Effect Audio cables thread

[Vitor Valeri]

Hi, glad to hear that you are enjoying Root cable. Finally, I have another owner to ask for. Do you feel like this cable needs to be burn-in? I have reached out to EA, and they recommended burn-in for 100 hours.

Actually, I only received a pin. I didn't get the Root cable as a gift from Effect Audio. But I'm curious about it. What's your opinion about the Root cable?

They were giving them out as gifts?

It was a game that Effect Audio made asking what you would give yourself for Christmas. The most liked answer would win the 15th birthday pin. This happened on the Effect Audio Facebook page.

Hi, my initial impression of switching from Eros Anniversary was that the space felt tighter and less detailed in the high. In return, I noticed more boomy and full bass rather than more impactful mid-bass from Eros. For the midrange, at first, it gave me the feeling that the vocals were pushed too hard on some songs. However, after two weeks of use, I’ve grown to appreciate the warm tonality. EA informed me that the cable needs 100 hours of burning in to fully optimize its performance.

Additionally, I’m pairing it with the VE10. Hope that would help.

Hi yall, was looking for some advice with choosing an new EA cable. My go to iem currently is the 64 audio Tia Trio and I use a cayin ru6 with my iphone for streaming primarily (I do have a DAP, but probably need to upgrade it). My question is which Signature 2 series wire would pair best? I own a Ares S 4w which I love, but was wondering if there's a better pairing or if it's even worth upgrading.

Do you want more treble response than what you're already getting with your Ares S 4W?

Ya I feel like that's what's lacking a bit with the Ares

And do you want less bass at all?

Welcome! Glad I could help!

EDIT: Wait, IIRC, there should be a tour of the Signature Series II units running. Then you'd be able to try them all before deciding. Yup, here's a link: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/effect-audio-signature-series-ii-tour-us-eu.974494/

Ah, this all makes sense now. HAH!

Cadmus FE is mine since one year ago or something,

Definitive pairing with my 台灣Aure "PrimeS and QLS 361 dap.

By the way, about the Centurion :

This is the only cable I know which is just essentially perfect with... everything I have tried with...

Centurion love goes strong to this day!

Revisiting a friend's Noir.

Forgot just how good it sounds. Vocals are really amazing.

Thanks so much! It's a good nostalgia listen for me now, too, that's for sure.
