Greetings all,

Looking for opinions on what's the best upgrade cable for my new Audeze LCD-3s.

I'm already using a Revelations Audio Labs 10 foot extension cord. It's pure silver and I plan on keeping it and just upgrading the 10 foot Audeze factory cord.

I am partial to silver in the right set-up.

Thanks...

I have the q audio cable and use it with the LCD 2. It sounds very good.

  I tried a number of cables 2 years ago when i got my LCD-2s, including Moon's Silver dragon. Although it sounded pretty good especially compared to the stock cable, the magic I expected from phones was just not there even after buying a new Eddie Current ZDT until I bought a cable from Artisan Silver in the UK. Their kevlar coated silver HP cable really brings the LCD to life, especially in additional detail (said to be the only flaw in the LCD2) and high-frequency glare reduction. The Kevlar jacket is a bit stiffer than some other makes, but it's easy to get used to and it makes the cable nearly indestructible. The exchange rate with the UK means it will cost about
  $600 US, but shipping is free. Shipping on their web site advises 4-6 weeks but that's just for Europe. They will ship from North Carolina as they are actually manufactured by Drew.
  Everything is going to the dogs

Q audio and Moon audio make some fantastic cables for the lcd3. Q audio is copper litz design and Moon has the copper and recommends the silver cable for the lcd3 both excellent cables and highly recommended.

Check the offerings by ALO Audio and Moon Audio. I have briefly demo'd offerings by each with my LCD-3s. When I upgrade this year, it will be a cable from one of these companies.

Is a 10 ft factory Audeze cord an upgrade?

I've been looking for an upgrade more my LCD-2's but decided to build them instead.

Probably VH-Audio OCC silver braided...or Mundorf Silver/Gold.
