With Oxygen-Free Copper conductors in Wireworld's unique DNA Helix cable design, Pulse Nano cable provides superior imaging and expressive dynamics, while the Composilex 2 insulation improves focus and clarity. An amazing, cost-effective upgrade for your portable devices.
Pros: Soundstage extension, sub bass impact, headroom, noticeable improvement over stock cables, inexpensive for said improvement,
Cons: If you don't like purple, it's 3 times a monoprice cable, 3 times the improvement...is a debatable statement
Introduction
So it's a cable. It's copper. It's coiled into a helix pattern apparently. It's $36 +shipping and it most definitely works.
I get it, I understand that this is a highly perceptual hobby (obsession) that we are all involved in.
If you don't believe that cables make a difference I urge you to do an AB, ABX, or however you want to test this cable and reply in the comments.
Let's have it out!
How I feel about Cable upgrades
To my ears - when I was using a 25 foot *other brand* cable as a headphone extension cord and then compared that experience to plugging my cans directly into the amp; that other brand was returned immediately. I heard and felt a significant decrease in sub-bass and soundstage.
Analog cables can make a difference - the jury is out on digital cables. Analog cables are made of metals, they have different properties. That's just physics. Having a cable with less resistance definitely improves certain sonic characteristics in my opinion.
Construction
Quality, flat, with nice chunky plugs that are easy to connect. It's purple. I like purple.
Sound
I wasn't expecting this cable to make a difference but the minute I plugged it in, I heard more soundstage and a bit more clarity. Things were separated and detailed. The bass was across-the-board impactful and boosted. This was the experience that converted me. Along with the story hidden above in the spoiler.
Equipment used - Tidal streaming HIFI CD quality (44khz 16bit) - Hifime Sabre 2018 USB DAC - Cayin C5 Amplifier -
Headphones - Beyer DT770 250 ohm, AKG K712, AKG K7xx, Sennheiser HD600, Grado 325e Mahogany tuned
Notes for specific cans.
Beyer DT770 250 ohm - Bass impact, speed, soundstage, clarity
Akg 712 - Bass extension, soundstage
AKG K7xx- Ditto
Sennhesier HD600- Clarity and treble
Grado 325e drivers in Mahagony cups - Impact, speed, energy added to an already energetic pair of cans.
Verdict
For me, it's a no brainer. So well worth the price of admission for my portable setup that I take to the office. This cable will not break your bank, your significant other's heart (I think that starts at around $400 a meter) and you will hear and feel the difference.
