Look forward to what IEM paring you will end up with the Cleo II
The four I have are Phonix, Traillii, LX and Trio. I was able to get a listen already with Trio and LX at Canjam, but it will be good to try all four IEMs out in a more quiet setting.

The Cleopatra II has now had 50 hours of burn in. It’s a silver cable and I’m hearing some nice clean and clear sound. One interesting thing is the bass. It seems to really accentuate the bottom end which I’m loving! More burn in to go now and see if anything else changes.

Yes, you are correct, the Cleo 2 would actually give a fuller bass, unlike a typical silver cable.

Despite the clarity, treble extension and smoothness, the bass and mids is the surprises from the Cleo II and Octa, enjoy the new standard of Silver cable:)

I personally really enjoy the punchy bass and engaging vocal on Cleo II, huge step up from the Cleo I.

The absolutely gorgeous Ares S arrived complete with ConX.

I paired the Ares S with my IMR Ace.
Same Here. The EDP ACE ships with a high quality OFC Cable but swapping over to the Ares S retained all the hallmark bass impact, speed and detail of the IMR house sound, but it tamed the overly forward forward vocals and the rest of the mid range while retaining the crispness of the upper registers. My Ares S has a new permanent home! I think I need another one for what comes next - The IMR Titan! Even the EA logo matches perfectly with the IMR word mark!

The EffeCt Audio Line up starts with the Ares S as the entry level. After extensive listening, we can all agree that pairing and synergy is a crucial aspect when chooing a cable for IEMs. Stretching your budget for higher end stuff without any synergy will not always yield better results. Take the Ares S for an smooth and energetic presentation of your music and not leave out any details. It is the safe pick all rounder that suits basically any pairing if you aim for a relaxing and smooth listening experience.

Hey guys! We've just introduced 2 curated bespoke pairings with Chiron 4W - 1 with Horus and the other 1 with Caliburn. Check out our page for more information! 🙌🏽

Will it be a good pairing with Erlkonig?
Absolutely! Cleopatra II will be able to improve it's resolution while providing for a surprisingly smooth analog sound.

Great! I am in search of a cable that can tighten the Erlkonig's bass, as I think the bass of setting #2 is a little bit too thick in some genre!

Just arrived. EA’s new project, Cleopatra II.


Awesome looking toward to seeing the reviews on it. Hopefully I will receive my prototype Cleopatra ii soon. Curious to see how well it sounds with mest mkii and the indigo.

Mine has nearly had 100hrs of burn in and so I’m going to start getting some listening time in soon.
