As with all our cable series developments, the speaker cable is the cable we develop first. The Silver Diamond cables were something of a surprise to those that heard them and we were even surprised at exactly what they could do. So deciding to try to better them was no small undertaking. While reviewers were incredibly impressed with the Silver Diamonds we wondered if there was anything else we could bring to the performance to improve on them. What we ended up doing is starting from the ground up again, looking at each step in more minute detail and tweaking each and every iteration to optimise performance and optimise we did.

The Statement speaker cable not only surpassed the Silver Diamond but did so spectacularly, once again blowing our expectations clean out of the water. As you can clearly see from the reviews below where reviewers had previously experienced the Silver Diamonds then came face to face with the Statements.

What you have with the new Statements is a reviewer’s nightmare, how to describe them without repeating words that will be mistaken for something that you may have heard before.

“Well they certainly transcend any typical labelling” -Matej Isak, Mono and Stereo

Foreword by Geoff Merrigan

Managing Director

Tellurium Q^® is often asked what do we do that makes our cables perform so well? The simple and unsatisfying answer is that we do a lot of little things together that mount up to be very important in terms of the final performance. People assume that to get the best performance the “fastest” conductor – pure silver of something even better has to be used. Which is also one of the reasons for the pointless chasing of nines as I call it i.e. copper to 99.9999999% purity as if that is the single most important factor for a cable!

Surprisingly, to get a more “natural” sound, it is not just about merely conduction. This is the reason, any conductor from any cable manufacturer on this planet will act as an electronic filter and by that I mean that the various frequencies relative to one another get shifted with each material they pass through and are also affected by insulators, geometries, shielding etc.. The interesting thing is that materials affect ranges of frequencies in dissimilar amounts. It really is a finely tuned balancing act.

This is the model that we use, a way of thinking about cable development. In a Bell labs report from way back in 1930 they found that transient phase distortion affected the “naturalness” of voices. Of course there are many things that contribute to the fact that Statement cables are winning so many awards and firsts. But this “naturalness” is one of the prime factors that we listen for in the final production ready cable.

This testing process is more iterative than people would imagine. Even down to the solder that we use. Not standard by any means for the audio industry and we have tried numerous mixes and diverse percentages of silver in the solder but at the end of our testing and development we find we have a solder with no silver whatsoever (no lead either).

The connectors may look relatively ordinary but have multiple layers of plating and not always the material you would expect. There is even more detail and precision within the plating process itself, because we specify the thickness of the plating and what has to be in the plating bath and what should not be.

These are just a couple of tiny details that make up just one small part of one cable. The detail, precision and care is the same for the rest of the products. And each little step needs a controlled listening and testing against other options which is immensely time consuming but hopefully the results speak for themselves.

From what we have learnt, especially in the last few years, we have been able to bring you the Statement cables. They are the Tellurium Q® Statement of the performance that we think is currently possible.

We hope that you enjoy your system more with your Statement cables

“I mentioned cymbal taps. Here, such taps are not just sharp sounds but they have a body and a presence. There’s a beginning, a middle and an end to such sounds which is enhanced with a super midrange clarity. When the same cymbal is hit slightly harder, you can then hear a slight increase in the reverb emanating from the same. That’s all well and good during a drum solo, for example, but when when all of this is occurring right at the back of the soundstage, behind the duet vocals, the bass and most of the orchestra and that detail is easily tracked by the ear, you know you’re listening to something a bit special. “ -Paul Rigby,The Audiophile Man

“..a bit like upgrading an amplifier or speaker…..As for the classical bursting out, you must not try it! The whole sound field is very wide, very deep, deep and deep. The entire band is positioned very deep in front and back, and the positioning is very clear. …. female voice?…. can only be described as very moved and very moved “

“The Statements stand alone….The Statements rewrite the book for cables and, at this very moment, as I write this review, completely stand alone in the market. In sonic terms, the Statement cables are breathtaking”

-Paul Rigby, The Audiophile Man

“One of those OMG moments !…. Every now and again we try a new bit of kit to see if we can improve on our already capable top end system. Little by little we push the bar higher, but every now and then something very significant comes along. KOG audio told us about a new Tellurium Q cable that goes from the DIN output socket on a record deck to a couple of RCA (Phono) plugs. Part of their Statement range, at an eye watering £3600, we thought we’d try one to see if it justified its price tag. Plugging it into our smart new Technics SL1000R direct drive record deck (not to be confused by previous models of the SP10 / SL1000 – this is a whole new ball game), via a Lehmann Audio Decade pre-amp, into the 500 series Naim system with the gorgeous Focal Scala Utopia speakers. It took about 5 seconds to realise it had transformed the whole system into something so special, I haven’t heard anything as good, anywhere, at any time, for any price !”

