I like shiny things, I sure think it's purdy 'n then some :heart_eyes:

Me too! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Why does everyone want to make things more of a challenge for me :sweat: lol? Have you ever tried tying your shoe laces without use of your thumbs I know I can woohooo? giggle

Mind you easy is never as much fun or satisfying for anyone woohoo... Crazy folk have no sense of reason but 2.5mm BAL been suggested before but I have no use for that termination. Mind you I've never not taken a challenge or lost or a dare rofl, how bout I meet you half way between 2.5mm-4.4mm and do a slim-line small 3.5mm BAL termination seeing as I have one in my kit..

Only catch is cable is slightly larger than the plug over-all, the math doesn't work out but .......hahaha... ....but wait...........YES!

Thank goodness for shoe horns 'n crazy folks rofl :upside_down:

In everything there is a punchline. I'm trying to blow the drivers of He6se V2 to smetterings here with the behemoth vintage Kenwood KA-3300D. This is one of my speaker amps. I fail in my mission because the drivers didn't explode or fly across the room.

There's yer problem.
You're connected to the proper headphone jack. Plug those suckers into the speaker taps… fire in the hole!

I didn't show you what happen when I plug in the speaker taps cable. The house is still standing but the roof's gone. Workmen coming today for a new roof.

So after 4 hours of toying with Susvara, I came to the conclusion that a speaker amp is desirable but not necessary to hit sonic perfection with Susvara. Some dedicated headphone amps can and will drive it just as well, such as my Odyssey.

For my ears, Susvara needs a tube amp with gutsy power delivery and then some to spare. :relaxed: I have not heard Eva Cassidy sing with so much emotion and feelings. It's equally at home with Metallica and Led Zeppelin.

Those forky-looking things on the one end are supposed to go your speakers, not into the AC outlet. Now you know. Sorry about your roof. 🤣🤣

I'm slow yes, I know and told you as such.... I said it takes me days to do a cable and you lot didn't make it any easier adding challenges j/k, but makes for more fun stories to share/tell.

Though I'm old 'n a lil broken/bent :yum: it's done now so time to enjoy My pretty, My precious :heart_eyes: :hugging::metal: . Need to give hands/fingers a rest for a bit anyways, I just get excited and gives me something to do/feel useful....

(info 4 any interested : 63 strand/s per single 18awg core x 8 = 504 strands silver plated copper Litz... Gold/Rhodium plated copper terminations 'n prolly my best work yet, that's as tight as they come from me giggle... Doubt I could top it anyways YMMV :kiss:) :yum:

Chilling out trying the cable tonight... Have a great Day/Night where-ever you are.. Stay safe everyone, you and yours all :thumbsup:
