I'm sure he meant to say, "PWAudio 4-wire 1960s flagship," and not "PWAudio 4 with 1960s flagship." The former makes perfect sense; the latter makes none.

Yes it’s 4 wired. Would be great to see how both flagships fare against each other considering their price point is the same

Next up, in case you missed Lieven's earlier video release on "Horus"..
Great to hear Alex (@twister6 ) will get a review unit! He always does very comprehensive comparisons and I find his reviews one of the best resources around when I want to get an idea of how certain IEMs or cables compare, or how cables and IEMs pair up. Looking forward to his review!Soon, When Alex @twister6 gets his review unit

We're getting the 2 and 4 of the 1960 cable as well for the full review 
Cheers.
I'm currently using a Lowepro Portland 30 to carry my SP1000 and the LCDi4 wrapped around its support, pretty much an ideal fit, you can't go littler than that for these things. Thus the question was more oriented at: will the Horus case fit into this pouch together with the SP1000 (instead of the LCDi4 support, of course).
The Horus case will not fit the SP1000 in it with the headphones, it's a bit too small for that

? I don't want to fit the SP1000 in the Horus case, I want to fit the Horus case and the SP1000 into the smallest possible case. Anyways, I got the dimensions from Eric and the Horus case won't fit into my existing Lowepro Portland 30. It's just too high at 15cm, and its 5cm depth would be too much to still fit the SP1000 anyways. I ordered a Lowepro AVC 1 to fit the whole (SP1000 and Horus case). There's going to be some unused space, but I couldn't find anything smaller.

Sorry I misunderstood, yeah the Horus case is a little wide
Another way would be keeping it as it is now. Would mean the SP1000 and the LCDi4 with the Horus wrapped around the LCDi4 included plastic support. This combo fits into the Portland 30 just perfectly, but that Horus case looks too sexy to not get used
Btw, dimensions for the Horus case are 15.00cm x 8.50cm x 5.00cm just in case someone is interested.

thanks, already did
I apologize for taking so long to share more on my impressions. It is that I got this little devil for my birthday and he keeps me quite occupied.
Here goes my little review.
The package arrived from amazon just in couple of days. The amazon packing war partially teared up and I think someone was looking in to the box, coz the leather sheet was unwrapped. Thank god, the cable was there intact.
Was Kindly surprised my cable came with PSquared jack, did not expect that at all.
Lionheart + Noble Audio Katana + Mojo. The pairing is just perfect imho.
Paring with AK 70 can produce some sharp high notes which I do not like, thus I am using AK only as transport.
Apple iPad pro, iPhone 7 plus - not worth mentioning as it just kills the excellent sound characteristics.
All testing is done with lossless Flac or DSD64 tracks.
Sensitivity: otherwise very silent mojo now produces little hiss when no music plays
This applies to all aspects of sound reproduction. Imagine you have already great sounding setup and you are able to beef it up 15% +/- 5% depending on the recording. The mastering of the record plays a great deal here. For example streaming from Tidal is lot resolving than listening to the same album in DSD64.
Details: this is not about micro details. This is about details as such as you will be faced with superb reproduction and a lot of new sounds never heard before.
In Wes Burden - Brave new world and AK70 plus Noble Sage it was like there some water in the background. Katana stock cable plus Mojo it was like there is water flowing for sure. With the current setup, there is a water fall in the background, awesome. This is what I am talking about, there are details, not micro details. I could name countless examples where the sound was improved.
DSD 64: Elton John - 60 years old, The Greatest Discovery - the cello and all instruments are lifelike, so is the voice. Perfect.
Soundstage: the sound gets around your head, the width change is not that significant to the depth. This creates great 3D imaging and result in more intimate interoperation.
Sound: it is little more on the warmer side compared to stock cable, but I really like it.
This combo screams body. Instruments are extremely well separated producing full bodied sound. You can literally feel the vibe.
Comfort: very compliant cable, comfortable and has luxury feel.
Thanks for sharing! I had a brief demo with the Katana and I knew they were going to on the brighter side, but they were not as bad as I feared. Still a bit too bright for my personal taste and I felt that instruments did not sound quite as realistic. It could just be because it was a short demo at a noisy show and I went from the UE18+ Pro to the Katana, which are two very different IEMs. Does make me wonder if Lionheart improves the sound of instruments by adding that bit of warmth to the Katana? I guess it does when you say "full bodied" instruments. Is the difference quite clear?I apologize for taking so long to share more on my impressions.

Love that puppy by the way! My wife and I are pining for a dog and still have to wait until we escape London before we can get one. ...or two ...or three.
By the way, the Horus sounds pretty amazing. I also like the way it looks. It's like an audiophile's jewelry.
Here is the demo unit @Deezel177 and I tried yesterday:

Cables are men's jewellery.
