Satin Audio Feedback & Discussion Thread

Do you think it would be a step up from a stock SPC? I’m thinking specifically the 64 Audio premier SPC that is supplied with the IEMs.

Also, the Medusa II looks good. I see that you can also get it in 6 or 8 wires.

Yes. This cable is a a big step up, from my Noble Audio stock spc cable. Not even close to being in the same leagues.

So, I have had some time now and properly burned in my Hyperion 8 wire, and this cable is incredible. I have it paired with my Noble Savant II, which is a slightly dark, but a well balanced iem, and this pairing is perfection. Using the Hyperion 8 wire with the Savant II, the bass got a bit more deeper and tighter, the mids got cleaner and airier, and the highs are extended yet smooth. The things that really jump out, are the power and texture of the bass, and the increase in sound stage all the way around. Compared to the stock cable, things got fuller, wider, and smoother. Compared to my Norne Therium 4 wire (pure silver litz), the extension up top and air in the mids is just as good, but smoother, and the bass with the Hyperion 8 wire is stronger. I am so happy with this cable, that I purchased the exact same one with mmcx, for my Campfire Lyra II. The Lyra II is another dark and somewhat balanced iem, and I can't wait to see what the Hyperion 8 wire does with the bass and soundstage on that iem.

Nice review. I am tempted to get this for the tia Trio. As that is quite a warm IEM I would hope it would pair similar to your Savant II.

I dream of owning the Tia Trio some day, and from what I have read about the Trio, I bet it would pair really well with the Hyperion 8 wire.

I went into the store with the intent of buying an Eros II cable costing £259, and I left the store having purchased the 64 Audio tia Trio. I’m still a bit hazy on what happened in the middle . I’m really enjoying the Trio though and happy with the purchase. I’m just trying to find a cable to match it with now; hence me haunting many of the cable threads.

That's funny! I wish I had somewhere to demo stuff like that in Dallas, TX, but there is nothing. On the other hand, if I did have a place to demo, I am sure my bank account would be empty.

How many hours did you burn the cable in for?

I don't have a magic number, but I have well over 100 hours on my cable at the moment.

100 hrs does seem to be a magic number.

 

[Wes S]

100 hrs does seem to be a magic number.

Funny, but true. . .same goes for tubes and headphones. I really don't know why, but that does seem to be the magic number. I think it really only takes around 50 hours for most audio stuff, but I am thinking that if you get to 100 hours, then there is no question on whether it is burned in or not.

Satin just sent me a photo of my 2nd Hyperion 8 wire. This one has mmcx so I can use it with my Campfire Lyra II, and I am thinking and hoping this pairing is going to be as amazing as with my Noble Savant II. Both iems have a warm sound sig, and a good spc cable seems to work well with them. Check out this beautiful looking cable!

That looks really nice.

Thanks! If you could see it person, this wire is the prettiest I have encountered.

Well, if you want to post it to me so that I can...errr...look at it then I will be happy to help you out.
