As stated, I’ve used these over and over during the years since 2009, the ones he picked up on eBay looked legit to me as well.I think, those were legit R1’s .. The price really went down due to the lows on Japanese Yen...

Not for long Japanese yen just hit the 139 to $1 mark, coming back strong.I think, those were legit R1’s .. The price really went down due to the lows on Japanese Yen...
Viborg red copper spades……., way to go, and don’t feel bad about buying the smaller gauge neotech wires, as they seem to fit said spades | application nicely.Just an update with this.
I recently received some copper washers from ali and replaced the stainless steel washers where the y spades and ring terminals connect to the pcb. And of course nano liquid in between all contact points. The retail price on the nano liquid has gone up to $190 btw.
After some burn in time the sound has changed a bit, pretty much only improved. Dynamics all around are extremely punchy. Separation, soundstage, depth in particular has improved quite a bit. Listening with my focal clears, its indistinguishable from speakers at this point. Bass has also increased from before burn in, which is surprising, I thought it would calm down a bit. It hits absurdly hard with the denon d7200s.
I must reiterate that the only thing in my audio chain that is connected to this plc is my pc.
I regret being a cheap bastage with the 14awg and not getting the 12awg neotech occ copper wire.
Ops, I'm talking about the Argento Flow IC cable. Now soldered make from USB ONE 2 (the same as for the speakers, the same as the IC cable odin 2 ) and so I soldered the DC cable going from the power Linear sp to my DAC. A completely different "opera" coming out of the speakers. The bass became legible, vibrating, the no compression , more air, more clear no plastic echos on mids, it plays like my DIY cable, but better, much better . The piano began to sound harmonious, .....Your welcome……, yet I’d wager if something is heard nicely through tube amplification, it should offer a slightly different, but not worth sound on solid state gear, other than the legit NordOst cabling which I’ve come to believe was designed primarily at the time to bring about strengths in pure SET based systems, where they tend to lack nimbleness | top end sparkle, much like in the old days of classic sounding tube gear, relied upon brands like Telefunken | GE | Raytheon to compliment their weaknesses, and restore a sense of balance to the presentation.
The brand Argento, for the most part has remained very very popular amongst East Asian based music lovers, primarily because most love tube gear, and secondly if one was to look closer at the music they listen to….., it isn’t very challenging to say the least, as they tend to like acoustic based instruments, like woodwinds | an occasional drum here or there, and are absolutely smitten with piano trio type recordings, so in that sense none challenging to a cable that’s voiced to spotlight instruments above all else, vocalist need not apply.
Adjust said remarks accordingly | just enough it. Neighbors and all.Ops, I'm talking about the Argento Flow IC cable.

I have unhappy neighbors, since I often test short fragments on different records, I can poke for a long time song by song testing my sound system
Sorry ARGENTO .
Best if I clean up my all negative posts about Argento .
very simple, throw it away, you don't need it, I didn't have it on mine . Apparently it was put in order to secure the wire when the internal bolts are crimped and going to wireGuys, need some help. I opened Odin Gold plug to apply the Nano Liquid but had some issue putting this plastic piece back (see arrow).
Any advice how to put it back properly?
You’re more than welcome young man. And while I can’t speak on the clone Argento Flow IC’s, I’ve owned the real Organic pure copper IC’s from this company back in 2016, yet over the years have disc in my system copper simply rolls off to much detail, especially at the very top end, and while I’ve ended up with both the Odin 2 Silver standard IC’s | XLR IC’s | Odin Gold IC’s, none of them have made it into the system quite yet, as I’m reluctant to remove my pure silver Yannis Tome 222Connect Litz IC’s, once again……, they’ve just fitted perfectly as how I wanted “ Mi-Fi “ final voicing.
Now onto changing out a few power plug connectors | add a couple of grounding cables | I’m set.
I experienced the same thing. What I eventually figured out is where to place the clear sleeve before sliding the shell back in place. Its a b*tch but can be done. Must be patient while doing it.Guys, need some help. I opened Odin Gold plug to apply the Nano Liquid but had some issue putting this plastic piece back (see arrow).

Noise was reduced. Background becomes darker.I experienced the same thing. What I eventually figured out is where to place the clear sleeve before sliding the shell back in place. Its a b*tch but can be done. Must be patient while doing it.
I see the Oyaide EMI tape and know you applied the Nano Liquid. How does it sound to you after these two tweaks?
Nice. Now curious, where else within your system did you apply the Nano Liquid?Noise was reduced. Background becomes darker.
And Nano does make the music sounds more LIVE and natural. Loving it so far

If they only knew how dramatic an improvement it can make...Noise was reduced. Background becomes darker.
