I too am lucky that my wife enjoys music as much as I do and sometimes joins me at local meets and events. At the last The Source AV event we both had the opportunity to listen to the Sennheiser HE-1 as well as the MrSpeakers Æon and Ether Electrostats. She loved the Ether E as much as I did.

My wife also loves music just as much if not more than me so she comments on everything that I get.

anyone tried those metal-free carbon IC's with mimby? http://www.vandenhul.com/products/cables/the-second-r-halogen-free
to my ears SPC drastically improves its SQ but I'm getting a used pair of THE SECOND so I'll get to hear how much magic can be milked off this little wonderbox

I don't think it would really do anything tbh

Loving my new cd player ( i havent had one since 1998) and schiit dac
They make a huge sound difference. Night and day over blue ray player as a transport!

You could likely get similar results by adding a iFi SPDIF purifier between the BRP and the DAC.

I tried the original USB iPurifier with the Mimby and to my surprise it made a difference, it's subtle but the treble is crisper and less fatigueing or so it seems. Hmm, now I got the itch to get the iUsb too as my setup suffers from noisy ground as well.

Good to know, I plan to use iP2 with Mimby.

Cables are cables, there is no actual difference in transmitting power unless the length is extremely long or the cable itself is not thick enough.

In the cases of analog signals interference is possible but its easy to pick out. Once you are getting clean sound without interference there is nothing else to improve as your sound is already being transmitted as it needs to be.

Cables are cables....

 
You go ahead and believe that if you want.

If they make a difference one of the cables is faulty (and it might not even be the one you think sounds best).

Cable discussions like this don't go well. Can you agree to disagree?

Probably a good idea....
