Er it will be too fking thick and u better have a good dap to output enough power, I tried comparing 4 vs 8 braided I can conclude the theory that 8 are more smooth at the cost of being laid back where as 4 braided are fast and forward sounding.

My understanding is more wires less resistance (based on physics), so I don't think It need to amp or increase volume at all. Anyway thanks for your impression between 4 & 8.

Yea less resistance that why smooth. However it get difficult to drive from a smart phone.

Hi guys, I'm new to Effect Audio products. Heard positive things from my good friends from MS. I'm currently looking to upgrade my HD800's cable. I'm using QP1R as main dap, any recommendation would be great. Personally, i think HD800's signature is completely lifeless next to Ether headphones so I'm looking to make it as much sweet as possible without harsh or too bright, also without losing any resolution because I love details and resolution.(I know it's kind of hard to find this kind of sound without sacrificing others) . My budget is 500 for now. Thanks

Not harsh or bright, Thor sliver 2 a good choice.

Interesting, I was expecting some kind of hybrid or copper cable instead of silver. Thanks btw

What can Effect Audio recommend me?
 
I am currently using SONY 4.4mm Balanced Kimber Kable on Andromeda with WM1A. The Kimber Kable is a 8 Braided copper cable.
 
I like the room filling background sound and depth in the front.
 
But it lost some details compared to ALO Reference 8 Cable i have. Which is a hybrid SPC and copper cable.
 
I want something like the Kimber Kable but still maintain clarity if possible a bit more highs.
 
Will Eros II+ or Thor Silver II+ be better?

U can try bespoke cables by telling them ur desire sound then mix different products of theirs into a new cable. Maybe end year I will try it lol

Using the Thor sliver 2 8 braided with empire Spartan for 3 weeks now. I start to notice the transition of the sound signature. The high became very natural and more smooth. The mid are alluring to me, especially female vocals. The low surprisingly change the most as the bassy nature was gone. It's still tight and nice. The soundstage remained the same which was wide and spacious.
