What music or songs do use to test your ear pc

Tells me how serious one is!!
I use 4 seasons


(Not just 1 but the whole series of 4 seasons)

The bass and treble must mimic the stage /symphonic Live in my ears….. many ear pc failed


I listen to Vivaldi too, but not the entire 4 seasons bah.. the audio shops will kill me if I did that.

I need to allocate my time wisely when auditioning. :ROFLMAO:

Some classical tracks I listen to
Concerto In F Minor for Violin, String Orchestra and Continuo, Op. 8, No. 4, RV 297, "L'inverno" (Winter). Allegro non molto
Concerto In G Minor for Violin, String Orchestra and Continuo, Op. 8, No. 2, RV 315, "L'estate" (Summer). Presto, Tempo impetuoso d'estate
Vivaldi: Concerto in A Minor, RV 356 - III. Presto
Nocturne No. 20 In C Sharp Minor, Op. Posth. (Arr. N. Milstein)

I listen to jpop, rock, and ballad too.

I think the most popular genres, such as english and Korean pop, don't really take advantage of sound equipment, and it doesn't matter if one have better equipment. Last time when I was younger, I used to listen to more of those so that I could tell :/.

How does it compare to the stock cables?

I would like to think they sounded very very slightly brighter but I am probably imagining things.

The stock Focal cable was heavy and had alot of microphonics when rubbed against clothes when on the go, these aftermarket cables are much better.

The stock Sennheiser was abit too long even for my home listening corner so the aftermarket cable was nice length.

Do you have the link to these cables? I'm interested to get one for myself.

I think the 16 should refer to the no. of cores, which means they use 16 wires to braid
