Definitely. I'm all for the sound quality as well.

Just released my review of the very excellent Lanzuli Reference cables for the Focal Utopia:

In short...I loved them!

Anyone mind sharing impressions of these cables with a LCD 4?
I also ordered one for Utopia couple of weeks ago. How long did you wait? Great review btw!

At the time I got mine last year, I waited 2 weeks for 2 cables (Lazuli for HD800 and Lazuli Reference for Utopia)
Can’t wait to get one.
I can't recall to be honest. Just drop them a line, their customer service is outstanding IME. Thanks for the feedback on the review...I love these cables and for anyone looking to open up the sound staging, man, these cables do that in spades!
Can you get an adapter so that the Lazuli Reference can be used with either the Focal Utopia or Hifiman HE 1000 if you are lucky enough to own both cans?? Also, is this a silver Litz type design?

I have to say, had a great conversation with Vinh through email and I ended up buying myself a Lazulli Reference cable for an upcoming Utopia purchase. Excited to receive them in a few days, as the cables were already finished but the original person who ordered changed they're mind and had a different cable made which was good or bad for me depending on how I think about it. Is it weird that I got the upgrade cable before the headphones, granted I do need a cable that's XLR terminated for my V281? 
Guys I thought It's time for me to chime in with my 2cents. I purchased the DLR cable for Utopia a few months ago after sitting on the fence for a year or so. The main reason for the delay was cost and as a UK buyer this included shipping, import duty and taxes. Not cheap on a 11,000 purchase. Anyway the main point of my post is to say to anyone thinking of buying this cable is do it. Do it now and don't delay! The synergy between the this cable and the Utopias is simply sublime. My only regret is that I waited for over a year to experience this incredible upgrade.
Sorry for the typo, they are expensive but not expensive. Should say 1,100 dollars not 11,000 lol.

OK, I tried the Lazuli Reference with the LCD4, and, yep, it's amazingly good sounding. In short, more transparency in the bass along with a great reduction in glare on tracks that had it in vocals.
And there is just a feeling of groundedness that's hard to describe exactly.
I tried a few higher end cables on the LCD4 but the Laz. Ref. takes the cake!

I mean LCD 4 is already one of the heaviest headphones in the world and adding a Lazuli Ref on top, idk what to say. I am sure it sounds heavenly but it just becomes unwieldy at that point

When I first got the Lazuli Reference, I thought the same thing about the weight but learned that keeping the cable from hanging on the ground (instead keeping it coiled up and sitting on the desk next to me) helped immensely. Now I don't really notice the weight of the cable anymore and the sound it provides is just so worth it in the end. Although this is with a Utopia...
Still, keeping the from hanging down towards the ground certainly helps.
