![]() ![]() It's so good that I can safely say I'm done buying audio gear, really permanently done. I have now switched over to the much more forgiving Dan Clark Audio Vivo copper cable, and there's just one problem: this is the best sound I've ever heard in my life, by miles and miles. Even now, when I listened with the silver Opera cable, certain rare recordings were still harsh, and it just sounded wrong, unlike with the Aeon 2 Closed, where it only improved and clarified the sound, without making the A2C less forgiving/versatile. Now it sounds even smoother, less bright, and a bit bigger bass. The above impressions, where I thought it was like the Aeon 2, was before it was fully burned in. I may end up buying a Lazuli Reference, supposedly that's the best copper cable out there.Įdit: turns out, the Peacock needs more than just 100 hours of burn in, in my case it took 120. I do feel that the Peacock might be better suited to copper cables, like a Magnus (at least with Hugo 2). The detail, soundstage, and bass slam are all slightly better, and the treble is much smoother, but other than that, it's super familiar sounding, nothing weird about it. ![]() I gotta be honest, I'm shocked how similar this allegedly odd sounding headphone sounds to my Aeon 2 Closed. Trying out my new Sendy Peacock with my Opera cable, direct from Hugo 2. Val is a pleasure to deal with - great customer service and excellent advice when needed. ![]() I cannot imagine listening again without it.Īrctic is a confident recommendation from me. Compared to the OG Sus cable, which is a well-known terrible aesthetic but still decent sounding, the Magnus S offers a supremely smooth and non-fatiguing sound, bringing to the fore the Sus's near perfect stage and pinpoint imaging, and it offers this modest bump in SQ with no sacrifice to detail. The Magnus deftly removed edges I did not even know were present with the OG Susvara cable until last night. Listening to Fleetwood Mac, Rumours last night was a heavenly experience. ![]() I am currently on around 30 hours of burn-in and it is already sounding fantastic. I can easily just stare at it in wonder for prolongued periods, such is its beauty. As mentioned a number of times by others here, the workmanship is simply exemplary.
