I wasn't given the option to choose better connectors and my DHC cable has the Eidolic connectors and they're in a completely different league imoSad to hear of @mvvRAZ's luck with the Athena. I have the newer gunmetal 2-pin connectors and the Pentaconn plug. I have a feeling the 2-pin connectors are identical to Eidolic (at least they look and feel like it) and the Pentaconn plug speaks for itself. Maybe their "standard" termination offerings are not up to the likes of the $888 Leonidas 2, but I would suggest contacting them and asking about the plug options you can choose for a few bucks more. For under $500, I'm extremely pleased with this cable (build quality and sound quality) and Satin as a company. Just wanted to give you an additional opinion.

The thing is, at 4-500ish $ that's barely a budget cable any more, for the same money you can get a DHC 4w which will have spot on perfect hardware
