Is it too soon for a recommended Toxic cable for the Focal Utopia? No doubt Frank can produce one, but would it cost as much as the headphones...

Anything wrong with the supplied cable? Besides weighing a ton!

As it's impossible to read this entire thread (!) - it's time to show some cable love to my HD800's (which are loving the Phonitor 2 amp).
 
Is there a general consensus of the 'best' cable for HD800?

Well i cant speak for the 800 but my 800S are loving the copper venom.  Worth every penny. And i really prefer it to a different copper cable i bought recently from another boutique manufacturer but its all down to taste. Natural sounding with plenty of detail.  It just seduces.

Thanks, I'm thinking that copper would suit the HD800 more so than silver. Hmmm :¬)

hi,
 
you can also go for the non-silvery sounding SW22. a silverbased cable that doesnt sound like your regular silver based cable.
some use the SW22 (8wire/4 wire) on their HD800 and love it.
 
am sure some of our fellow toxicanians can confirm on this and pitch in. i myself use a custom 8wire SW22 on my Code-X, also a more brighter/neutral sounding headphone and i love it!
 
i also had a custom 8wire copper Venom myself and trust me if i say: with that cable you wont be disapointed also on your HD800!
 
good luck with your search

Just seen the 18AWG cable! Looks a bit sexy.

Frank - do you make adaptors for the headphone end? 

 

[Uncle Monty]

Frank - are you able to give a very rough estimate of current delivery times?
 
I realise you are very busy and I'm not trying to push you, just excited about getting the cable.
 
Ordered end of October (#997) - not expecting them until 2017 - just wondered if it would likely be Jan, Feb or later?

I think it is around 12 weeks at the moment, could be wrong though.

Hello,eyeryone,I want to buy sw24 or sw22 for my noble K10ua.I have a question here,sw22 is suitable for outdoor using?I have Hugo but I often use mobilephone to drive it.
Which one is more suitable to me?

 

[longbowbbs]

SW22 is kinda big for in ear portable use IMHO. I love the SW25 with my K10's and JH16's.

 

[RPB65]

Personally, I have the SW24 and sometimes it bugs me. A truly great cable, sounds superb, looks superb, however I must admit to having my eye on the Linum SuperBax if they ever release it to the public! LOL. It seems to be one of those talked about cables they advertise yet show no sign of releasing. Although they did promise some information before Christmas.
