Passing just to reconfirm my impressions after a few months.

Ares S and Cadmus never left my 12t and LX since I first listened to them. I love these cables. :wink:

Happy New Year you all!

So Code23 is a copper cable? No silver or anything else?

Yeah guys, it's a copper 'only' cable... but wait, there's more:

It's also (without a doubt) the best sounding copper (SPC included) cable that I've come across during my now almost 10 yrs HF audio adventure!

It brings better resolution and clarity without any mudiness or distortion to my (C)IEMs. Beware, with clarity I don't mean brightness. So, for the extreme trebleheads among you, a silver cable might probably still be the better choice. But those silver cables won't bring you the fullness of sound and the lows that the CODE 23 will bring you.

Now, I have to admit that I'm a sucker for deep sub-lows and a holographic soundstage. Well, this cable brings you both in spades. And on top of that some top notch imaging and instrument separation.

So far there have only been a few cables that have really impressed me over the past years. For instance: the PW 1960s on my Zeus XR, EA Horus & Leo II (loaner) on my Phantom and the R4 & R5 12(!)wire SilverFy cables, when I had them on a loan. But imho those 2 last cables where only useable (way thicker and heavier than the CODE 23 here) while sitting down.

And now there's this CODE 23 to join that small selective club of cables that made me go...

Now, let's wait for the official launch and in the meantime...

With the new Code 23 I’m getting quite a 3D feel to the sound and some superb layering to the music. It has a very full sound and to my ears it can feel like I’m in a room with big speakers. Lots of detail coming through with a good deal of separation between instruments. I’m still trying this cable out and so I’m looking forward to more listening.

Whats impressive about what code 23 does is its added height of sound it produces for IEMs. I am astounded by this ability. Its literally like opening up the headstage for IEMs. The added height element is something different from any of my IEM cables. I have always been sold on UPOCC copper cables as being the best of the best for copper cores but the way Code 23 was weaved together clearly has an affect for is sound presentation.

And believe it or not. The Code 23 is not the chonkiest cable in my sound chain. Love me some chonky cables.

Happy new years to everyone visiting this thread. New years resolution, MOAR Chonky cables please!

Has anyone experience of the bespoke Effect Audio Horus + Cleopatra cable? I would like to purchase an EA cable that suits the EE EVO, but information on this is scarce.

Had anyone received their Christmas cables yet?

Received my Eros S a couple of days ago. Beautiful cable, pairs nicely with my Audeze Euclid and a significant upgrade over the stock cable.

Loving this price, I was not expecting it to be so reasonable! I am after a cable for my Empire Ears EVO currently so this is very interesting. I guess what stands out for me as a worry is the cable thickness as for me this will be used when out and about so it needs to be comfortable also. Any feedback on this?

What I am curious about is, does it come with a carrying case? Because for sure it ain't gonna fit in the regular carrying cases, and definitely not in the Signature series carrying pouch.

Hey @Ace Bee yes it comes with a custom designed carrying case that would fit the cable and an IEM 😎

@JordonEA Can I bespoke the Code 23 with say the Code 51?

That would not be possible due to the differences in sizes. The hardware wouldn't fit as well.
The sound of that mix would indeed be interesting though! 🤓
