Too heavy?
Not for the market, most cable manufacturers have offerings with more than twice the cable mass of a Noire and they sell very well.

Personally I don't think that the new release has 16 strands, but who knows

Sure, i know about heavier cables. But for me personally the Noir Series has the right weight. More is too much to me. But this is personal preference.

So, yeah could be more strands. Burn in service, a new pure silver litz or even something else.

We'll know soon for sure. I also still don't get the wooden block announcement.

The wooden Block could be a Filter device.
This can be useful to drop the noisefloor especially when using WiFi sources.

Curious what it will be and what it will cost in the end.

If it is a Filter I imagine something like this.

Wouldn't that be weird to make an announcement of the sort for it though?
You could order the Noire Hybrid with Furutech plug for years.

Maybe, but perhaps it's an option for those just browsing the site to simplify the process. If it's more than that, then that would be intriguing.

Hopefully more details soon.

Would 100% love to see Forza offering pure silver

I use Forza Audioworks cables on my HiFiMans. Noir HPC Mk2 on He1000se and Noir Hybrid HPC on Susvara.

No need to $1000s on silly price cables. I rather spend them on tubes !

You are, for sure.

As always, nice rig(s).

@Matez new upscaled Noire announced on Facebook.

What does upscaled mean here?
Thicker gauge?
More silver?

What's keeping me very curious, is the "big brand new stuff we have in our pipeline

" that has been looming for some time now

 

[iFi audio]

I guess he mean the burn in service, could be wrong.

The burn-in service and Furutech plugs only from what I can tell. If there were any changes regarding geometry or conductive area, we'd know already I think

Agreed, I'm sure if there was more to it, then it would have been mentioned on the FB post already.

Nice.
I thought you sold HEKSE.

Nice.
I thought you sold HEKSE.

That was the picture taken just before I sold it.

I sold off He1000se, Wa22 with a dozen good tubes and some cash to fund Telemachus.

fund Telemachus.

Just googled that amp and if it sounds at least half as good as it looks, you have a lovely deck right there

Looks are the icing on the cake. After I have Odyssey (KT88 / EL34) for a while, I started talking to the builder about a 300b amp. If a 300b amp could be voiced similarly to Odyssey (clarity, fast transient, impact and wide soundstage), I would be interested. That's what I told him.

Next thing I know, he created Telemachus, the son of Odyssey as in the folklore.

@Matez hello I placed order on your website and need to make change. I sent email to you also. Thanks
