They all sound similar to me except the one attached to the 9038s (balanced) which has more control and separation due to the better dac and power delivery.

Hi sir, how about Intime Sora 2 vs Shizuku? And Sora 2 vs IT00?
Crinacle doesnt have the sora 2. I should get my IT00 today though and I have the Sora 2. But they most likely sounds very different based on the impressions from the others on the IT00.

Please share your review on that if you already got it. Thanks
Will review both. Gonna take a bit longer than normal with the sora 2 though.

Sorry, but this is utter nonsense. A cable can never ever improve sound quality (unless it's undersized).
Balanced vs se is definitely different. Since balaced output usually has more output power and can therefore drive the iem better.

Many IEM users who change their cables are certain they make a difference.
yeah, but a lot of is most likely placebo. Well it is a controversial topic for sure. But I just wanted to "defend" tgx78 because he only said that his balanced cable was different (assuming that the other cables are SE and not balanced) so there is 100% a difference between SE vs Balanced cables, but not because of the cable but because of the amp giving out more power.

That's why I never talk about cables. If one does meditation that is based on mindfulness and noticing then ones empirical ability to 'notice' is enhanced. Are you sure it's Placebo?

In this case it's not just "more power" but a different amp altogether bc E1DA has only one output and it's balanced. :)

We arent as objective as we want to think. There are a lot of factors as to why we could percieve the sound as being different with different cables. Colors and price are probably the biggest factors.

Yeah

You didn't answer my question. Do you think that people can enhance their ability to notice?

Definitely, just concentrating a lot will boost it and being tired will definitely cause you to notice less (at least in my experience).
