Effect Audio cables thread

Hi all - could anybody please share any thoughts/experience about the pair up between the Empire Ears Spartan IV and the Ares II cable - would this be a good match? I want to get an upgrade cable for my new IEM but don't want to spend a fortune.........

Thanks in advance :thumbsup:

Buddy, if you dont get any response from the community, feel free to pm us or JackVang regards to the synergy and pairing. Meanwhile, i thought it'll be a good idea for the community to advise you rather from us manufacturers :)

Had the chance to try the new lionheart and I found myself to enjoy it even more than the Leonidas. One hell of a sexy vocal.

I know right? Many people have that preconception that "Lionheart" is a lower performing cable due to the lower price bracket. I personally loved it and thought it to be performing at Leonidas or Mars level. I thought i was going bonkers... :p
Btw, if you've had the chance to demo the "Lionheart" with Psquared Plug, its insane.

I placed an order straight away after demoing it at Music Sanctuary :v:
Hopefully it will come with 2.5mm Psquared Plug.
And now the gruesome wait :pensive:

Thank you for your support buddy! :). Not Gruesome, Music Sanctuary's deliver is scheduled end month if there isn't any hiccups!

If I order a Lionheart with 2.5mm plug directly from the EA website, does it automatically come with the P2 plug, or do I have to request it?

Yes, they do come with PSquared plugs buddy :D

After reading the review (excellent, by the way), I discovered that I want the PSquared plug. Is it possible to send Effect Audio cables that have the normal plug to upgrade?

Thank you. That's the exact question I ended the review with. I am sure EA is now thinking about it because it looks like a lot of work

Guys, appreciate the loves on the PSquare Plug. Yeah we will implement the upgrade in phases as Lieven's mentioned....It'll be a lot of work and we dont wanna impact the delivery scheduling. Our lead times are still kept strictly within a week :)

Guess what arrived in mail today .. Lionheart #67 with balanced 4.4 mm - 2 pin for my noble K10s. The cable is simply beautiful and so light.. The Musician splitter is way to go for CIEMS and it keeps the cable light. Sound wise on first listen i can already see some improvements in soundstage and and dynamics over DHC symbiote fusion cable.. Comfort wise there is no contest Lionheart wins hands down over DHC .. Now waiting for burn in .. Thanks to folks at Effect Audio and Eric in particular for all your good work.. Some pics for you to enjoy ..

PS : Synergy with K10 and WM1z is really good on first listen .. Hoping will improve after burn in

DHC Symbiote cable on Left , Lionheart with k10s on right .. The Y splitter on DHC adds strain on my ears which the tiny musicians splitter on Lionheart doesn't

Thank you for your kind words buddy :) Glad you're loving the "Lionheart" ~!! You're one of the few who has been receiving the first batch! Have fun with it! Await your impressions if you have to time to write one.
