Since early last year, after seeking out a lightweight DAP and associated IEM upgrade I found it necessary to obtain a better cable. I’d thought, based on other review’s, that combining the Campfire Clara and Eletech Euclid would do nicely. However it seemed that for my daily 3+ mile walks, I’d run into a few issues. Not only was I having problems keeping the Clara’s in my ear canals but the sound, though otherwise excellent, was a bit tilted at the upper end of the spectrum. And the VERSA connector wasn’t staying connected. After reaching out to the always ready support of the Bloom team, it was suggested I give the Eletech Raphael a try. Once received I immediately noticed how light and flexible it is. Actually measured it to be about half the weight of the Euclid. I could now get back to trying medium sized tips of both silicone and hybrids I had been using. The much lighter weight of the Raphael now meant that the tips were no longer being pulled out fro my ears as I moved about. So now I’m really pleased with the more balanced sonics, a better compliment to the tips that now properly seal, without any concern as I walked my trail. And the non-VERSA makes for a solid connection. Very pleased with the Raphael.
I love the sound of this cable!
Was skeptical on the improvement if any I would get but pairing this with my Thieaudio Valhalla made everything cleaner sounding and the cable quality is incredible. Also much lighter and more flexible than the stock cable which has helped with ear fatigue from the iems. Can't go wrong with this cable!
Eletech Raphael | Copper/Gold Upgrade Cable for IEMs
I have dipped my toe into the iem game the last few years and found myself ingulfed into the hobby. Eletech quickly came into my radar as a no nonsense cable company spawning from effect audio. I have purchased a Raphael for my Noble zkublsi Khan and it is a match made in heaven. If you don't believe in cables and sound changes at the very least the feel of this cable is very premium. The sound is excellent. I feel like the mids are natural. Highs are tamed and sparkly with the Piezo super tweeter. Bass is thumpy and very articulate. I couldn't ask for more from a cable sub 1k. I cannot afford the more expensive Eletech options... but if I could I would get them in a heartbeat.
