Any item returned must be complete with all accessories, hardware, manuals, or instructions, and in the same "new" condition as when it was when shipped to you. Please send us photos or videos of it. The theory behind cryogenic treatment is that when the temperature is set below -300 F, molecular changes would occur in metals. This would then increase the conductivity of the cable. The ‘grain structure’ of the molecules becomes permanently tighter and more uniform, reportedly reducing noise and improving electron flow. Ignoring an individual’s claim that they can hear a change in sound, simply because the listener is unable to provide scientific proof or an easy-to-digest explanation, may be short-sighted. The explanation may be missing, but the experience can still be valid. From Disgruntled Soundguy We’ve covered what may not be real, so let’s move on to the facts. What’s inside headphone cables? Chapter 4: Anatomy of a Headphone Cable Cable anatomy image from Pro Sound Web this list pretends to be a compendium of recent cables, which provide good value (affordable decent quality). most are chinese (chi-cables).
On the other side, you have a group of passionate folks who would swear that they are able to hear a difference in sound reproduction between cables. The Believer often exhibits the following traits: Have you ever read an audio review that described improvements in ways such as “better micro-details”, “has no skin effect” or that the sound is “smoothly textured”? Much of the cable debate revolves around these sorts of tenuous descriptions of sound, which by their very nature, are extremely difficult to prove or disprove. Music improvement visualisation advertisement from Burson Audio Headphone cable discussions must also include the value of aesthetics. Beautiful cables are like jewellery. Even if they don’t meaningfully impact the sound, they can certainly increase user satisfaction and enjoyment of their headphones. A couple of audio illusions are making the rounds on social media. Do you hear Yanny or Laurel? How about Brainstorm or Green Needle? Governing Law - This contract shall be governed and construed per the laws of the People's Republic of China.

FAQs How can I Request a Warranty replacement or repair?Disclaimer by writer Adnan Firoze: This is not an advertisement, but it is definitely a recommendation. Nothing was handed to me for free. I bought these cables with my money and on top of that, I don't even know Gu - who makes these cables but I know that he is probably the best IEM cable maker I have tried - and believe me, I have tried a lot including more expensive cables from Moon Audio, Effect Audio, and ALO Audio. If waiting hundreds of hours for a cable’s dielectric to become properly ready to transmit audio seems a bit far-fetched, the process of cryogenically treating cables may be too much for you. It typically consists of applying liquid nitrogen vapor to chill the cable to about -300 degrees Fahrenheit. This is done over many hours (or days) and the cable is slowly allowed to return to room temperature. Photomicrographs of Materials Before and After Cryogenic Treatment from Pearl Audio tpc 16c (silver,oyde,M)...........................................221/232..218/236..221/221..232/235 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
Without measurements to support the descriptions, fuel is added to the debate. Chapter 1: The Spectrum of Belief Like most people who are into audiophile equipment, I’ve heard the “golden” vs “lead” ear arguments many times. After over 50 years of trying various wires I know I can hear a difference in how wires conduct signals. I am also convinced there are people who do not hear differences. Why? the goal is trying to minimize that degradation. interference from outside can degrade the signal. twisting the strands into the cores, and also the cores, prevents some kind of interference. braided screens and other sleeves prevent other kind of interference, but this adds weight and stiffness, and it's not so important for earphones wearing. at least, this is what i've understood after some reading sessions.It impacts how everyone perceives music and why two individuals can listen to the exact same equipment and report different findings. This could also apply to how a single individual listening at a different time or location can experience different results. There is no dishonesty or deception involved, it truly is “ all in the mind“. Unconscious belief is enough for the listener to hear or to not hear a difference. Audio Illusions: Yanny or Laurel a good idea is to keep proportion, or to pass when you know that the improvement is not worth it compared to the cost. With GuCraftsman's cable with the UE900s, I heard a staging improvement along with tighter bass, fuller mid-bass and the best part - a much clearer presentation all across the spectrum with supreme instrument separation. But it is a very neutral sound - nothing over emphasized (but of course its job is to retain the character of your IEM without making any noise - and it does it better than any that I have heard before). Still, you may be surprised what an upgraded IEM cable can do. Again, note that this was my first try with Gu's cables and so it was the cheapest too. But I believe it made small yet noticeable upgrade in the sound.
Great Deal
