How could anyone differentiate between the Noir Hybrid HPC and the Noir HPC MKII? Is there any visual or cosmetic difference between the two?

Thanks.

It is written in green letters on the Forza site:

NEW! All new orders will be upgraded free of charge to new hybrid wires with hand woven damping core made of Java cotton for improved bass definition and focused high frequencies.

I don't think the damping core has any influence on the visual appearance of the cable.

I own both cables, the Noir HPC MkII and Noir Hybrid HPC, and to me they look identical. I can tell mine apart because I chose different plugs

Yes. My question was about that issue. I Have located a second hand cable but, how could I know if someone is selling me the Hybrid HPC or just the Noir HPC?

There is a warranty card that comes with every FAW cable, stating the type of cable, serial number and date of purchase, as you can see from the pictures in this thread. That's how you're going to tell which cable you're buying.
If your seller doesn't have the card anymore, then I guess you'll just have to rely on trust.

Do you use both cables with the same HP? If so, could you elaborate the differences in SQ between them?

Thanks!

No sorry my Noir MkII is single ended (6.3mm) with mini-xlr connectors for Audeze, etc. while my Noir Hybrid is balanced (4-pin XLR) with 2.5mm connectors for Oppo, Hifiman, etc. so I cannot comment on their sonic differences.
Hope somebody else can answer your question.

 

[mmwwmm]

I know what Matt says about differences between them but I’d like to hear some first hand user comments.
Anyway thanks for your answer!
