Thor II Plus
I think I'll have this connected to Fourté tomorrow to help while away my workday. :)

Do any one have suggestions for a very high quality interconnect from 4.4mm to 3.5mm unbalanced also need 4.4mm to 2.5mm balance.

Early impressions... it sounds more like Thor II 8-wire than standard Thor II. It's stiffer and less ergonomic than Thor II 8-wire.

Love the sound! Everything feels bigger. The bass really fills out. Yet clarity remains utterly pristine.

It's an excellent cable.

Sorry for the ignorance, but what is the Thor II Plus? I thought it was the 8 wire, but obviously not. Thanks. Can't wait to hear your review.

Exactly. All the Plus versions of Effect Audio cables is merely a thicker gauge variant of the base model, which is 26 AWG. Plus is 22.

Assuming both 22 versus 26 gauge have the same number of internal litz cores you have 2 interesting choices:

22 gauge wire is over 2x as thick as 26 gauge so 4 wire 22 gauge has more cross sectional wire material as 8 wire 26 gauge.

8 wires of 26 gauge has 2x the litz cores than 4 wire 22 gauge resulting in almost 2x more wire surface area.
