VOVOX purum Studios
Es kann schon passieren, dass Studiobetreiber, die den Qualitätsgewinn mit einem VOVOX Kabel gehört haben, anschliessend kein anderes Kabel mehr wollen. Komplett mit VOVOX verkabelte Studios zeichnen wir mit dem VOVOX purum Label aus.
Analog 905, Changsha (CN)
"After a long period of comparison, VOVOX sonorus was finally selected as the cable for pre-recording coloring, and VOVOX excelsus as the cable for the master bus and speakers. The rich sound details and dynamic feedback of VOVOX cables are fascinating. Many attempts have been made to find out if there are any cables that can match them, and finally it was found that the characteristics of VOVOX are the best. Using VOVOX excelsus as the master bus cable will give the music a very high-quality flat frequency response curve and a very modern and advanced listening experience, which has been highly praised by clients. I like VOVOX cables very much."

Stüdyo 18, Istanbul (TR)
"As a professional producer/sound engineer, I have been the witness of the importance of the signal and power cables in sound. I have been always careful about the quality of the cables on the projects I have recorded/produced. Although I was using good quality cables in my studio, after changing all of them with Vovox, I have observed the difference as black & white! It is hard to explain what I hear but I can say that there is a curtain on the sound before and it has disappeared and it is much more clean, detailed and natural now. All of the cables in my studio and my hifi system at home are now only Vovox.
I also would like to say that to change all of the cables in a listening/recording chain makes the real difference comparing to the change of only one or two cables in that system. So, just go for the Vovox and feel the music – you will not regret at all."
Astia-studio, Lappeenranta (FI)
"When it comes to sound I no longer only record on magnetic tape at Astia-studio A, but do it using VOVOX cables. In audio the quality is as good as the weakest link in signal chain. With VOVOX cables I can be sure that no information is lost and everything translates to the finest detail."
Anssi Kippo/Astia-studio (Lappeenranta, Finland)
H12 Audio, Thessaloniki (GR)
"I love VOVOX cables, their appearance, their sonic characteristics, the build quality. But the main reason I am exclusively using them is because I don’t really want to think about cables, and these do their job really well and they never get in the way."
Gut Audio, Basel (CH)
"I attended many cable comparison sessions where the results were often rather disillusioning, but the new VOVOX excelsus cable has captivated me. I rewired my entire outboard with it! Built like an armour (and just as stiff) it extracts the finest details and nuance, revealing the impressive punch and three-dimensionality that these devices are famous for."
Horus Studios, Singapore
"Whenever we receive a batch of VOVOX cables, it is like having a new piece of gear installed in our mastering signal chain. With the XL series, it gives a tighter extended low-end, wider stereo image, more depth and the frequency is very open and natural! The new sound is way beyond our expectation. We totally enjoy it with our ATC Speaker, Maselec Console, Merging Technology & Burl Audio Converters!"
Soundation Studio, Helmbrechts (D)
"For me, VOVOX always stood for best quality and absolute signal fidelity. With the new mastering chain a personal dream had come true. As much as with the audio gear, I wanted to select the best available quality on the market also for the cables. In a carefully prepared blind test I always had the impression that the VOVOX sound conductors presented the stereo image with a little more transparence and definition. For me, cables are an equally important part of the audio chain as each single component.
Thanks for this piece of Swiss quality."
Tom Maeder, Basel (CH)
"VOVOX cables are about trusting what you hear! If it does not sound perfect, then it certainly is NOT because of the cables!
With VOVOX cables there are no weak links in my signal chain. So I can forget about the cables and concentrate on the music!"
Spacetrain (CH)
"Spacetrain now crosses galaxies with VOVOX, discovering a whole new sound dimension. Whether for charts, movies, commercials or web, the refined sound conductors will bring the touching compositions of Spacetrain even closer to the audience."
Lars Kischkel Studio, Köln (D)
Audiomanufaktur, Rebstein (CH)
"The pristine sound characteristics, that is achieved with VOVOX sound conductors, perfectly reproduces the primordial emotion of the artist - and that’s what we want to accomplish in the mastering process after all. Thank you VOVOX"
Globe Audio, Bordeaux (F)
"After many blind tests between several brands we realized that, for critical applications like mastering, VOVOX are the best high end cables...
With VOVOX cables, sound gets more dynamic, open and detailed. The sound stage and definition are just amazing!
