However, the Believer can offer no empirical evidence to confirm their beliefs. Ugly Side Of The Believer Gu's craftsmanship is what you are paying for - cosmetic and sonic. More on the sonic side of course but also for the hand made "honest yet premium" (honest and premium - tangibly and also sonically) cables! about the color of copper variant, i might prefer the orange tone of naked copper, but this moderately shiny light brown is ok. it's between the naked copper and the dark brown we are seeing lately. So the concept of break in is to improve the impact to the sound of the dielectric insulator, rather than the wires in the cable. There are several good reasons that could substantiate the Believers’ claims in being able to hear a difference between two cables, i.e.:

spc 8c (silver,eid)....................................................134/126/131/131 127/126/140/147 129/127/123/129 129/129/137/146 (spc)In my experience, if high-end cables make a difference, it is very, very slight. I likely don’t have the trained ears, or exotic enough equipment to be able to perceive significant sound changes due to cable replacement. Perhaps my biases just lead me to believe that. You can’t always trust what you hear. Sometimes, your sense of vision takes over, enabling us to maintain a coherent view of the world.”

All I can say is that I’m a serial modifier of things, so now I’m into higher end audio, I am turning my focus to improvements. I have had a few experiences with aftermarket cables and headphones that in some cases make me a skeptic and then also a believer. Without measurements to support the descriptions, fuel is added to the debate. Chapter 1: The Spectrum of Belief

Claimed Improvements in Expensive Cables

i'm in love with the splitter and chin slider (which is tight, it doesn't slide by its own). they are metallic, aluminum probably; the shape and text remind who and where they are made in, according with the minimalist design. The Lavricables brand was created in 2012 as a hobby by a group of passionate audiophiles. Dissatisfied with the high prices in the audio industry, this group decided to create their own cables. Hailing from Latvia, Lavricables stands out for its use of pure silver wire. Their range of products is remarkable, and they also offer limitless customization options. Their range includes headphone cables, speaker cables, USB cables, interconnects, and more. In this review, we take a closer look at the Master Line headphone upgrade cable from Lavricables. I do not judge how people spend their money. If spending on placebo makes someone happy, who am I to judge. If it is plastic sealed when you get it, it should remain plastic sealed. Some types of goods such as CIEMs and custom cables cannot be returned. So if you're looking for an inexpensive solution to cable length, the NewFantasia is an excellent and safe bet.

Please note that this article will focus primarily on analog headphone cables (and extension cables), rather than digital connections (such as USB or Lightning). With that said, wireless Bluetooth headphones will only be impacted when connected with an optional analog detachable cable. Claimed Improvements in Expensive Cables This was inaudible when listening to steady frequency tones, however had a greater significance when stereo listening. The proposed solution was fairly easy; use sufficiently thin conductors (18-24 AWG wire per strand). In addition, he noted that the dielectric insulator surrounding the wire conducts the majority of the electrical signal. The details and calculations were covered in depth by Stereophile in their “ The Essex Echo 1995: Electrical Signal Propagation & Cable Theory” article. Cable Break Inedit: after listening comparison of both, i can't find differences between them, even you get darker sound with silver (or spc) one. Headphone cables are most commonly made of strands of very thin braided/twisted copper wires, as it is more flexible, better resists damage due to twisting/vibration, and has essentially the same conductivity as a single strand conductor. occ 4c (copper,furt,MV).................................57/57/ bad/55..59/59/ bad/57..53/53/54/54..64/62/62/71..[36]
