Hi,
I just received a 8 foot Double Helix Molecule OCC (SE) cable for my AKG K 702s. I believe this was the first cable of Molecule OCC SE that Peter had made for AKGs. My rig is using an iMac running Decibel as a source through a Grace Design m903 as a DAC and Headphone Amp. I was able to audition them A/B vs. the stock cable last night for about an hour to gain some initial impressions. My initial impression is quite positive and I notice three areas of improvement:
1) The bass performance has more impact and sounds less attenuated in the music mix and deep room resonances can be heard more distinctly (less subtle)
2) The sound stage has more precise placement and spatial resolution within the perceived image (more subtle)
3) the perceived level of detail within high frequency instruments like drum brushes and cymbals seem a touch more detailed (more subtle)
Mechanically, the cable workmanship is flawless and while larger than the stock cable, the wear ergonomics are quite comfortable. Communication with Peter throughout the order placement and fulfillment process was excellent. I will definitely order an aftermarket cable from Peter again if the situation arises.
:-)
