Hey Trevor!
 
Have heard tons of good things about Norne's cables. Just dropped you a PM to clarify some things before ordering! Do take a look when it's convenient for you :)

I just received me Vanquish cable for Alpha Prime headphones. Looks amazing, great build quality, and from my initial listening the sound is excellent. Working with Trevor was great to get these made, and I will definitely do further business. Great products and customer experience.

I just received my Solv X for my Audeze LCD-X/XC today!
 
For anyone who browses this thread and is wondering whether or not they should buy a cable from Trevor, I think you should.
 
He's been a pleasure to deal with since I made my first purchase in late 2014. I sincerely admire his patience and his close eye for detail. I've bought quite a good amount of cables too (waiting for 3 more) and their quality is superb. I tend to go with the Draug2 because I find them the most aesthetically appealing, but I have to say that the build quality and looks of this Solv X are wonderful.
 
I'll be honest and admit that I'm not the biggest believer in cables improving (at least drastically improving) sound quality, but I can't deny the fact that it genuinely seems like the bass of my Audeze headphones has tightened up with both the Draug2 and now the Solv X.
 
It might be silly to want aftermarket cables for their looks, but I guess I'd be no different than people who enjoy mechanical keyboards and spend hundreds of dollars on unique keycaps.
 
TL;DR: Trevor is awesome and Norne Audio does deserve all the praise it gets.

Hi Tigz, just wanted to confirm an order I placed last week. I know you're busy however wanted to see if there is normally a confirmation email sent after an order is placed? I've got the PayPal email but nothing more than that.

My puppy victimized Alclair RSM Quads jus cam back from repair, and once again I am reminded of how poor audio memory can be. Listened to several albums with the stock cable, fantastic I near monitors, plugged in my Threium 4 Wire, oy vey!!!! Huge, wide, deep soundstage, incredible detail, while retaining musicality, Trevor these are the best CIEM Cable made, no doubt. Hope to try the 8 maybe when I do my CIEM Shootout this summer.

Are the Draug 2 already burned in or do they require burn in or do they improve with burn in?
Honestly they sound great right when I plugged them in unlike the PlusSound cables which required a lot of burn in.

Can you please share some comparisons between the Draug2 and Solv X?
 
Thanks

 IMO they improve with time.  Its subtle but noticeable.
