Hey Christain and the Plussound folks, may I ask what is meant by "variable gold content for finer tuning" in the description of the T-metal wires on your website? Thanks.

Hello! The latest T-Metal wire consists of 50% gold plated copper and 50% silver + gold, so the amount of gold in each is different.

"The Prism is Plussound’s mid-tier earphone, featuring two of their proprietary balanced armature drivers setup in a low/high configuration. It’s a very special sounding earphone that has some really intriguing characteristics that I rarely hear from any earphone at any price. It’s interesting to see how the properties of Plussound’s fabulous cable augment the Prism’s sound without characterising it and it’s great to see that the Prism’s themselves are transparent enough to take advantage of that. It was definitely interesting to listen to an earphone that includes a custom cable from factory as the Prisms sound is greatly influenced by the effects I typically expect when installing such a cable. Most notably, the Prism is super clean and separated with a dark background, easily the most unique aspect of this earphone’s sound." - Ryan Soo

Hey Christian and the PS folks,

After having a few cables custom built for me by friends and cable affectionados, I've come to the conclusion that the solder used plays a much larger part in the final sound quality than many may have ever realized (maybe affect the sound even more than plugs and connectors).

I have quite a few Plussound cables with me (and have lived with even more), every one of those have served me great (kudos to you guys), but still I have always wondered, what kind of solder (and from where) Plussound used?

Thx!

Thanks for the support! If you email us, we can recommend a few good solder choices that you could use.

More important is you guys are using one of those "good solder choices" in your cables - it's a piece of info few cable brands care to disclose so I suppose that may be confidential stuff (tho can't quite get how that could possibly be lol)

Anyway thanks for the reply.
