My oriolus's cable is broken. I am bjying materials to fix it (connection issue in the plug).

Meanwhile, could anyone recommend some cable to pair with oriolus?

 
Isn't the PW Audio No.5 regarded as "the" cable for Oriolus?
 
I prefer stock though. To me the PW lifts the mids while sacrificing a bit of air and soundstage. To each their own.

Is the stock cable you have the one in the Chinese version?

Mine is Chinese version. The pw is international/Japanese version? This is my memory, could be wrong.

Yup, the PW cable comes with the Japanese version. You can buy it separately at the link below, or contact PW Audio's Facebook page.

SGD229 or about USD165, not a bad price.

I'll buy soon a new pair of oriolus, and I have the TWau Reference GOLD PLATED SILVER IEM cable for the moment, do you think it's worth taking the PwAudio n°5 cable for the oriolus ? Did someone test the whisplash cable with its Oriolus?

Thanks for the information. Will come to this one if my fixing doesn't work out.

is there a big difference between 4 and 8 wired cable?

I have a v2 coming my way tomorrow. Excited to post impressions and comparisons to my u12!

Awesome. Hope you like them. Oriolus is a keeper for me.

How would you compare to u12?

How would you compare to u12?

 
I'll try to compare soon, but presentation-wise, Oriolus is like watching a concert from the first row, whereas A12 is like watching a 3D movie.

Haven't heard the TWau, but I read it gives a sort of rich, liquid kind of colouration. On paper it sounds like a good match. And I prefer stock over the PW No.5.

Christian from PlusSound once explained via pm, 4-wire is for portability, while 8-wire would affect sound more. I've never owned an 8-braid however.

cool, finally congrats new/used? where did you get them?

 

[pfurey89]

Got them used here.
 
Guys, these are SO good.
 
The best of both worlds. DD bass with BA speed and clarity. Soundstage is on par with U12 ADEL w/ open MAM. These are real sleepers!
