    PW Audio Cables Discussion Thread

    Yes I have. Great pairing. At first I thought it highlighted the bass too much but after brain burn-in, it was just right!

    Well this question got to pull out both and a/b the two. On a less critical listen, I would say there is very little between the two especially in the treble. The mids on the Singularity may be slightly more forward by just a touch but it is by a hair's breadth. The bass is where perhaps...

    Might be and I definitely agree with you. However, I just slap on a screen protector and all good. Still in love with my Copper edition and enjoying it!

    Fir Audio Thread - Discussion and Impressions

    For me cable rolling had more of an impact then tips. I tried a number of cables including Aeneid, Chiron, OTL, Martini, 1950s and 1950s shielding. I ended up with code 23 which provided the best treble presentation for my preference. For tips I rolled SednaEarfit Xelastec and Azla DednaEarfit...

    Sure! Source is Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 connected via USB into Chord Hugo M Scaler connected via dual BNC cables into Chord Hugo TT2 connected balanced into McIntosh MHA200 through Effect Audio Chiron 8W into Noble Audio Viking Ragnar with Dekoni foam tips. It has taken a while to experiment to...

    Just finished listening to this album on this chain and I could not be happier and more engaged! I have finally fine-tuned and brained-in the sound and I am getting lost in the emotions! Happy Thursday (or Wednesday) as the case may be Coolers! May the music be with you!

    It might actually look cooler to face your entire system backwards so that the cables are showing up in the front instead!

    +1. PW First Times Shielding no slouch either and I did a/b the two and could not discern a difference!

    I love the 23 paired with Xe6 but shudder at the ergo everytime I use it!

    Agreed. My battery does not hold a charge anymore and I have to leave it plugged in to be able to listen to music. Shame!

    The Hugo M Scaler. It took what I loved in the TT2 and made it just better. I can't stop listening to it so that has provided the best value for me! Keen to hear your impressions! That's a lovely BT speaker! I was going to say that @HiFiHawaii808 will be there and so will others. But I see...

    Congratulations on starting this thread Eyal! Jim always talks about you and I feel I already know you in some way! Lucky you! I had 15 pages! In the grand scheme, this is entry level but I love how it looks and how it sounds!

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    I did not notice this. The Ragnar are so technically gifted that even if foams had that character, it seems not to affect the Ragnar. Plus I think Dekoni Foams are different from other foams in that they are less foamy (if that makes sense). Also, these foams have the added advantage of...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    After hearing the Viking Damascus and comparing them to the Viking Ragnar, I wondering if I could get the Ragnar somewhere close to what I heard on the Viking Damascus (i.e. the sweet treble as opposed the bright treble), I began to tip roll again. Initially I was settled on the MandarinEs...
