Thinking to get one
Or Yatono LE ... ?
I'm very happy with it. Listen to it most days. But important to note, it's a heavy cable so for portable use bear that in mind.
The Yatono I don't know.
Not for me. But I remain still when using it - it's also necessary to adjust the wooden splitter so it's more or less under your chin for a snug fit.
Well still need to make my decision
STR-7 Ref or Yamoto LE ... ?
I don't think you can wrong; they're all very well made and sound great, just depends on your preference and budget. I also had the ASUHA Ref.2, which is another fine cable.

I don't want them to add any additional brightness in the Treble range
If they add something in the Bass region it works for me
Now since they are copper I don't think the Treble region will be an issue
Drop Naoki Okada a line; he can offer feedback/advice on tuning. But in my experience, all the Brise cables tend to be quite neutral and expand/enhance what's already there rather than radically modifying the IEM/headphone (although the copper based TOTORI cable worked wonders for slightly taming the peaky WP900).
I did in the meantime sent Naoki-san an email
But it will be buy & try
Now I'm feeling confident it will work out

Agree with @Nostoi . Brise makes excellent cables. I have both the Yatono Ultimate and the Yatono Ultimate 8wire. No regrets at all!
Well just paid my STR-7 Ref
That's what Naoki told me to get vs Yatono-LE
Let's see how I like it
How are the Yatono Ultimate / 4 and 8 wire ?
As I understood a stiffer cable ?
Or at least for IEM

Congrats! I must confess that I have not tried the other cables in the stable. I should try one day. Let me consult my resident Brise expert @Sabre2
Hmmm… the 8 wire is, as you can imagine, bulkier but I would not say that either is terribly stiff. Especially when you have used PWA cables. The reason is simple: the shielding is very well done and close fitting. The material used by Brise also lends itself to it getting softer with time and use. At least that is my perspective.

For headphones wouldn't bother me

I have both fitted with FitEar connectors. So , yes, IEMS.
The 8 wire version is perhaps not something you’d wear and walk about. Naoki-san advises that it brings benefits but is more limited because of the added weight etc. For me I tend not to walk around with IEMs in my ears. I listen while sitting down generally, whether it be at home, in an airport lounge or on a flight.
If I recall correctly, it is also advised that the IEMs for use with the 8 wire should be customs. My guess is a more secure fit.
