I ordered The Drausk on the 4/4 and it's going to be delivered tomorrow. From what I've read in this thread I wasn't expecting such a quick turnaround, but I knew that going in and was okay with it. I did order a standard five footer so maybe that had something to do with it..
Thanks Trevor for answering all my many questions, and for the upgraded shipping at no cost to me!
I placed my order for the Drausk on March 27th. But I ordered a longer cable length, 9'. So I realize that these larger gauge cables are all hand-woven. It takes more time to physically make a longer cable vs. a shorter one. I'm sure Trevor is working away and I'll have my Drausk in no time.
@Passenger11 don't forget to share your thoughts after you've received your new cable.
@fuhransahis - So funny, we share the same sound signature preference, I think! We have the same amp (Echo), same HP cable (Drausk) , and I hope to get a ZMF pair of headphones (Atticus) this summer.
(I use my Drausk with the LCD-XC and LOVE it- I may have to get another one if I get the ZMF, even though I will be tempted to get a Silvergarde S3-C as an alternative to switch back and forth with a Drausk... I’ll ask for Trevor’s guidance on this when I get that far!)
I had an auteur with volsund and silver draug.
the volsund “amplified” what the auteur offers.
the silver draug played well with it and gave more detail and a bit more energy.
I preferred the silver draug. But both (silver and copper) are good and are different offerings
i would recommend having/trying both
(and use adapters if your headphones have different connection)

As always their conclusion is that all cables, dacs and amps sound exactly the same ... I really wonder how they manage to Not hear the difference between a pure copper and pure silver cable

I'll share mine. My experience with Trevor's cables owning a Draug 3, Silvergarde 1 and 2, and now Draug SC3 Fusion, has been that the copper has more present upper mids, and bass, and silver tends to open up the mids a bit, and add more inner detail while shifting the presence more toward the upper treble. So I typically get a smoother, yet more detailed sound, with tighter but a bit less impactful bass and a bigger stage, with all silver. Trevor's silver cables definitely are warmer than most, and are quite the achievement, but I still like his all copper or hybrid variants best for my preferences. As, of right now I am really digging my Draug 3SC Fusion, but I still love my Draug 3 too and this has me very interested in the Drausk.

Would be great if you'd be open to trying out an upgrade cable for yourself and report back with findings. Norne offers money back I believe, or you could easily sell too.
Just a reminder that this thread is dedicated to impressions and discussion of Norne Audio's cables. Any who would like to debate more broad, general differences or lack thereof between cables are invited to do so in the Sound Science forum. There are numerous threads dedicated to cable debate there, but if you don't see one that matches the topics you'd like to cover you're welcome to start new ones.
Let's please keep all discussion directly related to Norne Audio in this thread. Thanks all.
