You are right

Bee honey is healthy
The other honey is poison too :D


Pak Rudi, your bee honey is too good to ignore. Guess what, cut 0.5m off my crystal bridge this morning and fabricated a few ICs with different combinations.

Doing it on single core though is already good but not good enough to my liking. When I double it, the sound is just incredible when it is used between DAP and Wagnus Valvola. Crystal cable is really excellent for clarity across the spectrum, vocal is equally impressive.

Finally a cable that I have not been using for several years, pairs very well with my Neotech Copper and Pure silver ICs and of course the excellent Wagnus.

Laptop>Pure single core silver usb>ME>Crystal Cable 6xCore>Wagnus preamp Valvola>Neotech copper 18AWG>Wagnus amp>Neotech pure silver 24AWG>Evo pad> Jena Lads ultra wires> VE6.

Listening at 11 o' clock with Lep Zepelin tracks- so bloody addictive.

IMHO, Wagnus is not only good on SQ, it is also a very versatile amp which allows you to play around/customize your ICs for the optimal output per your music genres.

I guess the chase for better sound is never ending.

I'm contemplating buying a set of Crystal Cable Dreamline Plus jumper cables in order to re-terminate them into mini to mini cables.

For better flexibilty on how you want to re-terminate or fabricate, you probably need 2 sets of jumper cables for 3 ICs for our new Wagnus set up. IMO, the Crystal Cable pairs really good with Wagnus. Got to thanks Rudi for his poison tonic.

Did you re-terminate the cables yourself?

Yes, I did all my cables. On current just own 2 after market cables, Toxic Virus and stage93 silver.

Finally ordering the Alpha Valvola & Pad Evoluzione tomorrow, so excited. :D

You have the right for being so and you are likely to lose some sleep over the expansive soundstage and fidelity sound- That bloody preamp make a lot of different to my ears even without the Evo pad. Your NT6 have finally found her mate. I demoed the 2 model a year back and was impressed.

Spend sometime earlier to satisfy my curiosity and fabricated a coaxial cable just to test out whether without 75ohms matters. Using Furutech U-OFC FC-62 coz the silver core type insulation is to fat for my RCA and mono. Hooked it to my b-DAC using my DX90, and it works pretty good. Didn't hear any distortion which my stock cable did.

Overall soundstage expanded further- full bloodied. Impressive low and drumming- blissful IMO. Wagnus can really scale.

Ahh ok, I ordered directly from Haru Wagnus so it has to ship from Japan.
Probably going to make the order for the 30cm Crystal Cable Dreamline Plus Jumper cable tonight. (for making into 3 mini to mini cables)
