Very nice! Do you like the Viablue connectors? I've heard they're pretty durable.

How much was that cable?

I can't comment on the durability as I have only had the cable for a few days, however the size, look and quality of the connector is excellent.
I paid $91.50 USD plus postage for the cable. Jump on the site - Best in the Verse cables and you can see how much it will cost for your config as you go.

Don't want to hijack the Aeon (great headphone) any more.

Jimster,

I use DH Labs Silver Sonic cable that I use for my HD 800S & HD 650's that I make 20 foot cables from....they will sell you bulk cable if you are interested...Ask for Greg

Thanks, I'll look them up and reach out sometime next week.

I would also be making RCA cables and maybe XLR (although lots of companies make XLR and its not very popular).

But I think RCA stack connection cables (under 1 foot with quality materials/connectors) and headphone cables are the two things which are in demand.

You are most welcome! XLR cables are popular for fans of DAC's with XLR Balanced outputs...like my Yggy...I would not give up so easily on those cable configurations

I am excited to read all about the Aeon's....I want a great closed set of cans....thought I wanted the newest Sony....but the comments about the Aeons makes me think they will work great!

Well, this turned out even better than expected. 8 wire braid, yet still thin and flexible. I think Lindsay upped his game on this one.

That is gorgeous. Same pricing as their regular options or (I'm assuming) more expensive?

I got my æon yesterday. Been listening with Tidal Hifi. They sound really good out of my ipad air 2. Been A-B testing with my moon neo 430had and ipad air 2. There is not a huge difference! Was thinking about getting a mojo for the æon but im thinking the ipad sound is not far from the moon neo 430had. Find it weird. Any input here?
