S3 sounding very nice both with my Z1R and Stellia,but I prefer Focal Utopia for its neutral and more detailed sound.So I wish to buy a real hi end cable for them.Trevor offers S3Clear 4/8wire cable for Utopia.But I know that he had made 12 wire version of S3 for Abyss,for one of the Head Fiers
Just received Silvergarde S3 from Trevor.Outstanding quality and another level of sound.
I wish Trevor will be able to create a 12wire silver prototype)))
The standard S3 is 4-wire. He does also mention on his site that he makes an 8-wire. Trevor did mention in e-mail that he has also made a 12-wire for a customer who asked for it so if that's what you want, it sounds like he can make it. In the e-mail exchange I had with him, it did seem like it was significant diminishing returns (and the standard 4-wire S3 isn't exactly inexpensive to being with), so for me I just went with the standard 4-wire S3 (I have 3 on order so, I guess I technically say I have 12 wires on the way ).
Trevor sent me a S3C just prior to my surgery, damn, I may never go back to copper! The Vérité is such a musical headphone, the S3C maintains that, but adds a humpback whale’s salad of plankton to the mix (yes, I’m on strong pain medication). The stage opens up, fore and aft, with the imaging improving inline with the increase in information.

Silver sure is addicting isn't it? I agree with everything you have to say. Notes are also more clearly defined and it makes it easier to pick out an instrumental line. Is so much fun.
So now what about your interconnect...guessing that's still copper? I asked Trevor to make me an S3 RCA interconnect (he does have a section on his website, but it's blank). I would have also asked for an XLR too (and may do so in the future anyway) if I didn't already find a very nice one on closeout earlier this year.

Finally got my ZMF Verite Ziricote today and was able to to pair with Silvergrade S3 I received from Trevor couple weeks ago. Trevor, as always, was very helpful in helping me choose the best cable for my taste to pair with Verite. I know I still need more time to burn-in this pair but the first impression is just great! The sound stage is wide open with slight warm sound quality(still a tiny bit dry if I may say so but think once the burn-in is completed it will disappear) yet without losing the details from the classical orchestra music I am listening to. Again Trevor delivered another great cable along with one of the best customer service I have ever experienced. Thank you!
