Received my cases and packaging today as well! Was secretly hoping Eric made a mistake and sent me an extra Iliad and Plato.. a bit unfortunate that he didn't :D

They're top quality stuff, will post some photos later as well

Received the Prudence after some insane overnight shipping. Totes possible bcos we're in neighboring countries btw.

The presentation is subdued but elegant, so Eletech might also be short for Elegant Technology lol. A simple cloth pouch and a cowhide cable tie adorn the Prudence.

The cable itself is exquisitely built, and has some of the best ergonomics I've tried. Soft, supple and flexible with almost no memory effect, it's a joy to handle.

Most exclusive of all are the matching Y-split and jack, in black and bronze with the signature polygonal design. This is a design language for the ages.

I can't wait to listen to them lol.

Sharp looking cable and looking forward to reviews. I plan to give a listen at CanJam NYC next month, as well as all the EleTech cables.

Laying down my first impressions of the Prudence before the Lunar new year takes over my life for the next few days. Excuse the poor image quality as I am literally listening in bed.

20200123_003744.jpg

The mission was to find an ideal cable for my Lime Ears Aether R, a balanced IEM with good timbre. Thought of doubling up on the timbral goodness and bought the pure copper Brise Audio STR7-SE for the job.

Yup the tone is excellent as predicted, but I began falling asleep at the wrong places during listening stints with the Brise/Aether pair-up. No matter how smooth and organic it felt, notes lacked bite and urgency, and that last burst of air for excitement. For reference, LCD-2 was one of my least favorite headphones.

So when Eric came along and recommended the Prudence, marketed as a best-in-class SPC cable for vibrancy and dynamics, I thought why not. No actually I thought hell yeah!

These are initial impressions, and I did some a/b-ing with both cables until I noticed the differences consistently that it was unlikely to be placebo. Listened to Tay-tay's 1989 because it's one of the first albums listed in alphabetical order.

The bass is tighter and digs deeper, hits harder. Unlike the soft, tender loving caresses of the Brise cable, Prudence is no-nonsense and incisive, delivering the vital punch and leaving a trail of air behind. Notes are well-defined and textured, and more dynamic than the Brise.

Mids and treble tell the same story. The timbre is maintained, and kept the way I like it from attack to sustain. Crucially, the Prudence adds crispness, urgency and air to the decay of the notes. Soundstage is rendered deeper and layering is immense, although the Brise Audio is wider and shallower.

So yeah, do believe it. The Prudence is indeed a lively, vibrant and dynamic cable that pairs amazingly with the Aether R, making it a fun, balanced IEM, and I will let this combo stay for awhile more.

Officially received my Prudence today! Right off the bat, I could tell the difference between this and the Ares II on my Legend X.

This cable has exceeded my expectations! Pairing with my Legend X, it feels like there's a lift in everything - detail, clarity and tightness, making it more balanced. Highs are more airy and sparkly, bass is tighter (without losing out on the impact and quantity), mids are also clearer.

A great upgrade from the Ares II!

Aww, Im sure the Companion cases made up for the disappointment :p

'Guess who's getting a brand-new leash? :p


Oh dude, you should have told me earlier. I would've printed your dog's face instead of the Spartan image. How cool would that be! :D

Drop by and say hi! :) It's gonna be a cold Canjam but we're looking forward to hang out :D

It wasn't easy, but I managed to stick to the theme...

Now time to get a new dog :D

Nice to see positive impressions for Prudence. Will receive mine tomorrow, got this to pair with Itsfit Fusions, hopefully it turns out well. Will also compare this with Leo II against U12t and Fusion.

Yeah I imagine Prudence would help the Legend X heaps, it needs all the treble and air and sparkle it can get. The bass tightness is also welcome.
