Hello. First of all, thanks for the reviews. It's very useful.Ya it is more shielded than plated. I wrote most of that review before posting, I found out it was shielded I will have to change my wording on my review later. I would say if you need a secondary cable for a different IEM I would go for the Wolfram. What is important is how I described what that cable does. It is difficult to go back to a stock cable after using the Wolfram. At the price they are asking for a set that cable is most definitely worth getting a set.
I havent done a head to head comparison to the Mix but I think the Wolfram is right up there with the Mix in what it does. It is at that level of cable. With the Mix you can tell it has more copper properties to what it does. The wolfram is more silver in what it does but with the copper element that smooths out that silver so ya while both cable use both copper and silver they are different in how they present sound. I think it is different enough to get a set especially if you want a cable that is just as good as the Mix but different at the same time for another IEM you use.
I currently own Moondrop Blessing 2 and just got Moondrop S8. For cable, I own Penon GS948. Now, I'm looking for a upgrade cable replacement for S8 stock cable. I'm considering between Penon Mix and Tri Audio Wolfram. From your experience, what these 2 cables will add/affect Moondrop S8? And which one would you recommend considering I mainly listen to Jazz, Classical, Female Vocal, Pop, a little bit of Rock? Thank you in advance for your recommendation. And will these two have similarity with GS849?
Ps. Other cable recommendation under $150 is appreciated. Max at $200.
