Just chilling with friends and got a chance to cable roll the Nostalgia Guinevere, short impressions:

>Nostalgia Pendragon
Biggest jump is swapping the Nostalgia Pendragon stock cable to Guinevere. The Pendragon’s midbass is tamed whilst retaining its BCD bass texture. Cleaner mids which makes the Pendragon a better generalist but it loses its mud-fi classic kino tuning. I don’t think the treble quality has changed but due to the tamer low-end, the treble may sound more extended.

>Guinevere vs Sovereign Symphony 8W
SS8W is better. Better treble definition. The Guin is warmer and “slower” sounding.

>Guinevere vs Mira MK2
Mira MK2 still better. Mira is more detailed and cleaner-sounding.

>Toxic Cable Taipan (sorry no pic)
Dark horse of the lineup. Taipan beats both the Guinevere and Mira MK2. Taipan has very smooth sounding treble unlike the Mira. But it also manages to retain its warmth without sounding muddy like the Guinevere.

Also the Sovereign Symphony 8W is temporarily mine since Subtonic is kinda enuf to loan it to me, so intense A/B with the stock cable of Storm soon.
