New Release | Effect Audio Chiron

To EFFECT AUDIO the Hall of Fame series is a place where one fascinating cable after another comes into being, reminiscent of the Hall of Fame that honors outstanding individuals.

Suyang, Founder of EFFECT AUDIO


Chiron was the most intelligent Centaur in Greek mythology, and much sought after as a tutor of heroes. He was aptly named the 'wisest and justest of all the centaurs'. He resided secluded on Mount Pelion with his knowledge, where he studied and learned in his cave.

CHIRON - The Hermit in Mount Pelion

Chiron unveils the next chapter in the Hall of Fame series - a combination of the new flagship Centurion’s power and Horus’ magnificence.

"In me, the tiger sniffs the rose.

Tiger and rose are within every man, who controls the balance among them are the truly strong."

-Ancient Chinese proverb


CHIRON will feature Effect Audio's prime UP-OCC gold plated silver-gold alloy material, mixed with the classic material of the Hall of Fame series - UP-OCC gold plated silver. The result is a perfect blend of「the Power of A Tiger」 and 「the Refined Delicacy of A Rose」.

CHIRON’s finish is modest yet sophisticated. EA's customized ‘C’ titanium slider was inspired by its capital letter ‘C’. The combination with the addition of jewelry cutting modeling technology results in a very natural look.

CHIRON’s modest and sophisticated design features a matte sandblasted titanium plug casing with carbon fibre paired with titanium shelled ConX® Interchangeable Connectors.

Much like a humble hermit whose light was hidden, while remaining the center of attention with its talent and potential.

Hermits are the headstrong in their pursuit of perfection. This is the first time we debut the EA Ultraflexi insulation with Matt Clear Black material to create a relatively soft and wide surface that dissipates the pressure around the ear. It brings comfort without reducing stability.

Hall of Fame needs to be renamed Hall of Legends. Hall of Fame makes it sound like it shouldn't be still active.

In astrology, Chiron is 'the wounded healer'.

i had a chance to listen to this cable with Aroma Jewel in canjam. I'm not sure exactly how much this cable contributed to the overall sound, but damn, this pairing's soundstage was HUGE.
$5000 IEM with a $3000 cable. And that’s before any source equipment. For that kind of money I’d expect to hear the voice of god.

Heard the Chiron at Canjam; it sounded dry and brittle to me.

Janus Basso revision with a more pliable cable would be my simplest wish. Janus IMO were the hidden gem in the Hall of Fame which provides IMO better synergy with lots of IEMs than any Gold Plated Silver/ Silver Gold Alloy wires

Hmmm the inspiration from Greek culture and mythology is kinda funny given that Eletech started doing this quite a while back.

Plato, Aeneid, Iliad from Eletech and now Chiron from Effect Audio.

Lol

Just FYI, Athena used in 2009, Apollo used in 2010, Ares used in 2013, Poseidon used in 2019, Hades used in 2019 by Effect Audio before Eletech even established.

@MusicTeck is sooo talented to find great pairing for us:)

Janus Basso is simply a legend, the mids and bass is outstanding.

It is our bench mark to design next gen copper based cable, please stay tuned with us:)

Just got the EA Chiron cable today and am pleasantly surprised how this cable performs. Firstly, I am quite satisfied with the ergonomics. The cable looks and feels almost like cloth but it is actually ultra flexi insulation in matte finish. The comfortable level on this thing's top notch while suffering almost no microphonic. I verified the EA quality here again.

I bought this cable mainly for my jewel and it clearly exceeds my expectation. So far I thought code51 was the best match for jewel but now Chiron takes its performance to next level. It is indeed the best cable I could marry with the jewel. The tightness I hear through this cable is just amazing. The bass comes so natural and tight, the way I always dreamed of. Another enhancement I experience over code51 is the precision. You would think pushing the resolution to this level would make the sound rather sterile but only enhances the naturalness based on pure accuracy. The jewel keeps its smoothness.

The sound stage expansion is also evident not through just the synthetic elevation of holographic effect but you simply pick up more sounds from every corners. Obviously, the cable transmits and feds more audio data to Jewel. So I far I am impressed with the cable for its appearance and sound. It's the cable made for jewel.

Is the 8 wire braid still soft and supple ? I’m still rocking the stock cable with jewel.
