tianwaitian clone ordered. hoping i'll like it, gonna compare it vs my custom 4 core palladium plated silver + gold plated copper cable once it arrives.


i wish solaris OG wouldn't flake. god this combo was absolutely gorgeous.

My original (???) TWTs arrived. I paired it with Moondrop S8.

Compared to my last pair of gold-silver-copper cable (priced around $1XX). There are even more details. Everything jumps out that much more. Bass, vocals, trebles, everything.

I think the biggest difference is the micro-details. It's like watching 5 different TVs at once. Every sound in the music now has its own channel. I need some time to adjust to this almost ADHD wave of information, since I don't know which part I should focus my mind on. There is a scary amount of details.

Bloccs are excellent cables especailly when on sale. If you want more treble detail I would look ins C4-1 which is a silver coated UPOCC. Much brighter than standard UPOCC. Otherwise look for a sale and give em a go.
I ended up getting the C4-1 not so much for the brighter treble but because I thought the Blocc 5N looked too thick for wearing glasses with. Hopefully I made the right decision. It helps that right now both cables are on sale at aliexpress. I paid $68.57 total with free shipping.

I like this with my IER Z1R while TWT with U18T

Interesting, even I am not liking TWT with Z1R for narrow soundstage. ALO Sliver is much better with Z1R.
Would like to try Au-Ag alloy, which core you are using with Z1R, 4 core or 8 core?

Any SQ difference between core?

Decided to put my 2pin 2.5mm CEMA Tianwaitian up for sale. It sounds amazing, but I need a lighter cable for portable use.

Received this 8 Core NICEHCK LitzPS Pro yesterday and I must say, it's sensational with my itsfit Fusion. I alway liked the Fusions but always felt the treble a little veiled. They are brand new completely different IEMS with this cable. Beautiful deep tight bass, gorgeous mids as before but the magnetostatic with this pure silver cable has come alive. I can't take them out of my ears. There's greater extension and far more sparkle in the top end. It's basically the 8 core version of the same 4 Core cable @Dsnuts has written about and reviewed with nicer hardware. At $40 this is one the best deals I've come across. I'm really happy with this purchase.

You tell em @holsen. You can't fake real silver. Kinda difficult for some to believe even now. It is most definitley worth mentioning on this thread. Silver is whats for earphones.

I'm a believer. Later this week I've got the dark Jade showing up together with a SPC Furukawa so I'll be able to compare back and forth, but the difference between this Pure Silver and the sock SPC (which sounds great on my EDPs) is night and day.
