Hi,

If you like warmer sound you have to go with copper cable. You have the Black widow copper cryoed at Toxic cable.

Has anyone ever put HD700s through Toxic Cables?  Just curious.

Hi folks. This is a slightly off-topic question, although it will probably influence my next cable order. I am currently using the stock balanced cable on my LCD-3s into my Oppo HA-1. However, I have a number of other amps and outputs that have standard TRS jacks. I don't particularly want to be swapping cables and interfering with the mini-plugs on my headphones all the time. So is having a balanced connection worth the hassle? Should I let it influence my next headphone amp purchase (spare room, not much money being spent)? Obviously, once I get a nice Toxic cable for my LCD-3s I will not want to swap back to stock.

@mcnicks I mean, couldn't you just get an adapter from 4 pin to standard 1/4 jack and use that whenever you need to instead of swapping cables? I am not sure I understood the question properly, but this seems logical to me. 
Also, just wanted to say one big "nice" to your LCD3 and HA-1 pairing. I can imagine it must be one hell of a setup :)

  Hey guys,
 
I'm quite new here. Just placed the order of  SW22 for my T1 gen2. Can't wait for it.
 
p.s. How does the hydra 18 for T1? Will it be too bright? too good? Or SW22 is perfect enough?

 
I think you made the right decision with that, I would have said the Hydra would be too bright. Not not heard the T1v2 only the v1 though and I know they sorted the treble out a bit, but I would say the SW22 is still a safe bet :)

Thanks for the quick reply, Rowethren!
 
Will update my impression once I receive the SW22.
 
Cheers :D

Just prepare for a long wait, but when it arrives I am sure you will love it :)

How long do you normally have to wait for a reply to an email? I got an initial reply then I replied with another email with  a couple of points I wanted clarification on. This was 8 days ago.
