I'm curious about this as well. I have the Grand 20 Core for my Ether C Flow.

His cable look and sound good, but too stiff

I think 12 cores is more than enough. I use 4 core silver cable (from toxic cables) with my LCD-2.

What gauge are the cores? 24awg or heavier is important if you want to get all the benefits of silver plus a decent amount of weight and body. Lesser gauges can sound thin and a bit anodyne. The actual number of cores makes no difference to the sound it’s all about the quantity and quality of metal.

Note sure of the gauge, all the DIY cables on his site says 28awg so maybe the headphone cable is also 28awg?

I just got the master for my Utopias and it seems like a really nice cable. The Teflon insulation is really cool, slippery and comfortable for listening in bed against my skin. the silver inside gives it a cool shimmery look too.

@Sotiris did you get the 12 core or the 20 core? How do you like the cable? I'm thinking about buying a Lavricables cable too.

No i dont recommend the 20 cables.... They are too many and the cable gets to stiff and too heavy.

https://www.lavricables.com/cables/grand-20-core-silver-meze-empyrean-upgrade-cable/ The new 20 Grand has 4 cores. So what about that number? I bought the Grand for the Empyrean 1,5 meter will not be that heavy I thought. They are cryo, so frozen? I always thought cryo was a hoax.

Hi, I bought the Empyreans second hand, and I was warned it had less detail than say the Stax L700, others answered: you must hear it with a silver cable please. So before I received the cans with stock cable I ordered the Lavricables Grand Litz. I listened to the stock cable some days before the Grand was in the mail. With the stock cable I used the leather pads as they are called more analytical, but with the silver cable I use the velvet pads, since it doesn’t lack any detail, and why choose analytical when you can have sheer beauty? I was warned the Grand is like an Audeze Lcd-4: too heavy, but that is the photo, it is not too heavy. So I will be still a bit careful with delicate silver. My Stax L700 cable has a lot of silver in it. High end music listening seems not possible without the benefits of silver. Thanks Yoram
