Do you have the 4 core or the 8 core? Is the 8core quite heavy? And what's the difference in sound?

I personally have an 8 core cable. I used to have 2 of these 4 core arctic cables for 2 different headphones. I contacted Roy from Arctic Cables and asked if he could 'merge' them into 1 new cable when I finally made the decision that the Stellia would be by end-game closed headphones. The 8 core is not heavy compared to the stock cable. If the sound differs? No clueDo you have the 4 core or the 8 core? Is the 8core quite heavy? And what's the difference in sound?
I get it, so your decision was about ergonomics and microphonics. not sound. because I am rather interested in a sound upgrade (if there is one)I personally have an 8 core cable.

I hate the stock cable and will never use it so can't compare to that monstrosity.
Correct!
I've never experienced a big jump in quality differences switching from one cable to the other, but ymmv.

A change in cables is doubtful to make headphones you didn't like into headphones you all of a sudden do like.
Woo makes great stuff, but I would highly recommend the Pro iDSD. In my opinion, either that or the Hugo 2 are a perfect pair for Focal headphones.
Funny, I love how efficient these are and I haven't had any desire to drive them with anything more than my Dragonfly Red, although I have a Cobalt on the wayHi, I finally bought the ifi Pro iDSD and man... You were right, it's a matchup made in heaven with the Stellia

If you want to use your Utopia high end cable I would contact Sean Ee at seaneeafc@gmail.comDoes anyone know if a high-end cable fixes the muddy bass of the Stellia and the rough treble?
Focal was so brilliant to change the connectors so that I cannot use my high-end cables from the Focal Utopia’s to test it.

I figured he was trolling. There is no mud in the bass.Yes a cable upgrade can release further potential in in the Stellia, but with out wanting to be rude, can i ask what made you buy a 3K pair of headphones when you found neither the bass or treble to your taste?
