More like you need to be a saint !Cables are great, support is great, Trevor is a very nice person, but you need a lot of patience when dealing with Norne.

Seriously, best cables in the business and Trevor is a pleasure to deal with.

Quick follow up to my earlier post.My new Norne cable arrived yesterday (Drausk Lite). Too soon to say much about its sound qualities, but, dang, this is a visually stunning cable that also feels fantastic in my hands--especially considering that I'm upgrading from a ~$50 Hart Audio cable. First impressions: surprisingly supple, so it lays easily on my desk or lap with no noticeable microphony. Only listening impression at this point is that I now realize in retrospect how warm and bass-forward the Hart cables are by comparison. Not worse or better, just... different.
Also, Trevor was a real pleasure to deal with. In my experience, he was both responsive and generous with his emails. Highly recommended.
It feels perverse to say, but after almost two weeks, the thing I've enjoyed the most about my Norne cable is the process of disconnecting and wrapping it up for the night, followed by unrolling and plugging it back into my amp the next day. In my headphone life, I've only ever left my cables connected to an amp all the time. But I simply love handling this cable and the quality connector. It's similar to why I love playing vinyl. It makes listening to music a wonderfully tactile experience. Not at all what I expected (in a good way).

Incoming new Norne alert!
Found a Solvine on AudioMart and decided I must have it - so.....
Bam!
Should be here next week. In the meantime, I guess I just have to slum it with my Einvaldi

It is just a titanium boot + polished silver ring on a Neutrik HD-Series female front. I will do this sometimes to fit extra big sized cables in female connectors.
There are no Eidolic 4-pin XLR female models in existence (just the male version currently).
I saw this on aliexpress

Could be a good alternative

The old 4-pin XLRs look different from the new ones. Was there a design change? Was it just an aesthetic change or some sort of performance change?
