I was just wondering since I heard the LCD-3s a few days ago, I really liked the bass quantity and balance. Would something like a silver widow make the bass less pronounced?

The black widow will probably be fuller sounding one..especially the 22awg 8wire version i have..it sounds more complete then its 4wire sibling..BUT...for my rig...and i mean my rig..the treble is just perfect with the he500...a brighter silver cable (sw) would be to much for me..i think i found my end game cable for my rig at this moment... My 8wire 22awg was franks first 8wire cable in such a thick cable...so iwas his test subject..and he nailed it..this is the cable i would suggest everyone for a he500...the lcd 3 is a bit brighter then the 2...the 2 does best with silver...i think if u like full meaty, natural sound..go for the bw..if u want more analictic..brighter with extreme details thingie..go for the sw.

Thanks for the analysis. These effects are precisely what I think will send my rig into eargasm!  ;0)
I really dig on detail in aural rendering so the SW should just bring the LCD3s into nirvana for me at least...Not that they are not already mind you but I do love very pronounced detail with bass in its place. Will relay impressions when I get the Silver Widow.

I am a bit confused with all the different Toxic Cables mentioned. I want the best (don't we all?) Toxic Cable for my HE-500s. Are they ALL on your website, Frank?

Just curious, why do you have 2 DACs?

 

[Paul Graham]

I cant afford an SR71-B or a balanced CLAS currently due to saving for a house, So this is my way of having a fully balanced rig for less cost

Oh, the rig still looks awesome with all that Silver Widow cable. Maybe you can upgrade the LOD to Silver Widow from SP as well. : )

 

[Paul Graham]

To be honest Im pretty happy with the SP right now. Ive only had it a few weeks lol.
The Beyer hybrids are going to have a Copper cable which is a change for me, I want to add more depth & warmth to their sound.

The Black Widow? They look the best without sleeving IMO, but they still look great with sleeving.

He could lose the DB2 and use the DAC in the CLAS but he is squeezing out every last ounce of sound with the DB2 in there. I still use that same rig (with exception of iphone) and it's a no compromise Portable/Transportable rig.
