Xinhs 8 strand graphene on the way. My wife had to speak directly to the maker, the 8 strand isn't available as standard here in China (which is odd....)
Very lucky to have such a supportive and understanding missus!!

Can you do an impression compare to the stock cable after receiving it. Cos I'm very interested to see the difference in this graphene cable

For those who wish to tame the hash on this iem.
Can try these tips
Final Audio Type E
BGVP A07 Eartips
Spinfit CP360
Radius Deeps Mount

Personally I found out that hard silicone tips works well with MK2.

I've chosen the cp360 over the rest till to it's does not change the sound signature of the iem too much.

Interesting that you find something harsh on Mest. I am quite sensitive to freble but i found Mest's treble 2nd best thing after its soundstage. Its quite resolving but does not choke mids which is the case on alot of other resolving iems.

I found MEST a bit harsh when I first got it but now very much the opposite! I don't know if it was me getting used to it or burn-in etc.

I liked this thread better when it used to be about MEST. Isn't there a dedicated thread somewhere to discuss headphone cables?

You are in the wrong thread buddy! This is a cables and tips thread...

Hey folks going to CanJam SoCal!

I will have a universal MK2 with me for these how alongside my custom.

This unit is kindly provided by UM and Musicteck and will be cleaned and de-sanitized with every demo session.

If you would like to try it, please PM me and I would be happy to set something up with you during the weekend.

I dont have the MEST mkii, but I see you have the M3X in your signature. I had one and loved it so much I sold it off for the M6 Pro 21 - it's a beast. It added so much depth to the note weight, widened out the stage and brings authority across the spectrum. If its in your reach, it's an outstanding DAP and night and day compared to the M3X which I really loved and consider repuraching for its batter life and form factor.

I use the Hiby R5 Saber. One of the main reason I like it is because of the size. It's very small and portable so I can easily carry it from room to room within my home.

Also, it's got plenty of power. Over 1W into 16ohms. Add on to that dual flagship DACs, an opa 1642 lpf, and a great IPS screen.

Worth noting you should purchase an SD card as the Hiby has a small 16GB on internal storage. I purchased a 256GB and it's more than enough.

I highly recommend it.
