New Head-Fier
Pros: Excellent in construction, very soft and flexible. No microphonic. Very balanced sound with lots of detail and tight bass. Wide and deep soundstage getting outside your head. Vocal to die for.
Cons: You paid for what you got.
Hi there,

This is MusicLove123, I have been using PlusSound Exo X-8 Silver Plated Copper (Type 6 Litz) IEM cables for several months. Using one MMCX cable for Shure SE846, and another 2-pin cable for Massdrop X Noble Kaiser 10.

Both are excellent in construction, very soft and flexible. Absolutely no microphonic at all. Nice to hear the music; instead of the sound of the cable rubbing on my shirts. The X-8 can fully bring out the potential of both IEMs.
The bass were tremendously tight with plenty of visceral feel of the drum kits. Mid are smooth with clear vocal. You can hear every breath of the singer when doing close mic recording. The high is extended without feeling any rough edges or sibilance. Vocal to die for!

I recently bought a custom molding Ultimate Ears (UE) Pro18+ and the stock cable has a new IPX connector. This is something I called a miniature size of MMCX connector. The UE stock cable is very thin and keep tangling and coiling up all the time. Very difficult to handle when travelling. No one making a custom cable yet, till I received a nice email from Christian at PlusSound announced the new IPX cable. I immediately ordered one Exo (2-wire Silver Plated Copper) to try on my UE Pro18+ IEM.

Switching out the stock cable with PlusSound new IPX Exo custom IEM cable showed the true color of the UE Pro18+. The highs are crystal clear. Mids are warm with excellent texture of human voice. The base is extremely well control and tight. Transient response of bass drum is top notch. Wide and deep soundstage getting outside your head. Plenty of air. No stress. Total relaxation. Maybe burning in for 100+ hours will be even better. This is an Absolutely Fantastic cable!!
