Yes, and TRUTH and HONESTY are some of the most important things,

Well, their stock cable is $15-$20 for 3 meters so it can't be a great quality one. I amazing how both the HD 650 and HD 600 sound good with such a cable. Changing for a better cable gives a hudge improvment, and my humble opinion is that the Moon Gold works great with the HD650 and is still...

I've just ordered a T2 OCC silver litz from Ted (with a bunch a adaptors). He built my order in one week. What I've bought is described as OCC silver, not SPC.

Hi Nick, I'm in France and from all I know, the only way to buy a danacable Lazuli is to order it from the US. Or find a used on which is Mission : Impossible :triportsad:

Great. I might be wrong becaise it's late here but I haven't seen any focal terminaison available. So I'd still favor Ted even if I think Norme is worth consideration and is in my short list.

Thanx and I FULLY AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT THE COMBINATION. I HAPPY YOU WROTE IT. I WOULD HAD THE AMP, THE SOUCE AND THE HEARS.

I haven't bought yet but got in touch with Ted who seems to be very serious. Why cable was used (OCC XN, Silver) ?

Thanx :beerchug:

'Time out' was one of my "killer records" when I wrote reviews, specialy the timpani on "Take Five" Could you please let me now which balanced cable ? Thanx

Yep, months, sorry. Anyway, I haven't made a lot of errors as all my posts are deleted "off topic even when I answer a question" and don't know why off topic.Speaking of head amps and DACs and how they would or not match with can is right in the topic. Read quickly this one quickly asking to be...

That' why I had it upograded by audicom. Regarding DAC's cheaps, some may like better one brand, but they are worth only a few bucks and what really matters, IMHO, is the way they are implemented and most off all our taste (our hears first). Also, chips possibility double every 12-18 years...

You're right, have just checked mo OPPO and found I've lost the antenna. What made me change is that it is a DAC + Head Amp. When I bought my direcstream combo, the new DAC was ways ahead so I had to improve the head amp. Now I have to find an antenna for a discontinued Oppo :triportsad:

No longer : I upgraded (IMHO) the Burson 2+ to the OPPO HA-1 AUDIOCOM MODIFIED (I agree the upgrade is only for Hi-Rez and that the Burson 2+ is superior to the standard model of the HA-1). Then upgraded the HA-1 modified to a Moon 430HA. Choose it because it doen't includes a DAC ( why would I...

It's OK but the Burson is one step beyond the Utopia so you'll lose part of it's potential

You're 100% right. But the price in France is very high : $7015. And there is one thing I don't like : The complete version in France is over 10K. So even with their "discount", the Abyss Phi costs $9500 minimum in France to get the max quality :triportsad:

Hi, Great info. Could yo let us know roughky how long you've spent listening to each of the other cables, which equipment source you've used and if you focused on a style of music and more of your listening impressions ans ranking. Thanx Best

Which provocative way ? Now being considered at Troll or the clown I've already forgotten the pseudo is an honor. BTW, who wrote "discussing personal audio shouldn't get personal" He was trolling :L3000: Do really believe your insults will make me like the utopia ? We are not in North Korea...

Thanx for the page. I wish I'd have 2 hands and your skills. Very hard to get a new utopia in France for 3500€ (price displayed is 3999€). 3500€ = $4100. At $3000, I would consider it is as a much better deal. I think it has a lot of potential but not easy the fong the good matches.

And the same you (quoting the name of an old movie) guy, honestly. Not entirely agree on (I've put in perspective my opinion in a previous post) is really not a big deal.

If hat's the way you fell, you're right. BTW, I would have loved to see your PMx2 silver cable on your site but the page is empty. Could you please PM me the direct link ? Why don't we exchange you LCD-4 against my Utopia ? Of course, it is also an overpriced headphone (that's why I avent bought...

But I've never because I disagree with a post about an equipment. It was not inflammatory, just a few words to describe what I considere the utopia to be considering its price. Have the amendments of the US constitution been canceled ? There is absolutely no difference, Just a semantics basic...

Thanx for the advice and the great way you show how to behave calling me Troll. :floatsmile:

I've put a like on your post for the "Everyone is entitled to their own opinion" My opinion tooks into consideration the retail price wich is around 3 times the one off the HD800's. After having listened to a SACD on me speakers, I tried the Utopia with stock cable. While on the speaker the...

That typical of some people (unfortunately quite a few in France) : They strart agressively : "In my opinion these points are at best gross misrepresentations and at worst plainly wrong.." They give their opinion and that's right even if I disagree specially on the cable (Utupia sheer OFC...

How lucky you are to have managed to sold them. I tried in France as I really dislike them (no bass, no purity in the trebble, not well balanced), priced twice there are worth but even at 1/3 of the retail price, nobody was really interested as people like much better the Abyss or even the...
