I just wanted to chime in and thank Trevor for the best customer service I've ever encountered in my audio experience.  I owned the Norse Norn series cables and had it replaced with the Skuld series.  I absolutely love the new Skuld cable.  It is very light and easy to manage.  Sloppy phone pictures but here it is.  
 

 
Hey, your welcome guys, thanks for sharing your pics and thoughts.  :)

I too will soon be adding pics and impressions to this thread as I just put in an order for the following for my recently purchased Hifiman HE-6.
Reign 12 (equiv. 4x21awg, 12-wire) Cryo Litz upocc Silver(Cu) Tri Multi-Conductor HE headphone cable 10 Foot length
options: 
- 4-pin XLR (HD-Series)
- Wenge splitter (engraved)
- Black jacket
Reign 12 (equiv. 4x21awg, 12-wire) Cryo Litz upocc Silver(Cu) Tri Multi-Conductor adapter 2 foot addition
options: 
- 4-pin XLR female (HD-Series) to Furutech 1/4"
Reign 12 (equiv. 4x21awg, 12-wire) Cryo Litz upocc Silver(Cu) Tri Multi-Conductor adapter 2 foot addition
options:

Looking forward to the improvement in sound these should bring, over the stock cables, to an already incredible sound.  Still enjoying the transition from being a traditional stereo speaker lover to lover of headphones.

i don´t know if the silver cable is best solution for the HE-6

The Reign 12 (equiv. 4x21awg, 12-wire) Cryo Litz upocc Silver(Cu) is not a fully silver wire, rather silver coated copper.  Should be a interesting mix and with Norse Audio`s trade-in/replacement warranty of 60 days more than enough time for me to determine whether it works.  I`ve heard that the silver is not the best option for the HE-6 but have a feeling this combination should not pose the same problems.

@Trevor..
 
Looks like you got a lot of work ahead of you..   
 
More to come..  I still haven't placed my HE-6 order yet.  
 
Want to see if the Reign cable is a fit for the HE-6 or not..

Any 30 or 60 day demo cables for previous customers always have a lowered priority over any paid for cables.  So it can definitely take a while sometimes to get demos out. 
But am working hard to get some out for those waiting.

It's ok ,Trevor..demo cable is not needed-thank you.
Good luck with the reign series.

Preproman,
After more thought,and,a few e-mails to Trevor,..,I've decided to soon get.. one of the reign series cables.
It would be appreciated for you to give us your impressions,with the HE-6.
I would be usingthe MJ/GNG setup.
 
Thanks
Mike

That will be a while.  Just because I get my HFMs hard wired.  I'll be getting the Reign cable for the LCD-3s first.. It should be here by Wednesday next week.


Prepro I see you have the he500 or is it 6 that are hardwired, are you going to have the LCD-3s hardwired as well?

Don't have the 6s hardwired yet.  It has to be the right cable for those..  
 
No the LCDs or the Senns don't have hardwires..
 
I 'll do hardwires on:
 
Denons  (Cable on the way for the D5000)
HFMs (not the HE-6 yet)
Audio-Technicas
AKGs
T1s (not yet)
 
I think I'm going to get 2 pair of T50RPs hardwired and send then to Dan and Luis so they can do their thing..
