They look great! How's the turn around time?


Lets say around 3 weeks for each order. I still love the symbiote more the clone fusion reminds me the Fir audio scorpion spc 8wires cable. I need 100 hours of burn in then will have a more precise impression. This was just 5 min listen fresh out the box.

Haha no its a brand new clone fusion. I am a lucky guy I got both and will decide the winner. But as for now its very hard to beat symbiote to be honest.

This cable is really good but Symbiote is something beyond anything I have heard so far. There is a clear tier difference and Id probably say maybe 3 or 4 tiers lol.
Not that clone fusion is bad its just how good Symbiote is...

I got a Clone Silver from DHC a few months ago for my Solaris 2020 IEMs in 2.5mm and wow the cable is fantastic. The curves at the MMCX end of the cables allow me to easily do the final twist backwards so the IEMs will make an exceptional seal in my ears. Pretty to look at too.

So after 100 hours and 4 days of running the clone fusion cable.

I can make an impression now, I feel that the clone fusion cable is really good performing cable a lot of good feelings and it sounds quiet good.

I would say that in comparison to symbiote this cable feels more like a fun cable, slightly more rumbly vibrant bass and a little more compressed and elevated bass. Treble has more sparkle and feels sharper if its present or when the song has it... Almost like a slight V shape.

The clone fusion has a nice smoothe feel to the sound and can be considered as one of the best affordable cable I think. For 550 you really get a full package here and for iems like second tier that are just below the ToTl tier is perfectly adequate.
I would not recommend this cable for someone who is looking to bring out the the totl sound of a totl iem rang level, you would need the Symbiote for this job.

So soundstage and resolution goes to symbiote the difference is really big and clone fusion dont stand even near the Symbiote performance here.

Symbiote has a very highly refined level of sound, it can get every nuances and tonality so well and realistically... Symbiote sounds less compressed and agressive.
With Symbiote treble is simply outstanding something that cant even be compared! Less elevated and more open and detailed.
Bass has a similar feeling more elaborated more open more textured. With clone fusion bass is faster and tighter but feels a little compressed.


My take is clone fusion is awesome cable but its 2 tiers bellow Symbiote and will not bring your totl iems to the full total sound like Symbiote. For any other regular iems clo e fusion is a full performer highly recommended!


I also found the clone fusion to be a stiffer cable and microphonics are a little more present then Symbiote!
Symbiote is so rubbery and flexible a really surprising thing for such a thick gage cable!

Recently received DHC Clone Silver. Apparently, I will write a review as soon. As I tame my emotions a bit)

True thing. After reading all those negative comments on the sales attitude of dhc. I am not entirely sure if it is a good idea to buy from them. I might wanna try the plussound tri-silver but I doubt this cable is an alloy cable instead of pure silver. I am having difficulty finding a cable that matches up the elite 19.

Huh? I had the best experience dealing with DHC just now. Very responsive, very helpful, very nice... and I am not easy to please. Seems like a lot has changed in a few months!

Just ordered a bunch of adaptors and cables from DHC recently, yes, orders do take weeks or months to make and send out but the quality of DHC products is always top notch and premium. I always order stuff from DHC in advance and buy cheaper counterparts else where while I wait for my DHC orders to be fullfilled!

How about waiting for more than a year already and connectors did not arrive yet? He said he will....but still waiting......
Sorry, but I don't order from Peter anymore...
