I hope this doesn't come off combative - I'm just throwing it out there for general interest and info:
[size=medium]
I know for sure that a "stock" P cable is 25 ohms, and APureSound P cable is 20ish, and an APureSound S cable is 75 ohms. A fellow head-fier was nice enough to send me both of his APureSound cables to try, and let me buy the one I liked best. I checked 'em out with my trusty Fluke while I had the whole pile. I kept the P cable. Note that I think the APureSound sounds the same as the "stock" P cable, basically (Sorry Alex!). I like to wear my IEM cables over my ears, and the Ety cables are not conducive to that. The Ety cables are miserably microphonic and long also. Plus, my Ety's are a few years old, and have the ugly green pod in the middle. Basically, I spent a decent piece of change for ergonomics and appearance. Note that the APureSound solved all my issues with a really nicely made cable (does that help any, Alex?)
I did not check any of the cables with the actual IEM's attached, so I don't know what the resistance is with the IEM's in the circuit. It looks like the impedance switch will definitely be "close enough" to the S sound for me.
EDIT - Oops! Off topic - Sorry!
