Caring for Your Cable

Coil it loosely in large loops and keep it in the included leather pouch when you’re on the move.

Unplug by holding the connector, not the cable, and avoid sharp bends right at the plugs.

Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, and keep it away from solvents and alcohol-based cleaners.

Every cable has a 1-year warranty. If anything goes wrong, contact us and we’ll take care of it.

    Null Audio Aoraki Mll iem cable

    This is the second cable I have purchased from Null Audio, the first was a massive improvement over the O/E that was supplied with the iem's, the Aoraki is a game changer. In real terms I've only had a limited amount of listening time with the new cable compared to 3 years with the previous one, the difference is incredible, it's more musical, the sound staging sounds wider than before, it's another level, I'm delighted with the purchase and cannot wait to enjoy it more.

    Superb Quality Right From the Start

    I ordered the Symphonym - Aoraki MKII Platinum Core Tri-Hybrid Headphone/IEM Cable and realized that I mistakenly chose MMCX instead of IE300/600/900 connectors. A quick message back and forth with support fixed this and my cable was assembled, shipped and arrived quickly. I was impressed immediately by the packaging and care that Null Audio took in shipping this item. The cable has had about 15 hours of break-in time, and I am using a generic Motorola Android phone and a Questyle M15 DAC dongle for much of my listening. My impression so far is that the Symphonym - Aoraki MKII Platinum Core Tri-Hybrid Cable is a significant upgrade from the stock Pentaconn 4.4mm cable supplied by Sennheiser for the IE900 IEMs. This new cable opens up the highs and brings air, sparkle and shimmer around transients, a sense of depth and heighth to the soundstage--which has widened and now places some instruments and vocals outside my head. The bass, which was not an issue before, is now just as deep and tight but with a dramatic increase in pace and speed. Spending over a thousand US dollars for this cable should make anyone pause. But I am very happy with my purchase as well as Null Audio's excellent support. Ultimately, what matters is the music. My new Symponym Aoraki Mk II has made my music sound more alive, purposeful and less veiled. Imaging, musicality and tempo are all much more resolved and enjoyable. I highly recommend the Symphonym - Aoraki MKII Platinum Core Tri-Hybrid Headphone/IEM Cable to anyone whose music needs a more revealing presentation.

    Expand your sound stage

    Going from Thera MKIII to Aoraki MKII has been pure bliss. Bass has more body and attacks are clearer, midrange is detailed (vocal music really shine through this cable). Higher frequencies are even better IMHO, they're here but never too bright; not an ounce of sibilance on a piccolo trumpet solo by Maurice André. Sound stage & instruments separation also get better, new details emerged from tracks I thought I knew inside out. Up until recently, I thought cables were a passive piece of equipment, and people able to hear variations between them were gifted with bionic ears (or worse, falling for deceptive sales pitch); well it's time to disagree with my former self :) This cable deserves its higher price tag; had I had more cash flow the herringbone braiding upgrade would have been on my order !
