How does the Solvine sound in comparison to the Draug V3?

My Silvergarde SX cable and adapter came in the mail this week! Needless to say I was very happy it arrived. First impressions were "Wow, that is one sweet looking cable". I have been using it with my Noble K10's and DX220 for on the go and with a Hugo 2 at home and in the office. The sound quality of this cable is nothing short of outstanding!

@TigzStudio, You my friend are a true craftsman when it comes to these custom cables. I've seen and gone through a few and I can say that as far as I am concerned Norne Audio will be my source for aftermarket audio cables for my IEMs and Focal Clears. The wait was worth it.

Listening impressions - What can I say? Perfect? Everyone is different as far as preferences but I will say that the Silvergarde SX has opened up my K10's. Mid-range and highs are clear and articulate and I am able to pick up nuances in songs that I haven't heard before and the bass is now almost too strong for my taste. I have had to back off a couple of frequencies via equalization. This purchase was one that I will have no second thoughts or regrets about. Would recommend Trevor and Norne Audio whole heartedly! :L3000::L3000:

I believe Trevor considers the layered S3 his flagship. "best" can mean different things to different people, but for me, I'm standardizing on S3 layered.

Thanks. Ordered a 4 wire one for my ZMF Eikon last night to go with my Draugr 3.

Can anyone here tell me the difference in sound quality between a Silvergarde Layered S3 4 wire and an 8 wire?

That's what I have for my DIY planar headphones. Both are brilliant cables. Compare to Draug 3, my first impression on S3 is better bass and treble extension. Great dynamics and imaging and without being harsh at the same time!

For sure, my friend!
The Silvergarde is really a hard cable to beat.
With the Eikons it is a perfect match: it literally makes them fly.
ZMF Eikon and Silvergarde 3 are really a splendid pairing: the money best spent on audio for a long time.
I had no doubts, but my ears confirm it!

Congrats! Welcome to the Eikon + S3 club.

Thanks for replying, I think he missed my message or he wait till he finish all the job of my cable and email me.
Hope to receive those items soon!
So I can compare 4,8,12 wires and also do a review of norne s3 vs dhc prion4 vs superconductor
Plus a short review of the speaker tap of S3-12 wires
