Hey OCC7N,

as far as i know for the iHA-6 above, there is no difference circuit based using Dual XLR3 or even XLR4. It should matters in some special cases (SE HP's, adapters, aso).

In general/ beside the setup above, XLR3 has ground, XLR4 does not.
*someone please correct me, if i am wrong.

Stay healthy and enjoy music. 🎶✌🏻

Cheers

2x 3-pin or one 4-pin XLR is a matter of convenience, but the circuitry for both should be the same and I'd be surprised if it weren't. Hope this helps, thanks!

For what it's worth, Noir is a clear step up over Claire and the better your cans, amp and DAC are, the more audible that difference will be :)

Need advice please ...I don't know but I need 2 cables ....1 for my focal Celeste to 4.4 and one mmcx for my two pairs Fiio fh9 and ibasso it01x also to 4.4. they will play either to my ibasso dap or on the ifi zen dac 2 on the laptop . What are the diferences between copper series MK2 and hybrid series ?

Simple question, how long were you guys waiting for the cable?
Last time I ordered at Forza it Took only a week. (Custom length, so nothing he had in stock already)

I've ordered cable two days ago (via page) and nothing is happening, there is zero feedback information :frowning2:

Usually upon placing an order you're in the system and then several working days later you get a mail with tracking. If I were you I'd wait at this point and possibly contact Matt if there are no updates after this weekend :)

Varies significantly in my experience. Generally, what you describe is it how it works. There's no "ordering in preparation, "order dispatched" update. Often, I'll just order and then two weeks later it arrives, even though I didn't receive the tracking. It's not always as efficient or communicative as other brands, but end results are worth the wait.
