Any thoughts on cable for Moondrop variations?
Penon Mix or Penon GS849?

I would advise something like the Mix as it has both silver and copper and is a nicely balanced cable which shows both aspects of copper and silver for earphones. Does extremely well for hybrids and tribrids.

The GS849 matches well with the old blessing 2 because those needed some added coloration to the sounds to wake up some dynamics to the sound so I dont know if that one will be a good match for variations. I would go with the Mix. You cant go wrong with that cable.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱:
I'll make it short and meaningful instead.

𝙃𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙜𝙚𝙞 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙠𝙮 - This cable fits perfectly for Single DD IEMs I've tested it on BElieve and I'm surprised about the changes it gives, BASS is more tight and it is less warm than the stock cable, MIDS are less weighty and adds a bit of transparency while TREBLE are more controlled compared to the stock.

𝙃𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙜𝙚𝙞 𝙁𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙘𝙖𝙙𝙚 - This one fits surprisingly well on all BA IEMs atleast for what I've tested, I've tested it on Dunu SA6 and what a pleasant surprise, I love how it gives more air and have much more leaner sound. The separation improvement is quite notable, less congestions on busy tracks specifically Pop Punk.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱:
𝙃𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙜𝙚𝙞 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙠𝙮 - It's a mix of Copper and Silver cable that gives this beautiful looking light copper cable, from the stopper to the plug it definitely feels premium I can really tell that this cable is expensive just by looking at it, I always have this OCD when it comes to cable, small kinks and even a small loose on the intertwined cable brothers me, and this is perfect! I couldn't find any flaws cable isn't stiff nor too soft, it feels and builds like it'll last long on a heavy use.

𝙃𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙜𝙚𝙞 𝙁𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝘽𝙧𝙤𝙘𝙖𝙙𝙚 - This cable is a mix of Silver, Gold and Blue for me I kinda like the look of it but not as much as the Morning Sky, this is more substantial than the Morning Sky and definitely feels way more solid, splitter and stopper is bigger, and the plug is definitely are more premium than the Morning Sky.

𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Should you buy these? The question that only you can answer, but for me? I would definitely pick this over other brands as I have more assurance on the quality of the cable. If you love premium cables and have enough to buy one, why wouldn't you? Is it worth it? For the build alone! Definitely! I would recommend this for those who loved premium cables and for those people who notice a difference on the sound I hope this should serve as a guide on which to pick depending on the configuration of your IEM.

Thought I'd throw this out there to those folks who have purchased the Penon Mix cable (or basically anything from them). I ordered one last week but haven't yet received any order confirmation or shipping notice. Is this typical for them?

Is that necessary? I don't mind waiting in the blind if that's their normal process. But if not, then I'll pursue it further.

Penon is a good reliable vendor. Did you open an account? If so, go check on it. Ali Express is SUPER slow, but they barrage you with Emails. Penon is faster and different.

No account. I don't buy that much stuff and honestly I hate all the emails and sales ads from these places.

You know you can always opt-out of sales and newsletters.
I have an account for the Penon website and never got any newsletter or sale notice.
