Just curious, have you are your 007 stock or have you sealed the bass port/done anything else to them? I'm finding myself curious about electrostatics these days I guess...

My other question is about the Silver poison- has anyone compared one with gold to one with pure silver? I am looking for maximum accuracy as my headphones see some studio monitoring use...

Thanks :)

My 007MK2 is stock. No modding. People mod their mk2s to try to get it to sound like the mk1. But since I also have the MK1, I don't need to do so.

Oh u mean u wanna test cables out before u buy? That i think will be difficult..they are in the UK..and i dont know if they have a seller in russia and no cable brand do test listening as far i know off...but if u read many of the stories (and my review mentioned in my signature) u can be sure they sound good for the price they cost....u wont be dissapointed..i am on my 4th cable and kiats has so many i lost count..and i can go on and on about customers being deliriously happy with their cables....and if u dont like the sound for some strange reason u can easily sell it to someone else if u want it.
Maybe u can tell us what ur looking for ..what soundsignature ur looking after? Every cable sounds different.

Have fun chosing :wink:

Heheh! Paulo is being kind. I have a few of Frank's cables. And, yes, excellent stuff that Frank puts out. And always enjoyable. :)

On a slightly different track: for those of you who have the Hifiman He1000 and wish that it wasn't so laid back, I've tried it with the SW22 balanced and it transforms the HE1000! Quicker, more details and yet with that nice weight in the notes that the SW22 brings. Of course my SW22 was done with LCD mini XLR connectors but with mini XLR to 2.5mm adapters which frank kindly did for me. :)

I know cables don't make that much of a difference, but my new (# 3) Silver Widow CIEM cable make one hell of a not so much of a difference

Listening to my Custom 1964 Ears V8 - and these sound so well rounded - clear and clean with a low end that pummels - while keeping mids and treble frequencies separate. A big bag of credit goes to the CIEM, but the Widow shows more not so much of a difference than a number of my other cables.
 
It's still early on the West Coast and no, I haven't started drinking.

Hey All,
 
Shopping for a cable for my HE-560s. I have the Silver Widow on my LCD3s and love it. Read a few impressions here through the many pages that maybe the Copper Venom seems to be a good choice for the HiFiMan Lineup? Any thoughts or advice I'd appreciate it.

Yeah I'm gonna keep them nothing in their price range really that sounds as good or fits as comfortably in my opinion. Also I think they are good contrasting headphone to my lcd3s where I felt my LCDXs were not. Too similar so I sent them back.

Right now I just have the lcd3s, srh840s, and some IEMs. The cable made a big difference for me on the 3s so I think the right cable will be good for the 560s
