Know before you buy
The Cleopatra II is engineered to provide a more natural, analog-like sound signature. It specifically improves low-mid performance and clarity, making it an ideal pairing for modern multi-hybrid IEMs that might otherwise sound too aggressive.
The Versatility version features the ConX and TermX interchangeable systems, allowing you to swap connectors and plugs to fit various IEMs and sources. The Performance version is fixed with a high-quality Pentaconn 4.4mm termination, specifically tuned to offer a more polished midrange.
No, the Cleopatra II is not compatible with Sennheiser IEMs. Please ensure your specific IEM model uses standard MMCX or 2-Pin connectors before purchasing the Versatility version.
The EA UltraFlexi insulation is designed to be soft and pliable, which significantly reduces microphonics and makes the cable easy to coil without tangling. It provides a comfortable fit that stays out of your way during extended listening sessions.
The Cleopatra II uses premium UP-OCC Silver Litz wire. This material is chosen for its excellent conductivity and ability to deliver a clean, detailed signal, which contributes to the cable's signature clarity.
