Effect Audio cables thread

Thanks Deezel177, I'd hoped the new Y-splits were lighter than the old full-size ones which seem unnecessarily heavy. I can't help but think wood might be a better choice, given hardwoods like ebony are renowned for having favorable acoustic resonance properties and are lighter than metal. Probably much more difficult to source in bulk though.

Don't know if they still offer these, but the musician's Y split is by far the most unobtrusive I've ever used. No weight at all, it's great unless you're not a fan of the aesthetics of it's simple form.

Unfortunately EA are no longer offering the musician’s Y-splits, or so I was told fiascogarcia.

I have it in my CIEM Spartans when I ordered...

Any cables for my UM ME.1?

 

[ctsooner22]

They once made half-metal-half-wood Y-splits for their China-only limited edition cable. I doubt we’ll see any more of it unless we ask very, very loudly.

Man I would possibly buy a new bespoke cable just to get that splitter lmao. Love that one. Thanks for sharing

As @Deezel177 wrote, it was produced for a limited edition cable, that's why you cannot see it on the website

Really love bespoke cables from Effect Audio. Picture of the M4L4, MarsLeonidas 8wire. A great pairing with the Zeus-XR. Very lightweight considering it is an 8 wire braid. Extremely flexible. And most importantly, it sounded amazing.

Could you kindly share a comparison of the M4L4 with a 4W Leonidas?

Is that yours? I am using this with my universal Phantom

Horus 8 arrived today (yay!)

Haven't done any comparisons or listen for an extended period of time so just going to put down some initial thoughts and pics below. I also don't have a spare Horus 4w around to compare against unfortunately. I only ordered a 3.5mm SE adapter.

Packaging impressions
* leather case, comes with desiccant inside. Build number engraved on back of case
* leather cable strap
* keychain looks like it's made from Horus cable

Cable notes
* Y splitter is larger version of the one supplied in the regular Horus, has the build number engraved on it
* Thinner than Janus D
* Very supple / flexible, no memory effect

Initial audio impressions (source: WM1Z, universal Phantom, Acoustune blue (bass) tips)
* Smooth, warm natural sound
* Coherent
* Microdetail
* Overall pairs nicely with Phantom, like regular Horus
