I try to be as honest and open as possible when I try new/different stuff out.
initially, this post was about some Chord Cobra 3 I bought for £15. I haven't tried Chord Co stuff myself before, so I thought it was about time I did. Genuinely like the Cobras a lot, which got me thinking, can my kit sound any better? is the cobra a sweet spot? what about more modern designs? which led me to VDH, I like their efforts to be ecological in manufacture, so I thought I'd try those too. its not a lot of outlay, the Cobras will be returned as the seller didn't disclose some info about the cables, but I will definitely watch for some more.
I will post about my findings, but I'm not out there to convince anyone anything, I will just give my thoughts.
