Oyaide Cables


What are your thoughts about this Oyaide cable company? I been using XLO signature series for many years and wanted to try this company IC and speaker cables. I read a few post that people are mentioning how good these cables are for real down to earth prices. I'm in search of some cables that are on the warmer and richer in tone.

Since there is some interest in Oyaide, I'll share my thoughts on the various Oyaide cables I've tried. I'm in Singapore, and we have a local dealer that makes sourcing their cables easy.

Power Cords

PA23 - Thinner than the monstrous Tunami. Good highs but a bit lightweight sounding in the bass

Black Mamba V2 - Quite neutral and detailed. Super value for money. Not as heavy handed as the Tunami.

Tunami GPX - Warm tone. Very low noise floor and very powerful bass. Some may find the top-end a bit lacking 

Tunami GPX-V2 - Improvement over the original Tunami. This is more open sounding.


Interconnects

Tunami Terzo V2 - Detailed and super smooth and laidback.

AZ910 - Similar to the Terzo V2 but with more detail.


Digital Cable

DB/DR-510 - This is the FTVS-510 bulk 75 ohm pure silver core cable with Oyaide's BNC / RCA plug with pure silver center pins. These aren't bright sounding at all, but instead have a high detailed yet warm and full balance. 

Has anyone compared the Tunami GPX R V2 to Cardas Golden Reference or Golden Power?
Thanks
I would absolutely agree with @ericteh about the sound of Oyaide power cables.
I am a big fan of the Oyaide power distribution products. The Black Mamba V2 is one of the best values in 12awg power cables- and is neutral. Of course the US markup is way too much...next time you are in Tokyo stop by the Oyaide shop, such fun.

One key item from Oyaide that does not get much press is the P-004 UNPLATED Beryllium Copper plugs, and the R0 UNPLATED Beryllium Copper outlets. These were developed to have the most neutral presentation. I feel the palladium and platinum plated versions(P-004/R1) have a highlighting effect that may be good on tube gear, digital, and video, ymmv.

-Beryllium copper has a tensile strength 1.5 times that of phosphorus bronze. This allows for a strong grip of plug within outlet. 

I have built many power cables with Japanese parts including Oyaide, Nanotech Japan, Acrolink, and others. Oyaide and Acrolink are my favorite of the cables. 
Eric's Hi-Fi Blog is a good reference for people interested in Japanese power products:http://singaporehifi.blogspot.com/search/label/oyaide

I will use the Furutech FP-209 spades for large awg power cables, but after auditioning many Furutech products including their factory made power cables with NFC, and distribution boxes- I still prefer the Oyaide outlets, plugs, and cables. We carefully auditioned these items in a mastering studio and Oyaide was a clear winner for all.

-as always ymmv




Can vouch for Oyaide, incredible performance for the money.

Neo by Oyaide deserves a lot more attention, but its less known in the audiophile world. I prefer the AXIS-303 bulk cable over the Black Mamba V2 for my amp and DAC despite the lack of drain wire. YMMV ofc.
