Thanks guys, if I send a JH stock 7-pin cable, would you be able to reterminate it to 4.4mm?
Also, any plan on offering EA range with 7-pin connectors?

Hi guys, as we recently mentioned Effect Audio has successfully launched a new Facebook platform. It might be interesting for those of you that are looking for an additional platform to connect more closely with us (and each other).
Be part of a community
EA Club is a growing community where audio enthusiasts come together to discuss their knowledge and opinions about IEMs and cables. In other words, a place for like-minded people that share your enthusiasm for this hobby.
Unsure about a product?
Read up on the EA products that you are looking for written by top reviewers of the audio industry. Ask questions to them and other members to inform your decision, such as which cables suit your taste or pair well with certain IEMs. Help others make their decisions.
Early access
EA club is also a place to connect more intimately with Effect Audio. We value our relationship with our customers above everything else and see them as equals: your opinion counts. EA Club members therefore get early access to new products even before they are launched, to help us and the community with feedback.
Exclusive promotions
Naturally, EA club members are regularly offered exclusive perks. In February 2021 we have the following promotions:
1) EA covers club member’s two-way(!) shipping costs of EA’s latest interchangeable connector ConX (limited to 50 pcs).
2) The launch of Onyx; a high-quality limited-edition cable, which is exclusively made for EA Club members.
With more promotions to follow each month!

Yes this is possible! It would cost $30 retermination fee and $70 for the P-Squared plug. Just drop a message to info@effectaudio.com.
We don't currently offer the 7-pin, but rest assured we are continuously working to improve our offer.

Now that a new year has begun and I’ve settled more comfortably into this position, the time has come to start writing again. So from time to time I will be sharing some content to feed the discussion.
Some ideas that I have is a ‘spotlight’ on one of EA’s cable, which is a slightly fancier word for ‘brief review’ I think. A different approach is maybe articles on which cables pair best with certain IEMs. If any of you have any suggestions I’d love to hear it
I’ve started this edition with a special cable that has deeply impressed me, and reignited some of the passion that initially drove me to become a reviewer. One of the reasons I stopped writing two years ago was because I started to lose interest.
Cables and IEMs started to become more of the same, rather than something new and special. When you’ve heard a lot it becomes rarer and rarer that new pieces of equipment still manage to impress and excite you. Code 51 for me, was one of those rare occasions where I am wowed with something new.
Code 51
We started this hobby through our passion for music. We got addicted however, by that kick you get when you hear your setup in a next level: rediscovering and experiencing your music in a new light.
Code 51 is one of those portals into a new dimension: unlocking a next stage of transparency and resolution.
High resolution is mesmerizing because it has the ability to surprise you. You’re shocked to learn songs you thought you knew too well, were mastered with even more finesse than you initially realized.
When it comes to resolution, we often think about the overall level of detail and separation. But Code 51 draws you into the dynamism of each individual note – how it moves through space and develops over time. How the chord of a guitar is shadowed by a second which you hadn't previously heard before. To hear distinct voices within background vocals, rather than as one.
Yet Code 51 presents its high resolution with a neutral tone. In fact, it’s less bright than the other silver-based cables Effect Audio has to offer. Horus' treble might sparkle more, but there's a certain understatement in Code 51's tone that allows its technical capability to stand in the foreground. The treble resonates with clarity, but the sound remains smooth.
Similarly, its tone isn’t as warm as that of a copper cable such as say, an Ares II. We often associate naturalness with warmth, but naturalness also follows from realism. Code 51 isn't a warm cable, just as it isn't bright. Yet it manages to convey a beautifully natural sound by its true representation of instruments.
Natural sound, without warmth. And resolution, without brightness.
In this way, Code 51 is reminiscent of sitting in a top quality recording studio. Each instrument is presented with both incredible precision and minimal colouring. It's up to the engineer how he wants to tweak the sound after; but you get the distinct feeling that this comes pretty close to how it was originally recorded.
Code 51 particularly excels with already technically highly capable IEMs; nudging them a step further. For instance, the Phantom sounds highly resolved when paired with Code 51, while maintaining a natural sound. But for that ultimate sense of transparency, hearing music without a veil, it's most enjoyed with IEMs as the Empire Ears Zeus-XIV and 64 Audio A18.
Either way, it's destined to impress. Code 51: the perfect reminder why we started this hobby in the first place.

I am expecting Code 51 to come in tomorrow, if the weather allows (can't blame DHL for any delays considering the amount of snow we have over here). Very curious to finally hear EA's flagship for myself.Now that a new year has begun and I’ve settled more comfortably into this position, the time has come to start writing again. So from time to time I will be sharing some content to feed the discussion.

With which IEM and DAP are you going to pair it?
Effect Audio Onyx Review
Big thanks to Effect Audio for loaning the EA Club exclusive Onyx to me for 1 week for a full review!
When paired with my IEM collection and music library, I find the EA Onyx a great cable for accentuating the bass region. It makes for an excellent pairing with bright IEMs for more balance, whilst retaining the same DNA in the upper-mids and treble which may have been the initial X-factor for the listener.
It is for a review, so I will be experimenting with a few options. For IEMs I am really curious about the pairing with the Empire Ears Phantom, FiR Audio M4 and Vision Ears VE5. I have others as well, but those I find really interesting. The main DAPs I use will be the Shanling M8 and Lotoo PAW Gold Touch.
Are you interested in a specific pairing? If I happen have it, I will be happy to try that out for you.

Thank you Wyville, very kind of you!
I was interested in Rhapsodio IEM (Supreme, Infinity) + AK DAP
Ah, unfortunately I don't have access to the Supreme or Infinity. Would have liked to, but did not get the opportunity. The only Rhapsodio IEMs I currently have are the Eden. Also don't have a current AK DAP (just my old AK70).

Hey guys, we made a nice little video to show the simplicity of the ConX system. Take a look at the EA page to see for yourself!
