It's not a new lineup of cables, its essentially some popular 8 wired configuration that we has never been shown at shows



Sounds like Janus!

Well I haven't heard Janus yet, but cannot wait

Will EA cables be at SoCal CanJam? I plan to attend that and hopefully pick some up on the spot, if you're bringing any for sale.

I’m sure the drink is not mandatory. I haven’t heard the Pandora, but I briefly auditioned the Titan. I found the Titan to be a really bass-y cable with a crisper treble than that of the Lionheart. The Lionheart has the more forward and bodied midrange, while the Pandora’s clear focus is in the upper-bass.

What is this titan cable you speak of? I've been meaning to invest in a lionheart in the future for my trio's but more bass to me is always welcome!

It's Labkable's ultra-expensive flagship. It costs about three times as much as the Lionheart IIRC.

I shared some impressions of the new cable a while back after CJ NY:

As for some brief impressions of the new cable, the thing that striked me most is that this is a new type of sound altogether. Coppers, SPCs, and silvers generally have their own type of signature (although there are of course many variations in their actual sig), and the palladium-plating adds something new. It had a sort of hi-fi sound, but in a cool way. For instance, even though its midrange was slightly warm and bodied, it added a clear and fast sounding treble on top. So not as warm as a regular copper, but also not as clarity-focused as SPC's can be, although the treble itself was detailed. There was a sense of authority in its sound, resulting from it midrange transparency, along with its body. By comparison, Horus sounds a bit leaner and brighter. In addition, its bass offered greater extension, resulting in a powerful sense of impact. I didn't compare or listen enough to get a sense of the quantity of its bass, but it didn't seem lacking or overbearing. There was also another prototype, where the treble was a bit more prominent, resulting in wider but flatter stage. However, I think the majority there preferred the aforementioned one.

Finally, the cable isn't 'just' palladium-plated; they actually played around with some extra materials to refine the sound. It is also a hybrid configuration, but I will leave it to EA to reveal the final details. I also just kinda forgot tbh since it was pretty complicated hehe.

Here are some crappy smartphone pics that do not do it justice, it looked pretty badass.

Janus is a cable that seemed to do a lot of things right, great bass, bodied mids, yet clean and detailed treble. But, I'm thoroughly looking forward to reading more impressions after CJ Singapore. From what I understood, the cable was still being developed, and they might merge or alter specific aspects of the two prototypes. Interesting stuff coming up!

A part of me really wants to try the Horus. Can anyone chime in on how it compares to the Leonidas?

Also, does effect audio do upgrades- as in, I can exchange my Leonidas + Money for the Horus?
