Hi guys, Speaking of U12T, what cable would you recommend to go with it? I currently use the Penon's PAC480 and I wonder if higher tier cables such as DHC's Compliment-C or Eletech Socrates would take the U12t to the next level? FYI, I like my bass beefy, my vocals up front and my soundstage...

Watching the thread! 1) Favorite IEM: U12T 2) Favorite Eletech Product: Socrates 3) Maybe a 8 wires Socrates? :)

Hi, As the title suggest, I own a Opus #2 and I want to travel to TOTL territories.... without breaking my wallet :sweat_smile: First question: is it worth it? Will I get a substantial increase in sound quality, details, timbre, soundstage etc. ? Second question: if the answer to the...

Got the CEMA's Chime Palace series yesterday to pair with my U12T. First thing I noticed: bass has more autority, imaging is improved as is soundstage. It adds some sort of "sweetness" to the U12T's sound. It retains and improves all the details and characteristics of the U12T, but smooth...

No, I got this one (Palace class, chime series): https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000770132118.html?spm=2114.12010612.8148356.1.5eb41c97IUtbJk I didn't get it yet unfortunately, so I can't give impressions.

Oh c'mon Dsnuts! I just bought the new CEMA's Palace series cable and you appear with the Totem cable :scream::sweat_smile: They seem to be made from the same materials though... interesting!

I vote for the Leo Plus: a very good cable! It opens the sound in all directions and it tighten all frequencies. I use it with the U12T which is already very detailed, but with the M20 module and the Leo Plus, it's (almost) endgame for me! :sweat_smile: I'd like to try the CEMA's palace class...

Really like the drummers already mentioned in this thread. Thanks guys! Two drummers I like (not jazz though): Baard Kolstad, drummer of Leprous. He's young, so he gives it all with a lot of intensity :sweat_smile: : Nest one, I wonder why no one named this one yet! Gavin Harrison. He was...

Good, I'll check it out! Did you see the new Chime series / Palace class from CEMA? They aren't cheap but they look interesting. I'm not sure if I can post a link here so you can use these keywors to find them on Ali: Eagle sign: chime series upgrade cable

They came with the "premium cable" from 64 Audio. I think it's a 4 cores SPC.

I came to realize that the U12T are kinda picky with cables. I haven't found one cable that enhance "everything". It comes at the price of sacrificing something. The Leo Plus is nice, but it removes some "weight" to the sound. I don't like the 175's effect on treble. The CEMA's super copper...

Thanks for the explanation and the suggestion. I already own the CEMA's 175. Isn't it an hybrid cable with UPOCC copper in it?

Do you think it would be a nice cable for the U12T ? I'm currently using the Leo Plus and love it even if it makes the sound brighter. The added space and separation is so nice. I was thinking of trying the CEMA's super copper with gold and silver plating but here comes the OSG...

I tried some cables too: 64 audio premium cable: it sounds pretty good actually CEMA's 175: meh The PW Audio cable that came with my Hyla TE-5B: good! Close to the 64 audio premium cable CEMA's super copper: not bad, but less good than the 64 audio premium cable and the PW Audio cable Penon...

That's interesting! What did you find was lacking or different with the OS849? I'm currently on a quest for the best cable for my U12T.

Keep in mind that the Leo Plus will exacerbate the treble. It will not make it more harsh, but more present with more clarity/sparkle.

Well, after about 2 weeks of using the CEMA Super Copper cable, I gave the Penon Leo Plus a second chance with the U12T. It was a good idea :beyersmile: Compared to the Super Copper it opens up the soundstage a lot, it adds that 3D-like feeling to the sounds (holographic?). It enhances the...

Hi, I see you're in Quebec too! Where did you buy the Azla tips? Thanks! Edit: Nevermind, I checked and I can buy them on Amazon.com :sweat_smile:

Nice! The sound is getting really smooth now... It might be cable/brain burnin but ohhh does the U12T sound sweet and HUGE. Vocals sound awesome! I was using the M20 module before getting the Super Copper cable. I decided to switch back to the M15 juste to see how it would sound. It was a good...

Hey @Dsnuts ! I just received the CEMA's super copper cable to pair with my U12T. Did you try it? For now, all I can say is: WOW! It adds a lot of "body" to the sound. I don't think it alter the trebel a lot. It adds air between the instruments and make the soundstage more holographic. I think...

Well, @aminus is a fun read for sure! I really liked the den of snakes analogy :smile: By the way, most of his observations are right for me: take the OG Andromeda for instance. I bought it because of the hype train and I kinda "forced" myself to like it even if I was not impressed. All I...

I'm absolutely in love with my U12T and I'm in search for the same mythical beast... but at a cost-no-object price :sweat_smile: Maybe one day...

Thanks a lot for your answer! You made me realise that I don't have a pure copper cable :scream: So, I guess the ISN CU4 or any of CEMA's UP-OCC cables (like the "super copper" one) might be good options...