VOVOX perfectly completes our new NO compromise audio setup we built around the Maselec Mastering Console"
Intonation Premium Audio Mastering, Dublin (IE)
"It was a revelation to hear sound through VOVOX cabling. Digitalisation and compression were facilitating the transmission of music, but the side effect was the downgrading of the audio quality. And here was the extraordinary VOVOX, giving audio back its soul and maintaining the analogue warmth and clarity. Any doubts we had about the difference this cabling could make were dispelled when we heard them demonstrated by Jurg Vogt. The Intonation studio was conceived around them and would not exist without them - they are the key element which enable us to achieve as good a sound quality as you can get. We initially installed VOVOX link cables throughout the studio and did not think they could be surpassed. But when VOVOX sonorus became available, we did not hesitate to change the entire studio to VOVOX sonorus for the subtle difference they offer."
einzigunartig sounds, Hamburg (D)
"We put up walls, remodel our rooms and spend a lot of money on first-class equipment to guarantee our customers a precise, balanced and equally high-quality sound quality. Using the wrong cables limits the potential of quality equipment. With VOVOX, on the other hand, we have a partner at our side who can reliably contribute to fully unleashing the potential of our high-quality equipment and getting the best out of our technology.”
Baris Büyük Online Mix & Mastering
"My first experience in VOVOX cables was a comparison between a standart pro audio cable and Vovox ones in a nice listening room with Jürg Vogt at Music Messe, Frankfurt. I had a session with my brother who is also an engineer/producer and it was kind of a “blind test” –just a button for switching the speakers which has Vovox Cables and then the other. The difference was really huge and we were amazed with the detailed sound of the 2-track music which basically forced me to change all of the cables in my mix & mastering room.
After the change... Oh, God... The difference was like the day & night which basically puts a very big smile into your face and that smile continuous while working..."
Studio Dedé AIR, Tokyo (J)
"We have chosen VOVOX for wiring of our newly built studio. We had been researching and trying a variety of cables from those regarded as standard to expensive "high- end” cables to find most appropriate one for production studios. These days cable without coloration is demanded among serious audio professionals, but I had felt some kind of coloration from every cables I had tested. Therefore we see tons of cables on the market. I accepted those coloration if the character is attractive before. However, VOVOX is obviously different from someone else. No coloration, extraordinary natural, VOVOX is no doubt to be standard for professional studio."
Online Mixing, Leipzig (DE)
"There's always a lot of debate about cables. Colleagues who didn't hear the Vovox Cable themselves always like to accuse you of esotericism and marketing. I can only recommend everyone to test the cables themselves in a familiar listening environment. The differences are clearly perceptible. A higher impulse fidelity or transient reproduction is achieved. This improves the resolution and the panorama is displayed in more detail. The basses keep their pressure and the highs are super clear and transparent. It feels like pulling away a very thin curtain in front of the speakers and finally hearing what's really happening. I also like the fact that you can hear distortions and artifacts on recordings more clearly due to the improved resolution. This is no "listening pleasure" - but very desirable in terms of the most honest possible reproduction for high-class mastering”.
Beatraum Studio, Gunzenhausen (DE)
"In times where quality decides over success there is only on choice for us for cables: VOVOX As an audioengineer, instructor at Deutsche Pop Nuremberg and successfull producer i confirm the statement that you can hear the difference ! When we compared recordings with VOVOX and other cables we have been impressed right away. We never had this resolution, presence and liveliness in our recordings. If you are searching for the missing last percent of perfection in your recording you'll finally find it with VOVOX!“
Pierre Horrolt
Anthony Yeung Mastering Studio, Hong Kong
"It makes the sound more dynamic, very good low-mid responses and very clear, transparent. I love VOVOX!"
TrueBusyness Mastering, Berlin (DE)
"If you ask me if I hear a difference to conventional cables, my answer is: "Yes, definitely!". [...] Suddenly, a more precise stereo image and a high-resolution depth graduation emerge. This is especially the case with the sonorus cables in that they finally give the basses the necessary space. They do what they should: They provide pressure and punch without making the upper frequency ranges sound muddy. Before listening to the new sonorus cables for the first time, I sent music through the cables for five hours and then compared the recordings with the old cables in the same connection chain. A difference was directly perceivable, as well as the waveforms on the computer were clear.
The cables allow me to work faster now. The routine is supported by the precise behavior of the cables. This also allows me to reach my goal much faster and to have more time for further projects”.
