Hello from Hapa Audio: Breathe C Cable tour


Hey there Agon. I wanted to introduce myself and my company. Many of you may know me better as 'Pez' from Audiocircle. I did RMAF show coverage for years. I started a forum at Audiocircle last year and have been enjoying my time there making cabling. One of the thing I enjoy doing is sending out my products on tour. 


To date, my most popular product tour was for my Breathe C cable. Breathe C is incredibly neutral sounding cable with great dynamics and detail. https//www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=174850.0 Folks at AC really enjoyed them, take a look at the link to get some impressions.


Here are some thoughts from a few tour members from Audiocircle:

"If you are looking for a reference quality cable... I would highly recommend that you give Hapa Audio Breathe C or their other versions a try" -Wig


"I simply was not expecting what I heard. I was blown away." -Jackmonster


"It was like rediscovering my entire collection again." -nlitworld


I wanted to see if the folks here would be interested in doing a tour of Breathe C. I will be giving away one pair of interconnects to one of the participants of the tour and another set to a randomly selected member who posts to this thread.


If you are interested in joining the tour click on this link: https://forms.clickup.com/f/80txj-210/C5Q6S87IAC6538TBD9 I will be sending out a 1 meter and 1.5 meter set of the Breathe C cables for folks to evaluate in their system. Depending on how many folks sign up, I might split the tour between east coast and west coast. I'm looking forward to this tour! Thank you all for your interest!

HAPA, I am always interested in trying out some new cables. Very interesting to read about under and over damping of cables, and the design and use of " Angel Hair " Litz cables. My understanding is that most of the better designed cables use Litz configurations. Good luck with your endeavors. MrD.
Mrdecibel,
Indeed, one of the fundamental things that are NOT being discussed about cabling is proper vibration damping. It's tricky to simultaneously provide ideal dielectric conditions without overdamping. With Breathe C I tried a multitude of wiring ideas before arriving at the final solution. I utilized the thinnest teflon dielectric I could find combined with the highest quality ultra thin litz. On top of that I wanted to mitigate strand interaction, thus the low strand count per bundle. This solution is simultaneously very effective and much lower cost than some of my other solutions which make Breathe C the best cost/performance product in my arsenal. I'm looking forward to showing this community what this company is made of!

Sounds like a cool tour and cable idea ! Look forward to hearing more about them and the company.
