High end (IEM) cable thread: impressions, pics, comparisons and reviews.
Hi, I have just posted a review comparing two flagship cables from Mad Cable, a relatively new cable maker from Hong Kong. Dan has posted an excellent review on the Re-MSG (hybrid of 4x gold plated copper and 4x silver). I agree totally with Dan's review and thought it would be useful if I...- appleidappleid

SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A
Thanks I will try messaging him. I get over 20 hours of battery life if I play music through 4.4 balanced (high gain at around volume 50), but only 8 hours if I play through USB output through the WMC-NWH10 conversion cable to my DAC (Schiit Jotunheim). Does this sound normal? I see that I can...- appleidappleid

SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A
Hello, just wondering if anyone knows where I can find a BCR-NWH10 cradle for my WM1A in Europe? I have started a WTB post to see if anyone is selling one. I can also see that there are sellers on eBay from Japan who sell them but it will cost me an extra 30% due to customs charges and handling...- appleidappleid

Hello Frank, I can see that the Silver Poison V2 (which I believe is more flexible) is available as DIY wires. If I am to order a Silver Poison IEM cable, will it come in the V1 or V2 cable?- appleidappleid

Cayin N6 DAP: Dual PCM1792 / Dual Mono / 24-192 / DSD128 / SACD ISO
Andy, Thanks for your update. The N6 and i5 are both great players for their price point. Would you be able to confirm whether the new flagship would have a 2.5mm or 4.4mm balanced output? I am planning to order a couple of new cables and am just wondering whether I should get a 2.5mm or 4.4mm...- appleidappleid

Hello, I have just placed an order for the CL1. I understand that there are two cables that comes with it. I am using my desktop amplifier to drive it.

Yes I have gone for the Forza Claire HPC. I ordered the 1.5m one because the biggest problem with the stock cable is its weight and length. Very inconvenient because i sit right next to my amplifier.- appleidappleid

Forza AudioWorks Impressions Thread
Would it be right to say that the only difference between Noir and Claire is that Noir is wrapped in black braid, so there is so sonic difference between them? If this is the case, i would go for the Claire. I think it looks better.- appleidappleid

I am looking for a aftermarket cable for my HD800s. Should I consider the Noir HPC Mk2 or Claire HPC Mk2? I can only see that one is 8x1 braid and the other is 4x2 braid. What is the difference in sound between the two? I don't mind if it is sleeved at all. Thanks!- appleidappleid

Schiit Jotunheim Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
I also have a Jot with HD800S. I just feel that vocal can be a bit too harsh at times. I have ordered a tube dac to add to the system to see if the tube can warm up the vocal a bit (just a cheap Aune T1se). Otherwise I feel that the Jot is not too bad with HD800S given the price of Jot.- appleidappleid
