Hello All, I have the Fourte and Legend EVO, powered out of a Kann Max, and am looking for a 4w/8w cable.

Does anyone have any experience with these iems on Cables like :-

1. Chiron -4w/8w
2. Leo 2 octa
3. Horus - 4w/8w/X
4. Code 51
??

So far I've tried both on Horus 4w and 1950s, and loved the EVO to bits with the Horus 4w while Fourte paired better with PW audio 1950s 4w. I have gotten the 1950s, but I'm again confused as to whether I should stick to Horus 4w or get an 8w straightaway for the EVO.

Also, I don't have the option of trying these cables majorly in India (Horus was my friend's cable so got lucky there), so I have no choice but to go blind. Hence some advice on pairing experiences from the great members here will be very helpful for me in taking an informed guess.

Looking forward to all your guidance.

Regards,
Vishy

If you have tried Horus 4w and liked the pairing, Horus 8w will be a safe pick as it shares a similar signature, but has a even larger sound stage, more details and dynamic and also the notes would have more density to it.

Look who just popped up on the inbox:

My own Ares S and Cadmus. My LX and A12t are quite happy.

I am also using Ares S with Legend X. It pairs extremely well with hybrid iems. Lots of energy for the bass , bit extremely tight and detailed.

An upgrade from the stock Ares II.

How does the Ares S pair with the UM MEST mk2? Anyone here had any experience with this pairing? I was silly and ordered my UM MEST mk2 with the 3.5mm jack and now need a 4.4mm cable lol, Thanks

Today I’m giving a whirl to Cadmus with the Trio. I find this to be a really good pairing. I’m listening to a classic rock playlist and this combination is great for rock.

In my detailed review of all three Signature Series cables I did a pair up comparison of each set with a number of popular iems, including Mest MKII and picked my personal reference with each iem. Ares S was the one for Mest MKII to my ears. More details are in the link above.

Awesome, Ill give your review a read through, How did you find the 2 pin connector on the Ares S with the Mest MK2?

Are you referring specifically to compatibility with EA modular ConX? It's universal 0.78mm connector, no issues. Do you have issues with Mest MKII and its stock PWA cable?

These 3 cables really blow a huge punch to the cable market. Especially the Ares S, what it offers is an unmatched level of bass punch and details across the entire spectrum. It is extremely balanced and easy to pair with basically any IEM. Literally one of the best-performing copper cables out there, even matched eye to eye with the other few thousand dollars cables.

From my understanding the ConX 2 pin will sit higher than the PW 2 pin that the mest mk2 came with? Just want to know about robustness if that makes sense?

conx adapters are very reliable, I jave zero issues with them at all. They are robust and really heavy duty. Con X is just really nice to have as we can try multiple IEMs with our cables.

Am I correct in thinking that the new Signature series are ConX ?

You are correct:

All the cables in the Signature Series will feature Effect Audio's ConX™ Interchangeable Connector in its Ready variant which includes a pair of 2-pin connectors.
