I've heard my LCD2.2 without fazor on a balanced setup once (Mjolnir and Gungnir) using a random balanced cable I've found at a meet. To me, the setup completely changed the sound of my headphone. The LCD2 became airier, soundstage increased, bass became punchier and tighter, and the highs became sparklier. It was as if a veil was taken off. I really liked what I heard. It never occurred to me whether that change was due to the cable and/or amp/DAC. Perhaps the cable was a silver cable (it was sheathed, so I couldn't tell)?
To anyone with experience with a balanced setup, do you think that the sound was attributable to the cable or the balanced architecture of the amp/DAC? Can I still get this kind of sound using Audeze's stock balanced cable?
