Significant improvements in information content, resolution, and signal-to-noise ratio

A joint cable that can add the essence of "Horus", the highest peak of the Aug-line

Description

It is a product developed with the idea of breaking the common sense of audio, where increasing the number of points of contact is considered taboo.
The sound differs depending on whether the head (pre-side) or tail (power side) of the basic parent cable is attached. Connect it to your current cable to improve the sound quality. The idea is to use the "end effect" of the cable to achieve a sound quality that is close to that of the high-end cable Horus, and the effect is outstanding with the Isis joint.
A joint cable using the conductor of "Horus", which won the 2009 Audio Excellence Award from Audio Accessory magazine.
Despite the fact that it is only 20 cm added, the number of sounds that can be heard increases, the amount of information and resolution are improved, the signal-to-noise ratio is greatly improved, and the sense of reality is definitely improved. It's more effective than you can imagine!


Until now, the idea of connecting cables has problems such as increasing the number of contacts, and has been considered a negative idea, but if you think about it, the cables between the duck → pre-→ power are joints that connect different devices. The bottom line is the sound quality, but you'll probably be surprised. I think it's especially good for those who use long balanced cables or those who use a lot of cables in multi.
Review
On the night of my arrival, I was filled with anticipation, and when I connected it to the power amplifier side and made a sound, it was different from before connection.
1. The sound spreads from side to side.
2. You can better see the position of the instrument
3. The contours of the sound are firm.
In my opinion, the sound spreads to the left and right even though the high frequency part has become clearer, but it is not noisy and clear, and it is not too soft or too hard, and the density of the sound is not too thin, and the tone is exquisite with a taste that is not too dark. The low frequency range is also tighter than before, but I can clearly feel that the volume is coming out. To be honest, I'm sorry, but at first, I just put a cable of about 20 cm in between, and I didn't expect the sound to be so much to my liking. I thought the sound would change, but I was also a little worried that the sound might have a strong habit. When I think about it now, I was unfounded, but on the contrary, the cable of this length may have happened to be just the right seasoning for me. At this point, it's quite seasoned to my liking, so I can't let it go.

[Impressions of the sound]
In a word, it's like putting a pre in it. I used an attenuator for a while. I've brought that attenuator to the store (because I like a simple system) and had it confront Puri, and it's similar to the impression I had at the time.
As for the disadvantages, I feel that the overall sharpness is slightly reduced, the silence of the background is slightly reduced, and the amount of information is slightly reduced.
The advantages are that the sound becomes thicker and more substantial, the sound field expands, it becomes easier to hear, and the overall balance is improved due to a sense of stability.
Conclusion
I don't want to use too many accessories (I don't like to be stuck in the signal path), and it's not a cheap purchase, so I was very hesitant but decided to buy it. I decided to buy it because it is a product that covers the weaknesses of our current situation well. If you put it in a system that has become tighter and slender like my home, the side effects will be minimal and I think it will cover well. I feel that it is suitable for systems that use AET and Mexel. However, it may not fit the original plump and relaxed system. I don't know if it's dyed in Org color, but I wonder if it's called Org color because various people's impressions are similar. To me, the tone itself may seem a little dark, but it sounds natural and I don't feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable.

Bravo! Horus Joint Cable
The cable that was sent to us early was carefully packed and in a case. When I opened it, that? Where. I knew it was long, but it was really short! That's my first impression. It fits straight inside the box. Listen to it calmly so that you don't have excessive expectations. From the moment the sound came out, eh! After listening to it, the S/N rises and you will be amazed at the high resolution. It seems as if the range has also been expanded one dimension. Moreover, while conveying this much spatial information, it is expressed with a solid skeleton instead of being thin at the top and bottom. The cymbals are flying around, the bass and bass drums are completely separated and have a good view, and the guitar with effects is super realistic! The sound quality is also very natural, not in the dimension of soft or hard. It's as if the recording scene has appeared in front of you. "This is it!" I involuntarily cried out in my heart. After changing to the current pre-equipped DAC, it sounded dry and boring because it didn't come out well, but even though I just added a Horus joint cable to the end, this expressiveness! I feel that the performance of the equipment has jumped many times over. However, the signal has not changed at all, but only this cute cable, so why? Why? Why? It's a little monster! Right. This is exactly how it feels when you pass it through an ultra-high-end preamp. After listening to it, I found myself looking through the included catalog from beginning to end. The comment sounded like a commercial, but I was able to come across an exciting product for the first time in a long time. JBL sound revival. In our house, it seems to be a dish that we can't let go of.

amp: McIntosh C2300, MC501 x2
speaker: B&W 802D
I connected the Horus joint cable to the Acrolink 7N-D5000 XLR connecting the DS and C2300. I used it on the preamp side. When I picked up the Horus joint cable for the first time, I felt that it was shorter than I expected. I wondered if this would make a big difference in the sound, and when I made the sound, my worries disappeared in a few seconds. The treble is transparent and stretches very well. It was noticeable with female vocals and acoustic guitar. In the mid and low frequencies, each sound becomes thicker, and it sounds as if the volume and sound pressure have increased. The sound is very clear, but the edges are not lumpy. The change in the sound field is also remarkable, and it expands in a very three-dimensional manner, which is comfortable. I thought I couldn't go back to the state without joint cables.
