The Ultimate Cable

A powered-up version of the 2009 Best Audio Award winner Aug-Line Horus

Description
A special stranded wire structure that can only be made by hand is used to make traffic lights with different materials, thicknesses, and lengths for each band inside the tightly shielded interior. The total amount of precious metals in the conductor part is enough to make 30~40 rings of general jewelry. The ultimate cable, which takes even a seasoned technician several days to produce a 1m pair, is incomparably thicker than Augline's interconnected cable series, yet despite its appearance, it is surprisingly flexible and easy to handle. Although it is not very realistic, it is not affected by the outside so much that it has almost no effect on the sound quality even if it is longer than 6 meters, and the transmission is excellent. The biggest feature of the Horus NEO is the significant enhancement of the shielding relationship, the reproducibility of weak sounds, the signal-to-noise ratio, and the resolution.

Compared to the original Horus, the Horus NEO has even better resolution and improved signal-to-noise ratio. The sense of depth and outlook is improved, and the presence of the vocals is even greater than that of Horus. The wide range remains the same, but the high frequencies are supple and smooth. Every sound image is much more focused and detailed, the backgrounds are quieter, and the vocals are better. And yet, it is natural and lacks emphasis.

Many people had the impression that Horus had a strong vocal presence and power, but NEO has an even greater vocal presence, and the main vocal feels like a step forward, so it is especially recommended for those who are mainly vocals.
The length can be increased or decreased by 30 cm.
In addition to the noise absorption effect, you can also choose a model with a built-in terminator that further increases transparency and power.


Review
When I listened to it by connecting it between the CD and the preamp to compare it with the old Horus, the NEO became much more focused and precise in all sound images such as live guitar, voice, strings, and bass. The background is quieter, and the voice is better. Also, when the feel is natural and there is no emphasis.

Gloria Estefan Greatest Hits SACD (Stereo Edition)
The tone is close to the Nordost TYR2. The temperature feeling is the same as TYR2 or slightly higher. Slightly warm. The lowest range sinks. SUNKEN BY ARGENTO AUDIO FMR. The extension of the high frequency range is also sufficient. The speed and sharpness are good. It feels like the sound is popping. The sense of rhythm has also been improved, and there is a sense of dynamism. The number of notes is higher than that of TYR2, but the S/N is clearly better than TYR2 and better than FMR. The amount of information and resolution are better than those of TYR2. The left and right sides are about the same as TYR2. The front and rear feeling is clearly better, and the three-dimensional effect is improved.
Minako Kawae letters
The amount of information is one step higher than TYR2. You will also be able to understand the strings of the piano. The sound image is more compact than that of the TYR2. There is also a sense of substance. As expected, it is stable. In addition to the high signal-to-noise ratio, in addition to the balance between spatial expression and sound image expression, the high dynamism is a point worth mentioning (^^)/
Horus NEO (without Terminator)
The S/N is dropping, and the resolution, amount of information, spatial expression, etc. are dragged down. Although it is one step lower than the +α wT, it has enough performance (to fight Indra), and the Aug-Line's quirks, or rather, sparkle and power, are sharp, so this is a fun feeling.
Horus NEO with Terminator
Sounds pretty similar to +α with Terminator. Terminator's influence seems to be significant. However, the amount of information and resolution are reduced, the number of sounds is small, and the sense of front and back is also reduced. I think it's good to listen to it alone, but the +α Terminator is too good, so if you listen to it immediately after, it will be (^^;) a painful evaluation
