I agree with frank..let the customers decide...it happens to much that something is perfect sccording to manufacturer and when neutral customers tries it its only so so.... :xf_eek:

So, I've heard oddly bad things about the stock HE-500 cable, and though I've heard the contrasting opinions from pro and anti cable gurus, I'm not sure what to think. I'm going to bet that the HE-500 is going to blow everything else I have out of the water, but do cables really make a measurable difference on sound quality and microphonics? Since microphonics seems to be the speaking point on the stock cables, I was wondering if it had to do with the silver or the connectors. I'm on a tight budget, so I probably won't be getting custom cables any time soon, but I'm wondering what the difference between copper and silver is, from an audio perspective. I don't like the thought of putting a signal through like four different types of metal before it gets to my ears, but I might just be mis-informed. Anyone care to give an overview on what the different types of cable are supposed to do with the sound?

Thanks, the new version look like more for headphone. Guess will still prefer the current one for iems, maybe the new version is great for Roxanne with 4 wire configuration.

Can any one tell me how long the Silver Poison takes to break in.? My past experience with silver power cords and interconnects leads me to think its several months.
