Just out of curiosity, how much does that cable cost?
Is the number I read correct?
1600 dollars?

Original price of Yatono is 198000¥ JPY, later they raised it to 220000¥. I’ve seen someone selling 4 wire yatono for 1120$ usd on classifieds. To be fair street price is anywhere from 1k$ to 1200$.

The beauty of this cable and how it’s handled is impossible to describe. Feeling is extremely luxurious. It’s a Hermes in a world of cables. Or Rolex. No other cable feels like that. On recent Canjam I have experienced all major summit fi cables, no Dita Celestee (it’s a bizzare creation of Kondo Audio Note ft Dita Audio), no PW audio(they seem nice and look good, but when you have them in hand - you know it’s a Chinese cable and craftsmanship) , no Effect Audio(same as PW) have the same feeling. 8wire Yatono is better, but too heavy, for me the ideal is 4W yatono. Silver prototype was very good tho.

Honestly in your picture sure looks nice but $1000 nice....?

However, you could also see from the photo that it wasn't just any cable... lol
Practically with that cable the cost of the Mest MKII doubles...

Ordered from Hifigo. I hope that I will be as impressed as I was with RU6 that I am still using as my main player. I preferred it over many much more expensive DAPs

Agreed! I wonder how many of us will be…?

Mest was incredibly good, Anole didn’t improve that drastically . Mest was doubled.

Next Canjam try it. SoCal, Chicago.

When compared against the RU6, the RU7 is slightly less warm/analoguish, but the RU7 beats the RU6 handily in technical chops.

Could elaborate what you mean by RU7 beats RU6 by technical chops.
