This is just a follow up of my impressions of the Lazuli Voila. My experience with the Voila has been and still is emphatically positive.
I've had the Voila for several months now, and for sure, I can say that it is the best sounding headphone cable I ever had. The break in was subtle for me, but it sounded amazing from the start. If I had to characterize the Voila's sound with a word it would simply be "beautiful". It's an enveloping type of sound. The mids have a slight hint of sweetness while not straying away from realism and natural timbre. The same goes for the highs, just a hint of sweetness with excellent top end extension and sparkle. The low end is full but not bloated or sluggish.
What I found surprising is that this is the first headphone cable, that I currently own, where there was no sonic compromise, at least for me. For example, a cable(full copper) with a well rounded low end, could suffer from sounding a little too smooth and monotone. Another cable(mainly silver) could have a spacious stage, adequate detail retrieval, and speed, but lacks density in the mids and lows, and sound slightly thin.
Those who have seen my posts on the Susvara thread know that I have been a big proponent of the stock cable of the Susvara. I praised the mid density, low end heft, adequate top end and just the overall enjoyability of the stock cable over so many after market cables. After a few months of listening to the Voila, I swapped to the stock cable out of curiosity, and I was shocked. The once enjoyable stock cable, when compared to the Voila, sounded flat, harsh, and dry. That sweetness and the enveloping naturalness that the Voila imparted was not present in the stock. In my opinion, the Voila is the first cable to not only have surpassed the stock cable, but surpassed it so utterly and completely that I could no longer recognize the stock cable. And just as a reference, I've preferred the stock cable over some aftermarket cables retailing at $2,000 dollars or more.
Pros: Sound (of the cables I've tried, none do it better)
Cons: Price (but when purchasing the absolute best, it is to be expected)
Ergonomics (did not bother me at all, but some might find the weight bothersome)
Chain:
Susvara -> Voila-> Enleum 23r-> Holo May kte

How are you guys enjoying your fully burned in Viola’s. Any of you using speaker tap also?
There’s simply more of everything. More signal; an even more open, clearer, better defined image; a more engaging, vivid and enveloping soundstage; increased body, richness, and three dimensionality.
Yet in a completely refined and integrated way that matches the character of the headphones.
Overall, although it’s now become a cliche, it genuinely sounds as if the Susvara OG has had a veil lifted. The cable truly enhances these headphones, bringing them a good few steps closer to their full potential.
Despite this, there are some gripes - although beautifully made, the cable is heavy and unwieldy, and its rigidity and clumsiness occasionally dislodges the 3.5mm jacks from the headphones when I’m working at my desk. Sitting still in an armchair with it carefully positioned, however, there’s no problem - and it’s well worth the effort!

Have you had the opportunity to compare the Viola to the DHC Chimera in your setup? Thanks.
Unfortunately not. A comparison would be very interesting.

Hi guys does dana poeme utopia have the same warm as dana Nirvana.thanks
The short answer is - Yes.
The Poeme will also have more extensions and sparkles at the top and better sound stage - wider and more separation of instruments.
