First off I would like to say Happy 2nd Anniversary for Headphone.Guru. I am a huge fan of your reviews and your overall level of humor, detail, and passion.
Are you going to be conducting your review with both the stock cable and the DHC cables mentioned above? I know most reviews are always conducted with the stock cable as a baseline, but if other cables are used they are often noted in a small sub section. I'm a huge fan of Peter's cables, so I would be excited to know your opinions.
Firstly, thank you for your kind sentiments, I am sure the rest of the team will appreciate any positive comments on the work we do. We do it for love, so its nice to receive good feedback.
I am doing a few major reviews:
I am doing a standalone review of Peter's new flagship cable the Prion4S and will be comparing that to stock cables for a number of flagship Headphones. I will also be comparing it some other TOTL cables as well as his previous Flagship the Silver Spore4. That should cover all bases. I will say that his ability to offer adapters for most Headphones is a great concept and lessons the pain of the initial outlay for the cable, knowing that you can use the same cables with a variety of Headphones.
It is always useful to know how any aftermarket compare with the Stock offering, as we have seen with Audeze and JPS Labs the quality of their stock cables test a high bar to begin with.
I hope to have the reviews out in a couple of months. I have just received the updated LCD-4 200 ohm today and once it has some time on it I will be comparing to the original 100 ohm version. Fortunately my original pair are still in good working order.
I am told to expect big things from the Utopia's and I suspect this is just the start of seeing major loudspeaker manufacturers enter the Headphone market.