“Tellurium Q Statement cables managed to forge extreme transparency with the unprecedented organic flow…. With any high-end audio cable, one can be too quickly trickled into the phenomena of an initial emotional impression impact. This is still sadly associated with too many high-end audio cables on the market. In reality, this tricky-exuberant effect starts to echo off almost as instantly as it was introduced in the first place. Tellurium Q Statements differs by far in this regard. There is no after effect, no aural morphing, no big waving of emotional impressions. Just a steadily verisimilitude! Tellurium Q Statements deliver the authority, sonic VR alike holographic nature, captivating relief soundstage structure, pinpointed three-dimensionality and finely micro/macro dynamics. All that in the absence of the sonic smear, subtle distortion and with the high definition amount of acoustical focus points!? Yes Tellurium Q Statements truly deliver an extreme resolution without introducing the clinical and analytical momentum too often associated even with the most exotic top tiers… Their stand out, extraordinary performance are more than worthy of the 2019 Editor Choice Award!”

“Cables that make a difference … and how!” “We are in front of a range of absolutely thrilling cables that, although not within reach of everybody, are far from the exorbitant prices that you can find in the High End audio universe, and show a sweeping sonic personality that puts them in place to revitalize absolute reference systems.” “… the Statement Loudspeaker cable, dazzled us by the almost surgical presentation of the sound scene, with simply amazing depth.” “Even more surprising are the line interconnect cables, that with particularly demanding recordings, impress by the degree of cleanliness” of voices and instruments.” -Tu Alta Fidelidad

“These set a new standard that out performs all other cables we’ve heard”

– Jon Myles, HiFi World

Statement Power

“Finally I plugged in the mains cable to the Creek amplifier. I wasn’t expecting a huge difference but the change was rather stark. “Way Down In The Hole” became larger and more substantial in its presentation. “Bizarre Love Triangle” was more vibrant. I could hear little notes that had previously escaped me and was delighted at just how much more the music seemed to flow effortlessly through the system. These set a new standard that out performs all other cables we’ve heard”

– Jon Myles, HiFi World

“I also love the dynamics that Statement delivers, even compared to similar beefy cables…..This is a telling piece and not an easy one to deliver in a domestic setting but with this cable it became realistic and totally compelling. At the other end of the scale, the quieter end, this cable is exceptionally good at pulling out the details that make a singer or instrument palpably real. I could rave on about this extraordinary cable but realise that at this price you won’t believe me: the only way to find out is to listen for yourself. But beware; once you hear what Tellurium Q is capable of you won’t forget the experience in a hurry. You have been warned!”

-Jason Kennedy, HiFi Plus

“…you will also appreciate its dynamics. It is a rich, internally high-quality sound that requires familiarity with live music and high quality systems. Silver Diamond is a great cable, but Statement is much better in every respect. Together, however, they give something more, which will appeal to any kind of music, They give fullness, energy and richness of emotions. “

“Tellurium Q Statements are no usual cable affair and if I’ve called the Silver Diamonds an Emotional Tour de Force what are then the Tellurium Q Statements!? Well, they certainly transcend any typical labeling and this time I’m elevating them on the throne, that they clearly deserve. Their stand out, extraordinary performance can only be recognized with the 2018 Editor Choice Award!”

-Matej Isak, Mono & Stereo

“It was at this point I started to consider the magnitude of the achievement by Tellurium Q, they have developed a cable range that is the best I have heard so far, by far, actually very far.”

-Terry Ellis, HiFi Reviewer

Statement Speaker Cable & RCA

“To sum up let me add that the Tellurium Q Statement cables are a class of their own, a worthy partner of top audio systems, especially those in which we want to saturate the sound without losing any of the other features of the highest quality sound. Their important advantage is universality; they fit almost any system in which they harmoniously combine analytics with musicality, the power of dynamics with the subtlety of subtle reverberations. I know that they cost a lot, but I also know that it is worth spending time on them. “
