About this deal

pure silver wire. (TPU insulatedLayer 0.05mm*50 + shield 0.05mm*45) * 4 cores. equivalent to 24.5awg when using shield layer. shiny white, great look.

they inspire me more confidence. artisans use to love their work, and they put effort and care on their creations. that's why i decided to try Gu's cables, and titled this review as "enthusiast craftsman". A thread on Head-fi.org entitled Testing Audiophile Claims and Myths does an excellent job of collecting and discussing 50 blind audio tests. Ugly Side Of The Skeptic The listener may not have discarded the Skeptic’s point of view, but believes current testing methodology is not enough to explain the audible differences As far as silver wiring goes- if you are going to use precious metals, I'd rather see them used as something to make the 'phones look fancy rather than hide the premium material inside insulation. It makes no difference to actual sound performance as long as your headphone cables are under a few hundred feet long- silver is only 6% more conductive than copper so unless you have a kilometer of cable, you aren't going to find enough difference in conductivity to justify the cost. Silver also oxidizes MUCH faster and more readily than copper, and that can cause a bunch of problems too. I'd rather see the money that would be spent on silver wire go into more premium materials for the earcups, earpads, etc. 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.”

a good idea is to keep proportion, or to pass when you know that the improvement is not worth it compared to the cost. While the Skeptic claims to be objective, many of the discussions are far from impartial, neutral, or dispassionate. The Believer

once again, an artisan doesn't disappoint me. massively produced cables made by operators, equivalent to this, cost the same, and the work is not as fine as in this cable. Lavricables has divided its cables into 4 different categories. The first and most budget-oriented one is called Reference Line. Reference Line is made of solid-core silver and has a purity rating of 5N. This line-up utilizes Teflon for RFI and EMI rejection. I have been using the cable for a couple of weeks and IMHO it is excellent in every way. It is similar to the "ddhifi" which gives me pause for concern in your application but it is 400mA.We have to remember that we do not know everything. Hearing perception may be beyond current measurement tools. The probability may be low, but it is possible that we might not even be measuring the right things. Approaching the discussion with patience, rather than with scorn and polarized conclusions, benefits both sides of the debate.
