Know before you buy
The UP-OCC pure silver construction typically offers a more transparent, detailed sound profile. You will likely notice improved high-frequency extension, a wider soundstage, and better instrument separation.
Despite the complex eight-strand construction, the cable remains quite manageable. The EA UltraFlexi jacket is specifically designed to prevent tangling and ensure the cable drapes comfortably without feeling rigid.
The Kevlar-infused core provides significant structural reinforcement to the internal Litz strands. This design protects the delicate silver conductors from mechanical stress and stretching, ensuring the cable maintains its performance over time.
Yes, the Cleopatra OCTA is available with 3.5mm single-ended, 2.5mm balanced, or 4.4mm balanced terminations. You should select the option that matches the output port on your primary digital audio player or amplifier.
The cable is available in standard MMCX and 2-pin (recessed) connector configurations. Please verify which connector type your specific pair of in-ear monitors requires before selecting your order.
The multi-size braiding optimizes the electrical properties of the cable while improving ergonomics. By varying the strand sizes, Effect Audio achieves a balance between signal purity and a flexible, lightweight feel that is comfortable for long listening sessions.
