After bought Van Den Hull The second XLR, Furutech Lineflux XLR, Cardas Cygnus XLR....I have choose the Hijiri Million Kiwami XLR.
There is no doubt.
I am very surprised.

The voices are more 'human'.
The musical instruments are better defined.
Guitar are real...
On Daft Punk, the robot voices are clearly understandable without straining to understand what is being said.
It's a great cable, very musical.

I have better bass than my Cardas Cygnus.

Bass are more defined and better dynamic.

If you like accuracy sound, choose the Furutech...It's a neutral cable.
if you like the music plays in a room that is not only open to the rear, but also to the front. Instruments get a body and the vocal voice projected into the room seems to be palpable at once, whereby the size of the representation increases by two numbers compared to the smaller CARDAS Sky. You mus choose the CARDAS CLEAR Cygnus, this last plays warmer than a CLEAR Sky, but not as opulent as a CLEAR Reflection.

But if you want the mixed between Furutech Lineflux XLR and Cardas Cygnus XLR, you must choose Hijiri Million XLR...
This last is the mixed of the Furutech and Cards with more bass, more dynamic, more details and more natural voices and human sound even with a CD...

A great great cable...

Nice review. Only the phrase “even with a cd” means you had not heard a cd as you should. I had not either until I got the Furutech Project V1. Done properly, the cd still rules the digital kingdom. And in my set I do not have any inclination to go analogue either.

Yes...If I listened turntable, it is impossible to listen CD after....
Why ? The sound is not good...
With the Hijiri, I can listen CD after listen Vinyl...It isn't a great thing ?

Thanks for your suggestion.

Thanks for sharing!

Isn’t Hijiri way more expensive than Cardas Cygnus? A better Apple-to apples comparison would be Cardas Clear Reflections, or Clear, or Clear Beyond. Just a thought

Hello,

You're right.
I have Hijiri millions kiwami XLR 1,5 meter.
Price : 3500 EUR.

So the comparison must be with Cardas Clear...

But I have bought the Cardas Cygnus.
This is a better cable for sound in 3D.

Hijiri is better defined and has so much punch!

They have not the same sound.

So...
