That matchup looks like 🔥 Almost made for each other. I have Raphael incoming and can't wait to pair it up with Rn6.

Ja, it’s a gorgeous cable and hardware. It doesn’t visually click like EA’s Eros Anni but I prefer Raph’s gold-plated copper + gold-copper alloy pairing with RN6.

I originally ordered them for my EXT, which were paired with ET’s P8 Plato x Socrates for almost a year, and improved EXT’s signature in many ways. But they’re also oh so guuuud with RN6, I’m probably going to have to double up though I’m more likely letting the EXTs go for a future FiR.

Can’t wait to read your impressions with the pairing. I’ve been on a 2hrs plus Aes Dana listening session with them on N30LE in Hyper Mode / H gain / Tube Classic timbre and it’s just pure atmospheric electronica bliss - the soundstage, layering, clarity, detail, bass and texture *chefs smooch*

That looks freaking gorgeous. How is the xe6 sounding on that bad boy? Or are you trying to find out yourself? Lol?

This cable is beautiful and maximally synergistic with xenons.
He is great and terrible like Ozzy Osbourne!)

For those that are going to be at CanJam tomorrow, you can stop by the Bloom Audio table and listen to the electron prototype with the “not your father’s electrodynamic driver”. I would have loved to attend but we are in the thick of preparing for the launch.

This was the Electron 12 prototype(?) shown at the HKAV shown in August
That’s the one ☝️
Still unsure about electrodynamic vs. regular as the names seem to be used interchangeably. Release deets will probably tell all.

Uggh, why am I asking this, but did you get an idea of price of En12?
