Rooth is 16 drivers in a custom.
 
Anyway I couldn't get the discount, and the customer service wasn't very good, so I'm going for a different (cheaper) custom now, sending my impressions away on Friday! Can't wait.
 
They've already confirmed they can do my artwork this is going to be so cool.

no i think jude did say something about having more than 10 drivers in one ear, from sleek audio.
 
now your artwork interests me haha.
 
So the fostex is on hold now? i'm torn with another contender from schiit now aggghhh.... but the fostex still has the edge of being portable.

That was an April's Fool joke. :p

Also, I think with Rooth's, it is 8 drivers per ear... bringing a total of 16 drivers together.

lol, so cable does matter i guess, are you gonna get a special cable for dac?
ah right about the contender from schiit is the bifrost, the idea of it being upgradable is interesting.

Welllll... if you look at this website you'll see that silver actually does have a slightly higher electrical conductivity than copper, which might result in a slightly more accurate sound quality... I'm not an expert I'm just judging by these indexes http://www.tibtech.com/conductivity.php
 
Anyway I mostly just bought the cable because it's pretty, it's silver/white, so it will match the silver artwork on my new custom! but if it makes it sound a bit different that is nice too, the cable seller said better bass response, well we'll see.
