Yeah, as others mentioned, while most of the EA cables are on sale at MusicTeck now, I don't see Leo II in that list anymore. But either way, I would contact MusicTeck directly to find out about Leo II. Andrew usually takes good care of his customers.

Thanks to Erik, @Wyville, for a great review contribution. You can read his Eros II 8-wire Bespoke cable review here, soon to be published on head-fi as well.

A simple Ares II 8 wires can make a huge difference. Extremely high performance. The pairing is so good with ZeusXR.

@Gavin C4 love that zeus! Simple and clean. Can't wait for my Spartan IV CIEM to come in next month.

Initially paring it with a linum but do plan to pick it an Ares II up eventually for that pure copper sound to bring out the low end a bit more.

@Drunkenmunkey
Aries II 8 does wonders with Spartan IV, that was my go to pairing before Zeus.

I have had the Ares II 8wire with Spartans before and agree it pops up the bottom but treble and upper midrange were rolling off then I switched to Eros II 8wire. That is why I am now very satisfied with what I have. :smile_phones:

Very cool. Good to hear. With my college student budget, I'll look into the Eros as well and see what I can do!

Your linum cable may not be able to fit the sockets as it's connectors are for flush sockets, maybe you can talk to empire for an ares to audition?

I had the Universal Spartan and had no trouble with Linum cables before selling them to commit to a custom!

Any clue what Musicteck uses for shipping? It only lists international shipping. Canada Post is on strike and I rather not having my cables stuff in a trailer somewhere....

+1 , call me very impressed with how Ares II makes my Zeus XR sound

Soundstage has expanded , bass hits harder , sound is fullerthan before while keeping Zeus TOTL transparency/separation

a great cable for the price
