I placed my order for the Prion and I'm hoping the problems stated in this thread are resolved. Peter replied back to my emails very quickly and even sent me multiple emails after my question to provide more details. I'm hoping the ETA that he gave me is accurate.

Anyone heard from DHC/Peter recently?

I am awaiting a cable that was ordered almost 3 months ago and I have not heard back from Peter from an email a couple of weeks ago.

Which cable did you place the order for?

When I last heard from Peter around a month ago he was dealing with a personal issue that was causing the backlog.

I don't know how it is terrible but if the outer plated silver is not thick enough, it would level up the treble "roughly" and bring stridency. I ordered both the new complement C copper and silver cables from DHC. I would post my thoughts once I receive them.
Have you received them yet?

I received my complement c (Copper) for my susvaras last week and have t enjoying it straight off the bat.

curious for any experienced opinions of how the complement c compares to the c15.

I had the Complement C before and I just couldn’t enjoy the sound with Susvara. Norne’s Vykari sounds a lot better than Complement C. Then I sold that cable and went for C15 with S-mod. And it’s like heaven and earth. It’s the best sound I’ve ever heard from Susvara (and TC and SR1a). Period.

p.s. I’ve never heard C15 without the S-mod.

Agreed I have the C15 with the S-mod and it is perfect with the Susvara and TC. End game!

I just got my Prion delivered. You can see in the photos that it is built very nicely. I haven’t had a chance to plug it in and listen to it, but the way it feels in my hand is definitely good.

I’ve been a bit frequent with my emails, but Peter has been very helpful with his very quick replies. I can say for sure that the issues that I saw mentioned in this thread has been solved.

the prion4 seems to be a very correct cable. And I think it would sound worse on a lot of setups than a copper, or a copper/silver one because it's actually how a cable should be, and most systems seem to be a bit lacking.. the fullness of sound, and color should come from a nice tube amp with high end tubes, and the resolution, detail etc. should be preserved from the dac, through the OCC silver litz. Has anyone tried a prion8? Is there a very big difference between it and a 4?
