My Pandora 3.5mm TRS came with the gold and CF jack.

I do hope you didn't get swindled.

Thanks for that. I have traced the origin of the cable back to the original owner, and have contacted him over PM. Awaiting his reply. Hopefully this will be sorted out.
 
This is Pandora SPC. Is it from your Solar?

 
Thanks Sammy. I sold the cable to ezekiel77. I bought the cable from another seller who had advertised the cable as OCC MK2. And I sold the cable to ezekiel under the same model name.

'Ezekiel77' got the Galaxy and the cable from '@EagleWings', who got it from '@jtiis' who got it from me.
 
 
This is the cable I sold it with:
 


I sold it fully believing that it was the OCC MK2. From where I got hold of it is hard for me to say as I was going through a lot of cables at that time and try as I may, I can't for the life of me figure out what it came bundled with. I strongly suspect it might have been the RTI1, but not sure.
 
I now have the below cable with me, along with the 'Dark Knight' and the cable Sammy send the demo Galaxy V2 with. Which means along the line either I have been sold a cable as OCC MK2 which wasn't. Or I have sold a OCC MK2 as SPC Pandora to someone.
 

 

 
 
 
Either way, the buck stops with me and my confused head. I might not have looked at it too carefully as I remember the Pandora SPC, OCC and the OCC MK2 all being the same price at RSD. There was absolutely no intention to missell/swindle and if there is any way I can rectify this, @ezekiel77, I am fully happy to comply.
 
My sincerest Apologies for any confusion, guys.

Quite a kerfuffle!

  I've gotta say man, with the color, splitter and memory wire - that has to be one mean ass filter to make it look like a Pandora :)
 

 

 
I don't trust official product photos, but I think your side-by-side comparo put that to rest. And I thought it was my phone camera! I was expecting a neutralish sig based on your cable review for Galaxy, but was surprised at the bass amount! Probably the Pandora's doing. I'll do some cable-rolling when I have the time.

Hi boss! I returned my Pandora to you when I bought the RSD Silver Litz for my Solar. This cable was bundled together with the used Galaxy I bought.

I recommend Galaxy with copper wizard 4 braid silver Jack mk2.
Amazing! Beautiful! Sweet! Details!
Anyway Galaxy with RSD Silver get super treble. That what I like too.

Really curious how a pure silver cable will alter the sound. My preferences have changed a bit since getting the HD800 so I'd like Galaxy to be as airy and trebly as possible. Will give the RSD Silver Litz a go with this later.
The desire for treble is biologically normal. By the time you reach your 25th birthday you will lose 10% of the upper frequencies and thats not taking in account city and work enviroment noises and listening to music on a daily basis. Welcome to oldman hood.

Nearly 10 years past my 25th mate! Haha.
 
Just a slight update, Galaxy pairing with RSD Silver Litz is brighter and airier, with "super treble"! A near-perfect combo if not for a slight lack of sweetness in the vocals. Pandora presents slightly more intimate vocals which I prefer, but man, that Silver Litz treble... woo!

Both you and @EagleWings are standup guys, I don't think anybody suspects foul play there. Now let's get @ezekiel77 a proper cable!

Quite a daring combo hehe, you weren't lying when you said you wanted max treble. 
 
Btw, in this case the NT6pro should be on top of your list.

With all this OCC talk I hooked it up to Zeus to try again. With the Galaxy I prefer the Golden or 2.98, but the pairing with Zeus - it might be the best pairing I heard so far. This is the most tonally accurate and natural sounding I've heard Zeus so far. The Golden makes Zeus very lively as it has a brighter upper midrange, but while exciting the coloration is not completely natural. 
 
The Zeus - OCC mk 2 pairing even distracted me from my NT6pro honeymoon phase, took it to work instead that is saying a lot!

if nt6(pro) is as good to be put in the same phrase/comparison with zeus  , they i guess that nt6(pro) is one hell of a ciem (told you that nt6 kicks ass

)
