Hi All, just have a question on Your experience with copper cables for VO. I have been using FAW noir hybrid cable but just have tried Verite's stock copper cable (the sleeved one with 6,35 jack). It is really good and i like it better than FAW. It seems smoother and more airy (?). Obviously it is all subjective, but it was quite surprising for me as FAW is a nice upgrade cable. It seems to me that copper upgrade cable is something i should look for.
I see people use the following copper upgrade cables: Zmf 2k/norne audio drausk/ viking wave cables ansuz.
I would be gratefull for sharing any views on how those cables compare to the zmf Verite stock cable or for any other reccomendations for copper cables. Maybe it does not make sense to upgrade the cable? The stock one seems really good, but i have had no chance to compare it to other copper cables.

I use the LQI Voda cable with my Verite (and Eikon and Autuer). Its constructed from ultra pure Ohno continuous cast copper. Its an outstanding match with the Verite imho. I prefer this cable by a large margin over the stock and upgrade ofc copper ZMF cables. I also prefer it to the ZMF Lektrik silver cable and a copper Hart Audio cable I have.
I also have a LQI Esprit cable that is made from silver plated copper. Its a great cable also and I actually prefer the Esprit with the Aeolus and Atticus since the silver plated copper has a little more sparkle in the highs. For the Verite, Eikon, and Autuer I prefer the slightly smoother highs that the all copper Voda provides (I also use a LQI Voda with the HD800 and it does a great job of taming the highs and giving it a fuller sound overall). They are both great cables and offer outstanding performance for the price. I feel no need to upgrade over either one of these cables.

No problem. The ZMF ofc cable I was referring to where the ones that are the next step up from stock not the ZMF 2K. I have not heard the ZMF 2K cable but I bet they are quite nice. I do enjoy the ZMF Lektrik S cable I have but I think both LQI cables are a step up over the Lektrik S in terms of sound quality. Sound is a personal thing though so ymmv. Regardless LQI cables offer great value for their price points. https://lqicables.com/

For all our cables we try to lean towards the thinnest possible wire with the most strands as it's what I personally feel like sounds best (lower resistance) The 2k is just kind of the opitomy of that with the 513 strands per wire and over 2000 in the cable.

I would love to try the 2k cable (particularly copper). Its definitely beautifully constructed. Maybe when I finally order my Atrium.......one day (still saving for it but it will happen! Lol!).
I have not heard the other cables being mentioned, but I have the 2k copper cable and it is a clear step up in sonics and aesthetics from the stock cable. I also have the silver lectrik cable which I use on the VO That one I like as well. The 2k is smoother and the lectrik adds a bit of zip
I prefer my 2K Copper cable on my Auteur over the OFC cable. Strangely enough, on my Meze Elite, I prefer the OFC cable over the 2K Copper. Synergy plays a part in this kind of thing as well as personal preferences.
