and it doesn't have the same issues as the other one.

Just to clarify, is the clamping force inside the new plug similar or less?

Less clamping force.

Less clamping force.

That should do the trick to preserve plugs' coating. Plus, that carbon finish looks great

Personally I much preferred the all metal look of the defective ones.

I still don't understand how a company like Furutech ended up selling adapters that after some fairly light use end up stripping the coating on their own cables (ADL iHP-35S). How is this acceptable? And they still sell this F35 model apparently.

I pulled out my other ADL F35s (G) and (R) and indeed they all have the same hellish clamping force -- or to be clearer, it appears to be a single inside metal connector strip that juts out too much into the path of the male jack being inserted.

Thanks for letting us know. Perhaps someone should inform Furutech about that? The odds are they're not aware that they have this issue. Tell you what, I'll drop them a mail and see what they reply.

Hey @Matez just wanted to make sure you saw my email from the other day. Understand if you are busy but wanted to make sure I don’t need to resend

Thank you!

That's a nice initiative Matt, please let us know how it goes!

I have a question; anyone know how could I tell the difference between the Noir Hybrid HPC and the Noir HPC MK2 when looking at them

You can't, they're identical.

What I did was put a small piece of magic tape on the back of each Y-splitter and labeled them.

Reading through this thread since page 200 - so where is that big announcement?

Hi @Matez sent several emails since 3/4 just looking for a quick response.

I don’t know. How do you tell the difference between Noir Hybrid HPC and Noir HPC Mk2 when looking at them?….

punchline here

A while ago Matt told us that he had multiple issues with one small necessary part and it takes ages to manufacture it right. Once that's done, he'll finally reveal that new big thing, but I don't think that this post contains any new info

Thank you, the suspense is killing me, especially since I firmly believed it to come to a conclusion till page 296 - now I know how Gearge R.R. Martins readers must feel. xD
