The large conductor cross-section and low-inductance multicore design ensure exceptionally low-loss transmission – even under high load or long cable lengths. The sound benefits from a particularly controlled, deep-reaching bass with precise punch, clearly defined mids, and an open, detailed high-frequency reproduction. The spatial presentation is stable and wide. Thanks to high-quality materials such as fine-stranded OFC copper, solid crimp contacts, and gold-plated connectors, the signal remains unaltered along the entire length. Its discreet, functionally elegant design and surprisingly high flexibility despite the large cross-section allow for neat, unobtrusive installation – even in complex rack setups or close to walls.

Sound doesn't start at the speaker

Speaker cables are far more than just wires between the amplifier and the speaker – they help determine how much of the music actually reaches you. Electrically, every cable acts like a filter made up of resistance, inductance, and capacitance. These characteristics influence whether details are preserved or whether highs lose brilliance and lows lose precision. Especially with speaker cables, conductor cross-section, copper quality, and construction are crucial for low-loss, dynamic signal transmission. The S25 series relies on high-purity OFC copper, well-designed multicore constructions, and flexible, durable materials. This keeps the music signal clear, true to impulse, and authentic – so you hear what's really on the recording. A good cable doesn’t color the sound, it transmits it: It is the solid bridge between your components and musical expression.

Multicore technology: More control, more sound

A key technical feature of the S25 speaker cables is their multicore design. Unlike traditional conductors, several fine-stranded individual wires run in parallel – this reduces inductance, improves high-frequency performance, and preserves signal integrity even during fast transients. The symmetrical distribution of the conductors also minimizes interference, as magnetic fields partially cancel each other out. This is especially evident in the Speaker 415 and 425 models, delivering tight, well-defined bass, precise imaging, and brilliant high-frequency detail. The result: high impulse fidelity, greater control, and a spatial soundstage that remains stable – even during complex passages.

  • "A good cable is like an interpreter between the artist and the listener: The more neutral and precise it works, the closer you are to the original. That’s exactly what we aimed for with the S25 series."

    Product developer Holger Wachsmann

OFC copper: Pure material for pure music

For the S25 series, we use only high-purity, oxygen-free copper (OFC) with a purity level of at least 99.95%. This material offers excellent electrical conductivity and reduces transmission losses – even over long cable runs or with high current flow. OFC copper is also highly resistant to corrosion, ensuring long-term sound stability. Combined with high-quality insulation materials and gold-plated connectors, the signal remains unaltered – from the amplifier output to the speaker terminals. S25 cables deliver music with high transparency and authentic dynamics – honest, direct, and without artificial coloration.

Crimp technology & gold-plated contacts

Connector joints are critical points in any signal path – they determine whether sound quality remains consistent. The S25 series uses professional crimp technology: fine-stranded copper conductors are gas-tight pressed under high pressure, effectively preventing corrosion and ensuring lasting contact stability. Gold-plated plugs provide consistently low contact resistance and are resistant to oxidation – even with frequent plugging and unplugging. This combination guarantees a reliable, sonically clean connection that neither swallows details nor slows down dynamics. For lasting sound fidelity – completely maintenance-free.
