1) Follow / Watch
Done! :)

2) My favourite IEM(s)
Itsfit Lab Fusion, Campfire Audio Andromeda 2020, Sony IER-M9

3) My favourite Eletech's product
Socrates. It is warm, smooth, forward mid and black background. It makes all my album songs very emotional and pair extremely well with most of my IEMs.

4) If you like to, let us know what you would like to see from Eletech's next!
Perhaps thick version of Fortitude & Prudence? 24awg or 22awg?

Favorite IEM: Thummim
Favorite Ele cable: Plato & Illiad.
I like the illiads thickness and feel, out of all cables pre- Aeneid. I was on the tour and tried them all. But the sound of the illiad had peaky/harsh/bright highs for my ears and extra sibilance. I enjoyed more the Plato sound but the cable design, feel, & thickness of the Illiad

Again, I want to commend on the wonderful cable that is Socrates. So much so that I’m going to get another one for my Thummim. The synergy is delicious in my opinion :wink:

Hey @Eric Chong , do you actually utilize the 5th pole in 4.4mm plug for grounding?
I'm trying to get a new Eletech cable, but torn between the 2.5mm and the 4.4mm :sweat_smile: I have SP2000 in 2.5mm and W2 terminated in 4.4mm.
For 6w or 8w cables it is indeed possible to utilize the 5th pole for grounding. However, our cables at the moment is primarily 4w, so the 5th pole is not utilised.

2.5mm/4.4mm seems to plague most people's dilemna right now. I would say 2.5mm for more versatility with adaptors but i do see the trend shifting to 4.4mm with AK themselves also leaning towards the 4.4mm as well =X

Again, I want to commend on the wonderful cable that is Socrates. So much so that I’m going to get another one for my Thummim. The synergy is delicious in my opinion :wink:
Thanks buddy~! Glad you liked the Socrates and the synergy. I noticed that you made an order without using the current 10% off promo code. I'm trying to get my admin to arrange a partial refund for you so you can enjoy the savings :) I'll send you a pm later in the day! :D

@Eric Chong, now that folks have been sharing their favorite Eletech pairings for the giveaway, do you have any particular combos that you enjoy?
Heyy yes indeed, here's how i've been synergising my gears :

Elysium /Plato
VE8 / Iliad
Odin / Aeneid
LX / Socrates
Andro / Justice
Balmung / Aeneid
Thummim / Plato
Sultan / Iliad
Every other thing is most commonly paired permanently with Project 8 Prudence :D

I should be trying out the FS soon, will see how that pairs :)

Anyone using an Eletech on the Trailli? Curious as to what people are preferring..

On the Isabellae, the Socrates is just fantastic. I had some weird preconception that the Socrates would be a bit darker, warmer... but there's some weird magic like how the Plato is silver but still sounds smooth.. The Socrates is the copper with the beautiful air and sparkle... that's not the right word, it's like all these overtones and vocal echoes that I hadn't really noticed are all coming to the fore and it just pulls you in... I just love this cable.. I dare say it has supplanted the Plato in my heart..

Well done team..

I didn’t know you went for the Traillii man!

I still hope to hear that one day! (And the Isabellae of course)

Agreed. The Socrates’s main strength is how it fleshes out and concentrates the midrange; the projection of the upper-mids, specifically. It doesn’t have the typical copper sound for sure, and I’m glad those generalisations are now a thing of the past. :)
