I honestly can't stand his reviews but that's just me. I'd rather watch Zeos babble endlessly for 30 minutes about his cat.

He actually preferred the HE1000 Unveiled for its bass performance than the Susvara Unveiled. All I need know is that his Aune S9C is pretty lackluster with driving either version of Susvara. Heck he probably never heard the Susvara OG slamming and having dynamics as well or better than a well driven ZMF Atrium Open.

I have been a believer in cables to an extent and have always gotten what I thought were good solid cables...I own the upgraded cable for my 1266 and have the star 8 for the immanis of course...I recently got a norne vykari cable for my unveiled and I am trying to figure out if it is all in my head of or is a placebo effect but my unveiled sounds liek a different HP to me...literally aspect of it sounds better...the soundstage,detail..bass etc...in fact to my ears it truly now rivals the Immanis and I am a bit shocked...I do not think it is a placebo thing but who knows...all I know is I am really enjoying the unveiled

Yes, i had the same reaction when upgrading from the stock cable to the Arcticcables Apeiron and then to the Euphoria, i would have never thought i'd buy a 3k€ cable, but it makes the Unveiled just sound so, so much better, it's nuts. The Unveiled really needs a good, thick TOTL cable to sound best. The biggest difference is in the bass and dynamics, which this headphone desperately needs, hehe..

Susvara is so revealing of everything that even just changing the power cable that connects from wall to your power strip makes quite a noticeable difference

Shhhhhh! People who come in to the Susvara threads don’t want cable talk!!! :)

Once you’ve gotten to this level, the source chain changes are more noticeable! When I had the unveiled, the AC Euphoria certainly was a great pairing with it.

He used to have some good insights when he started the hobby some years ago with the Audeze LCD2C and LCDX but quickly went downhill with his impressions as he slowly entered summit-fi equipment. I stopped watching him long ago, IMO he is just off the mark with most of his observations and opinions.

Hi. Just made the move from Susvara OG to UN.
Is there a consensus yet regarding 'best' type of cable for the UN? Hybrid (copper/silver), or pure copper to tame the highs?
With the OG i was using a Forza Hybrid. Sounds pretty good with the UN too, but i'm finding long listening to rock & metal a bit fatiguing now. I already have a fair amout of silver in the interconnects/power cables.
Maybe that's my answer...

I highly recommend a thick cable either way, probably either hybrid silver/copper of even full silver.
Thicker cables really help to improve the dynamics which the Unveiled really needs and it's such a light headphone anyway that i don't get bothered.
Arcticcables have a really good knowledge of the cables and the Unveiled and i was extremely happy with the drastic changes that came from first the Apeiron and then the Euphoria. I would not go for a full copper cable since it gets the treble muted too much. You can read more in the Arcticcables thread if you search for my name.
I am extremely happy with the Euphoria but can totally understand if it's too much cash (it would have been for me too if i didn't get so wowed by the Apeiron).
Something like an Arcticcables Grandis or so is probably more in line with a not that giant budget.

I actually found latest black HiFiMAN “crystalline” cables to be a good budget option - they are half copper half silver as I understood.
If the same has x2 wires, better purity abd shielding the results would be awesome I believe, so maybe it makes sense to look this way.
