I've been using Cabledyne Reference Silver cables: USB, XLR digital and XLR analog interconnects for a few years now.

Okay the Silver Spore4 seems pretty popular here now 

 I may be interested in a copper Spore4 if someone has one left after upgrading to a Silver Spore4.

I know he has and prefer the DHC spore 4 Fusion HP cables, but thought he may still use the Cardas Clear IC. Let’s see what he says.

 
Correction, "i know he *had*...DHC spore 4 Fusion"
 
I've bought his fusions off him after he upgraded to the Silver !
 
I've been using a Cerius Liquid Ceramic interconnect before, the spore fusion is much as described by Fririce, the audio is more textured and detailed to my ears. A very full-bodied sounding interconnect, but doesnt sound bloated or laid back. very quick and nimble and detailed, but just adds that extra texture to the instruments. Detail retrieval was also improved over my ceramic and dimazio interconnects, as i could hear breaths etc in tracks i could not previously make out.
 
I've also taken his headphone cable for the Abyss off him, Spore 4 Fusion as well, and a CAD USB cable.
The rest of cables i'll test when the rest of my gear gets hear. From the improvements in the interconnects thus far, i know it will all sound great when final rig is assembled.

Sounds like a smart move. Are your observations of DHC Spore Fusion in respect of Abyss or another rig? My Silver Spore USB, IC and HP cables are still not ready but all good things etc...

 

[matthewhypolite]

I don't have the Abyss just yet.
 
I tested the cables on Denon D7000, (My LCD3 has gone back to audeze, wish I could test it on that).

Lol I guess I have lost track on his present gears and preference.

 

Nevertheless congratulation! I have a DHC Chaperone3 ACSS cable, so I know that Peter can make some really nice cables. The Chaperone3 is a hybrid with both copper and silver wires and it has no added warmth, brightness or harshness. Maybe I should send it to him for re-termination.

The pictures of your personal organ really need to be here Ralf. Very cool...

Off Topic !

Nothing can beat the real stuff !

In 1987 I bought in England my own Theatre Pipe Organ. It's the ex. REGAL Cinema Putney/London COMPTON  3/ 7  ( three Manual and seven ranks of pipes ) plus Meleotone and Solo Cello build in 1937.

Dismantling ans Installation I have done toegether with a friend and my Father. 

After building a Studio/Hall for the installation, the Organ is playing as a Studio-Organ in my private Location.

The 5 hp Rockingham OrganBlower produce endless Wind Power and the Organ which was build former for a 2300 Seat Cinema now gives his sound in a Studio with a seating capacity ot 60 People. 

When the shutters open, heavy Pipe Organ Sound of 700 hunderts pipes will reach your ears !

Hi Folks,

please don't understand me wrong, I would never spend so much money for a single High End equipment. I'am now totally happy with my new  hearing equipment : Abyss - Egosita ISIS  so that I decided to sell all my bulky highend Equipment.  This will be the MARTION Orgon four Way active Hornspeakersystem and the Brakemeier APOLYT Turntable with his 50kg airbearing Platter.

I am now in a age that I and my wife decided to live smaller and simpler. We are memebers of an AIRSTREAM community and we love to have our free Time in our Airstream Trailer exploring Europe and the country side. 
Nothing can beats FREE Time, and so my look to my personal future life will be to work less and have more free time. You can have as much money you can, you can buy anything but not Free Time to live.

Wow. To all of that.


On a side note, if you google "Egosita ISIS" like I just did, you will get porn. Those are two different products he's referring to there - the Viva Egoista 845 and the Rega Isis CD player. His rig is not Abyss / naked girl... Just wanted to clear that up

 too funny!

 

[FiftyKilo]

LOL !  Abyss and naked girl sounds nice, but will be to complicated with my wife.
 
I am happy that my wife tolerate my  Pipe Organ and High-End Hobby so NO naked Girl 
 
Just to make clear, the EGOISTA get's his signals from a "REGA Reference ISIS Valve CD Player"  and this Combo together with the Abyss is heaven.
 
I have to thank Joe for his research and building skills that he brought the ABYSS to the Headphone market, this headphone is so near to the original sound that it is amazing.

has someone also heard the  EGOISTA 845 with the VIVA NUMERICO  CD Player/Dac ?  
 
The Numerico is not tube based but... it is made by VIVA to synergize well with the EGOISTA !

Have any of our Melbourneites had a chance to demo the premium JPS Abyss cables?

 

[Revogamer]

Hasn't arrived yet so that would be a no!

Thought the Melbourne store had it?