Raw Artistic, Köln (DE)
"Ooh! But that feels good..." I said when Guido Apke (Apke Tontechnik) stood in my studio years ago and said "Phil! You have to hear that!" What came was not predictable, but inevitable! Now I'm completely VOVOX-ed, put a S8 microphone path from the recording room directly into the preamps and completely patched my analog COTK Modular with sonorus. [...] My sound, my sound world, my productions and mixes were suddenly so beautiful, so open and so deep. Microphones sound, instruments and synths gain, I hear the current flowing in the modular not only with audio but also with control voltage.
Thank you! Thank you VOVOX!
Soundable Studio, Laubach (DE)
"The saying "Believe only what you have seen" clearly applies to hearing as well. I have come to this conclusion since using VOVOX sound conductors in my studio. [...] With the VOVOX cables the sounds have much more presence and the overall sound is more finely resolved. I would not have thought that such an enormous sound improvement would be possible by using these cables alone. Our studio is consistently equipped with VOVOX cables - and that's how it will stay. Here again the motto proves true: "Quality will be remembered when the price has long been forgotten". Thank you VOXOX!
mietmaul.ch, Ottikon (CH)
"Good sound is based on a good feeling. I feel comfortable with the sound conductors from Lucerne. Whether I hear a difference to conventional cables, I cannot really say any more, because the last A/B comparison lies several years back. With VOVOX it's like good Swiss cheese: Since I bought my Wildbach Cheese from our village dairy, I simply don't like airtight packed stinky stuff from the big distributor anymore. I like VOVOX. Whether technically proven or dismissed as an audio esoteric, I don't care. As far as I know, golden records on the walls are still the best acoustic measure you can do in a control room. Before you can enjoy it, you need a good feeling. With VOVOX I treat myself to both”.
Analog Mastering Studio, Frankfurt (D)
"Hearing is believing! VOVOX überraschen mich immer wieder mit ihren Produkten, kompromisslos konstruierte Klangleiter für den audiophilen Studiobedarf. [...] Insgesamt bekommt man den Eindruck, VOVOX hat den Link zwischen den Geräten revolutioniert, den 'Störfaktor' Kabel soweit in den Eigenschaften verbessert, das sämtliche Audioprozessoren in neuem Glanz erstrahlen!“
ArthanorProductions, Genf (CH)
"After having renewed the studio acoustics of ARTHANOR Productions, I started looking for the best cables. I ordered a few VOVOX cables and was thrilled that they were not only reliable, but also convincing in the most delicate audiophile applications with presence and transparency. VOVOX sound conductors immediately became my first choice, and I equipped all of the studio's analog paths accordingly. In January 2008 Petula Clark, an international star, opened the new studio with the recording of two songs. The result was extraordinary. With ARTHANOR Productions we want to serve the artists, the music and the sound quality equally. VOVOX sound conductors are a clear advantage in achieving this goal".
Tischmeyer Mastering, Kükels (D)
„For demanding Mastering true signal path is a basic requirement to be able to make decisions. Therefore the monitoring system has a special importance. Our first experience with Vovox concerned instrument and microphone cables, which have brought amazingly improvements compared to other really high quality cables from reputable producers. Especially the gain in transparency and resolution are amazing. So it was just a question of time to switch all signal paths to VOVOX. Our next studio to be built in California will be equipped only with VOVOX sound conductors.“
Stockfisch Records
"We are accustomed to researching subtle changes in sound differences and implementing the results to constantly improve our equipment. The quality of VOVOX audio cables is apparent immediately and not just experienced in bordering areas of sound perception. Tonal structures have a distinctly higher resolution. The impulse behaviour is clearly faster without any change to the linearity of the frequency spectrum. The consequence of our listening tests was unfortunately costly but unavoidably decisive: Now in all three studios (Recording-Mastering-Disc Cutting) every metre of audio cable is VOVOX !"

"VOVOX rules! Nachdem wir den ersten Test in unserem neuen Mix- und Masteringstudio durchgeführt hatten, waren wir von der Plastizität des Sounds einfach begeistert. Da wir nicht nur „in the Box“, sondern auch viel analog arbeiten, war es wichtig alle Signalwege des Studios hochwertig zu bestücken, um etwaige Klangverluste zu minimieren bzw. Störgeräusche bestmöglich vorzubeugen. Unsere Wahl für VOVOX stand schon nach kurzer Zeit fest, Klang und Abschirmverhalten hatten uns vollends überzeugt."

