Wow. @hotfever, that's a fantastic looking cable. May I know how many wires are used on them. Thanks.

it is a 8 wire in a square-braid configuration...............machined braid ofcoz,very very nice,sexy and well-build

 
FYI, Trevor's wire is not OFC, it is all OCC to be exact!

Thanks for the clarification :) 
All cables have been OCC + Fine stranded enameled Litz since 2011

Received my Draug v2 and I am using it with the HD800. Sounds transparent and more "coppery" (sorry for the non-detailed description), when compared to the original cable. It looks like Screwdriver's, only I got a black Neutrik 4-pin XLR termination and an XLR to 6.3 mm Draug v2 adapter cable with silver Oyaide 6.3 mm. 
Will post some more details about the sound at one point but I like it.

When you say coppery are you referring to a more rounded robust sound or to a clear but slightly caramel overcast? Also, what is the difference between the original Draug and the Draug 2?

  The Draug2 is quite thick. I don't personally consider it 'heavy', but it definitely is thick. Would be quite a sight on a CIEM!

Building a D2 for iem....oh my..  That would be some feat, not sure that kind of girth would be preferable for ciem.

100% October, just hoping for the first week of October, but it could certainly bleed into the second week.

I will be ordering a Mjolnir/Gungnir combo in the next couple days and am going to also order the Norne Vanquish for my HD800.
I have never owned a balanced amp before. 
Is it better to go for the single 4-pin XLR or the dual 3-pin(since the Mjolnir can use both) or does it make no difference?
