Here at Toxic Cables we pride ourselves on quality and innovation. The Silver Widow was the first litz silver headphone cable available anywhere and others have followed to try and create a cables that have the improvements the Silver Widow Offers. The original will always be the best.

Toxic Cables has been leading the way in new design and innovation in headphone cables since it was founded in 2011. The very first cable we released was the baby brother to this cable, the Silver Poison which was an OCC Cryo Silver/Gold stranded wire, the very first in the industry.

Within months of founding Toxic Cables, we had a huge line up of cables available to our customers, with over 8 cables to choose from at the time, our customers had every type of cable they could want under one roof, compared to our competitors 2/3 offering.

Soon we followed on with more firsts to the industry, including our true hybrid Virus and our Silver Litz “Silver Widow” cables.

We have since made improvements and changes to the Silver Widow to make it the ultimate in stranded silver cables and now offer the Silver Widow 24 and it’s bigger brother the Silver Widow 22, cables that we are sure will take your listening experience to to the next level.

We won’t tell you how good our cables are or how good they sound as we have always believed that we should let our cables speak for themselves and if you click on the link above and read the reviews from our customers, i am sure you will find that they do exactly that.

No fancy words, no hard selling, just honest reviews from first hand users.

    Here a very quick review of the “Silver Widow 24”, from the perspective of a non-expert
    audiophile. I might start by commenting that it took me more than a year of hesitation to
    bit the bullet and order a new cable. I was scared to waste my limited budget and tricked
    into buying snake oil which wouldn’t improve my listening experience.

    Despite the consensus that copper cables would fit better with the Audeze LCD series,
    I went for the silver widow from toxic-cable (I can’t praise enough Frank’s remarkable help
    for buying the cable).

    I am now experimenting the cable with my Audeze LCD-XC. The reason why I wanted to go
    down the silver route is that (despite being a closed-back headphone)
    the XC has a very decent soundstage, but felt it was sometimes under-performing
    and could use some more refined treble, instrument separation,
    and soundstage. All of them improved with the silver widow ! The bass surprisingly became also tighter,
    which I didn’t expect, and the XC just more fun and more agile. The HD800 will still have the edge of
    course for soundstage, but actually I quite like the combination of the more groovy sound of the XC and
    now the added air, maybe closer now to a Audeze/HD hybrid sound.

    Now I am aware of the old war regarding cables in HiFi, and I won’t comment too much on that.
    I am myself an engineer (physics), and I couldn’t tell you how the electro-magnetic coherence
    and phasing is affected by the cable design, but experiments always have the last word on the theory,
    and A/B testing clearly showed a significant improvement over the standard cable.

    Ok, I can leave this to someone who can add more detail and more eloquent then myself.
    Short version, are these cables worth buying, YES.
    So you just spent a good bit of money on a player/dac/amp, and because you are here, you must also have spent a good bit of money on some new headphones, but like when build a high end PC, the setup is as only as good as its weakest link.
    Don’t get me wrong, many stock cables sound great, but most companies want max profit, no need to really push the boat out on high end cables, so even though it all sounds good, there is room for more improvement, one area is cables such as these.
    A few years ago I begrudgingly paid for a so called better cable for some IEM headphones, I did wonder if I would just think/tell myself they were better to justify the cost, but when I noticed better separation and detail, I was converted.
    Not long ago I bought some LCD-2f headphones, everything sounding great (small-ish ST but that’s known for these) then I saw many cables out there and people filling forums, what different cables could add.
    I saw Toxic Cables/Frank, get lots of praise, may take a bit of time, but that’s due to him doing it all, also swamped with orders, and like the saying, good things come to those who wait.
    I asked Frank for a cable recommendation (best for setup) to which he said the Silver Widow, I emailed the poor man so many questions, he replied to all when he could (think he works 23hrs a day lol) very helpful.
    Once the cable arrived, I did wonder again, will the fact there is a cost in this, will make me imagine added quality, the whole cable burn in thing, will it only show after many hours of use.
    Well the cable came, excellent build quality, shocked is not the word when it came to sound, as soon as I swapped cables there was a clear improvement, detail, separation, and even soundstage, all went up a notch, had the biggest smile on my face.
    Its very much like the first time you move from good headphones to high end, at times its better, maybe not night and day difference to start with, but you use the high end ones and then go back to others, that’s when its like “oh god no, cannot use these anymore”
    Cannot rate my purchase enough, the build, the personal service and advise, and of course the sound, really is a case of doing the new headphones a service by treating them to a Toxic cable.