"Wir sind das erste Hiphop Recording-Studio in Deutschland mit kompletter VOVOX-Audioverkabelung. Es wird viel über Kabel debattiert, aber der Unterschied ist wirklich da. Wir haben während der Ausmessung des Regieraumes einmal versehentlich einen Monitor mit VOVOX-Kabeln und den anderen mit Standardkabeln angeschlossen und haben wirklich gestaunt. Auch bei Mikrotests mit verschiedenen Kabeln war ein deutlicher Unterschied auszumachen. Ich denke, man hört einfach mehr Details und Räumlichkeit."

„Once heard, there’s no other conclusion to be made: VOVOX for the complete signal path, please! Seriously: VOVOX sound conductors aren’t cheap. Nevertheless, the added benefits as well as the resulting dramatic sound quality improvement they offer make them very cost effective.”
Patrick Putzolu, Matthias Oebel, Phenomental Productions
Sculpture Music, Chur (CH)
“After completely rewiring my studio and going through the experience of some test recordings, I’m simply under the impression that I’m working in a totally new studio! I can use my equipment and tools in new ways. It’s really amazing! Some examples: The mix-down process has been simplified, and my sense of hearing remains fresh for longer stretches of time. And finally, when comparing the result with reference recordings, one can still recognize the original, personal sound, but now with the magic touch I was always looking for. There is no esoteric trick, the sound is simply there! Being able to mix the music creatively with the result being of so-called international sound quality standard is a blessing. There is no fiddling about till one’s ears are overloaded, just let it happen and be happy with the result – wonderful! Besides the great sound presence, I’m especially pleased with the lower, bass end. The painful droning, and annoying, unwanted resonating frequencies are finally gone. The only disadvantage: I can’t stand my older recordings anymore, after hearing things that were neglected and are now, in contrast, taken care of. The thing I was looking for is now here. These cables make my work considerably easier!”

"To be totally honest, having the opportunity to wire up a whole new control room with VOVOX cables is truly a pleasure for the ears! My goal of achieving a natural 3-dimensional sound image by making authentic music recordings in acoustic rooms is perfectly supported by these unique ‘electric iron cables’. Anyone not familiar with them should directly attend to changing that. An absolute must for every musical sound engineer.”
Skyline Tonfabrik, Düsseldorf (D)
"It was clear from the start that we’d only settle for the best ingredients for our new mastering studio. Despite, or actually because of, the fact that cables and other ‘details’ like power supply are often either treated as HiFi-madness or completely neglected, we decided to conduct a blind-fold test to get to the bottom of the matter. We tested 5 different cables of only one meter’s length. That’s not much, but it was enough to provide significant results. We played 3 different songs from our ½” tape recorder through each cable to the cutting system. We always used the same converters, levels and signal paths for the listening session, of course. The result was astonishing. The blind-fold test was conducted by 5 different sound engineers and musicians. Although the differences were small and psychoacoustic effects can’t be excluded, they were significant. And this with only a one meter cable-length on line level – imagine the difference a 30 m microphone cable would produce! There was no winner eclipsing the others in all disciplines (stereo image, bass definition, presence, sound intensity) with all pieces of music, but clear tendencies were detected. For us, VOVOX emerged to be the over-all winner. It offered an open, yet not sharp sound, and a warm, but not dim, low end. In addition, the stereo image was more 3-dimensional when compared to other cables’ images. We’re very satisfied with the result and don’t regret the investment, since our ‘darling’ is wired only once and we don’t settle for second-best."
Patrik Schwitter
"The difference between conventional Pro-Audio cables and VOVOX sound conductors isn't just "splitting hairs" or subtle audio esoterics, in my opinion. It's my experience that with VOVOX, the transients and sound textures become crystal- clear and highly musical. Incredible density, openness and richness of detail allow the sound to become a stunning experience. I'd say it's almost rude to have waited with unveiling this great sounding cable till now…"
FWL Studios, Leipzig (D)
“Given the unique opportunity to build a compromise-free high end studio from scratch, we evaluated all equipment components during numerous listening sessions. All well-established cables available on the market were included. We were extremely amazed that for the first time, all those involved unanimously agreed. It is surely not a matter of taste: There are several good cables available, but only one sound conductor. The consequence of using VOVOX was an obvious improvement of sound quality: The richness in detail, directness of sound and mainly the natural character of the stereo-image were unequaled. Using VOVOX, it seemed as though the music was not coming out of the loud speakers any more: It simply in the room. Incredible!„
