So I have Questions, has anyone tried out the new moon cables, is there an option for pentacon iem end eg not mmcx.
Do the 0.78 connectors fit IMR iems?

I have the Crescent moon and the light blue standard version, while the crescent moon is a cut above I would still highly recommend the standard versions for unparalleled value for money, I believe all cables are available with 4.4mm but for the 0.78 you'll have to check with Ian directlySo I have Questions, has anyone tried out the new moon cables, is there an option for pentacon iem end eg not mmcx.

Cheers I've sent him an email the new moon definitely look the business and are priced nearer my budget than other Alternatives of similar design. I'm looking to use them with my Meze Advar, Acoustune HS1670SS or Acoustune HS1655CU depending on connection optionsI have the Crescent moon and the light blue standard version, while the crescent moon is a cut above I would still highly recommend the standard versions for unparalleled value for money, I believe all cables are available with 4.4mm but for the 0.78 you'll have to check with Ian directly

And my IMR Bass Cannon (23)
Its such an unknown quantity when it comes to how a cable interacts with particular iems so a gamble with serious effects to the wallet if not ideal.
100% agree with your sentiments here. The bottom line for me is that Ian is a class act in every sense of that phrase. His products (I have three) are outstanding in terms of construction and sonic output, and the same can be said of his client service. He lets his cables do his talking and I do not and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who's looking for these important components.I placed a custom order with Ian at Cosmic Cables UK. It was for the Pluto cable with Eidolic black XLR 4 pin and Furutech 4 pin Mini XLR.
Previously I've used the Meze Audio Furukawa Silver Plated PCUHD upgrade cable and still have and use the Lavricables Grand pure silver cable with my Elites. I've always fancied a Norne cable but the price after import charges etc can be a little off-putting. Also, it just felt better to give someone in the UK a try and save on the air miles etc.
Why Pluto? While I love the Lavricables Grand with the Elites, I didn't like it as much on my new pair of Atrium Closed Ash LTD Purple Burst. The stock copper cable seemed to have a better balance, possible a little too dark. I'd also read that some found the Meze silver cable worked really well. So, as the Pluto is a silver plated OCC cable I decided to go with that. Very easy to deal with Ian via email and very helpful!
Anyway, I received the cable the other day which arrived in sealed bag in a fabric stuff sac with purple twist ties.... nice touch... and I was very happy with the quality and feel of the cable. It has a very similar feel to the Meze cable, very soft rope like feel and the colour and style of the cable is very appealing a little different to most I've seen. Just what I wanted, something that had an understated style that wouldn't necessarily compete with the headphones and a little different! Sound wise, even very early on, it's sounding very good and, as expected, tonally sits between the stock and the LC Grand. Soundstage depth has increased over stock and imaging / layering has become more defined.
I really can't get my head around why there's only 7 pages here... seriously, the quality of the work etc with the cable I've received matches both Meze & Lavricables. The LC Grand is actually harder to handle as it's a heavier gauge wire, which is unavoidable, but the things I enjoyed in terms of handling with the Meze upgrade cables stands true with the Pluto from CC. I will be making a point of recommending Ian to those I know are based in the UK. There really should be more activity here!
Anyway, a couple of phone pics... bit low light today (chucking it down) so not the best but should give a good impression.
