  I love to get a cable for the AKT8iE. I am stuck between the Brimar or the AKs own crystal cable. Only issue I have with AK cable is that it is 2.5 TRRS and I dont always want to use a balance out as not all my gears are balanced out.

Do you think Brimar can make a cable that could be modular?

Yes Brimar Audio Labs can make pretty much any cable on request. He's seems to source very good parts also but if you have other preferences for specific vendor components I'm sure he would be able to accommodate.

Apologies for those who asked about when I will post the 'Monarch Supreme Reference 8 braid Layla cable' review and upgrade differences versus the 4 braid.
 
I am still waiting on my order to get processed I will keep you updated when I receive it.
 
Also when ordering I asked for the bass calibration dial but Creevy convinced me against it - I thought I would pass on the info.
 
Brimar Quote:

Frankly speaking, we sold less than five with bass dial and I would suggest not to include even though this kit is available as well.
The bass dial simply add a loading resistor to the cable and this change the conductor resistance & capacitance which we can find hardly any advantage sonically or technically using CRO measurement. 
 

 
Will keep you updated on the review.

I'm sure he can help if you contact him, did you get a reply?
Not sure if the other guys got their cables also as he's seems awol again?

Anyone here tried any Brimar cable with a custom Layla and can advise which is the most suitable pairing for it? Thanks!

This guy is off the reservation and radar. I asked for a custom micro b to micro b on January 1 (3 months ago) and never got any follow up replies...nothing. Proceed with caution.

Shame he's not responding to anyone (including me), he does make great products but as you say if there are no communications it doesn't bode well.

Man look at the pic in the gallery box. That looks awesome. Too bad he fell off. Maybe he had a kid and he will come back? Life happens. Hope he is O.K..

He posted on his facebook page on the 2nd April - so still seems active.
 
Not sure what's happening ....
 
I emailed him one last time.

Saying business had been busy replied back to him and never heard back again and that was about 12 days ago!
its pretty sad as i am sure he could do a ton of business here in the states! But so far has proven unreliable twice now!

  They screwed me pretty bad
 
I had no options for the Mojo and they said they would make one.
 
I would buy it.
 
 
Then they say...just keep it
 
What?
 
 
You want a gold one too?
 
 
What?
 
 
We can send you 3
 
 
tha fuu
 
 
I shoulda seen the troll but I was asking and wanting to buy one for mojo when options were very limited. They just shut down and ignored me and my money.
 
At that time it was beyond infuriating. I didn't want...I NEEDED that cable and got screwed by wasting time and waiting for something that was never even made
 
FYI
