Why, it's the one after Type 1 copper of course. Thought that should have been pretty obvious.

 
Sorry. I should have phrased my original statement better. Type 2 refers to the litz construction, not the copper.
 
Type 1 litz is like regular stranded wire in that all the wires are twisted together at the same time, except the individual strands are insulated.
 
Type 2 litz is made up of multiple twists. In this case, eleven strands are twisted together. Then three bundles of those are twisted together. And finally five bundles of those are twisted together (11 x 3 x 5 = 165).

...And how long does it take you to twist all that wire?  Don't your hands (and eyes) get tired?

 
Cheers!

Oh, I don't bother myself with such lowly work as that. Besides, my hands are too big and my fingers too fat.
 
For that work, I've got elves.
 
Picked 'em up real cheap back in 2001 during the big layoff at Keebler when they were bought up by Kellogg.
 
They can be nasty little bastards, but they work hard. And best of all, none of our labor laws cover elves.

LOL!
I bet you feed them Lucky Charms to keep them contented.  They wash that sown with some good Irish Stout, no doubt.

Hey, don't blame ME! It was Kellogg who laid 'em off. You know how it goes with mergers and acquisitions. Cut out the dead wood. Kellogg already had a large stable of cute animated characters so they decided to ditch a bunch of the surplus elves.

Sure. Licorice, chocolate, lemon custard and vanilla. Sprinkles are extra.

Are you kidding me? Have you priced kid's cereal lately? I could feed 'em steak for that!
 
I keep 'em contented by letting them know that if they don't give me any grief, I won't turn them into the INS.

The Licorice Cable is excellent!  ...and I thought I didn't like licorice. 

 
Cheers!

Thanks for the cable Steve! Only took a few days to arrive at my door XD. Sounds great out of the Tiny Tube amp/dac.
 
My brother borrowed my Lyr and the NFB-3 ain't gonna arrive till early June, so the Tiny Tube will have to do for now.

 

[HK_sends]

Good looking cable you got there...
 
Cheers!

Another vote for the Q Cable!  Did not expect much improvement over the stock cable when I ordered it...but was pleasantly surprised!  A must have upgrade for LCD-2 owners...and at a very reasonable price too! Thanks, Steve.

Gah, I hate how my earpads look so horribly built when I see the other local LCD-2s
