Hahaha. After the X pre order I am beyond broke so maybe when my money tree drops more cash down the road I will look into this. EA does Pentaconn connectors with their ConX modules which will work on the X, so I am slightly intrigued just off of that alone

I am a little concerned that it is 26AWG in total. I would have thought a larger gauge might sound better. I also do not get the display stand. Does EA think we will display the cable by itself? Still, I would like to hear it as EA usually will not have any microphonics.

I've discussed Effect Audio in the past - I'm a satisfied user of several models of theirs, from relatively entry-level to higher up the food chain. Their products have always appealed to me as a rather good value proposition. I consider them among my favorite cable makers along with Toxic Cables, Charleston Cable Co, Cabledyne, and CablePro, for my various cable needs. Wow, I just wrote the word "cable" way too many times.

I know we have an existing thread but as the OP has long since been banned, I figured I might start a new one. It's particularly timely as Effect has a contest going which ends later this month. HERE is a link where they give more details. Now, I don't normally care much for contests, but in this case I like it because A) they are furthering the discussion rather than simply soliciting "likes", and B) the "prize" involved is a $999 cable - not bad, right? Typically this sort of thing would involve a $100 or $200 prize, rather than the top model. So I figure it is worth posting. Entries are due by the end of November and I'd love to see a forum member take home the prize. If you do, I expect pics!

Speaking of which, here are some various shots of my Effect arsenal. I've picked up quite a few of them over the years for my Audeze LCD-2 and LCD-3, IEMs, and Mr Speakers headphones. Currently have some more on the way too. So, yeah, you could say I'm a fan.
























I'll add some pics of my incoming models once they arrive. I've got a Thor Copper 16W on the way for my HD800 and an Eros Reference for my HE-1000, plus an Eros 8W which I'll primarily use with a Noble K10.

Anyone else have Effect cables? Please discuss or post pics.

need to buy some custom cables these might be just up my ally

From what I understand, the display is for cable and IEMs, to display both of your "preciouses"

Thank you everyone for your participation. We will be ending off the contest right now! Do lookout as we share more about our brand new flagship coming out in July!

26 AWG x8 wires is around the same total conductor area as 23 AWG x4 wires. However, the extra insulation, dieletric, litz core etc. makes it significantly thicker than the equivalent gauge, which makes it much less comfortable IMO. This, paired with a heavy splitter can make the cable feel really unwieldy for porta-fi/earphone usage.

Wondering what‘s best value add cable to some Sony Z1Rs?
