Review- The Periodic Audio Beryllium
Periodic have managed to make a fun and dynamic sounding IEM, without throwing off the tonal balance and overall sound signature.

The Fun with V6 Vivid op-amps packs a punch, with most headphones you won’t need to crank the volume up much to get good listening levels.
The Clear have become one of my recent favourites, purely because they offer such a clear and precise sound without fatigue.
iFi have managed to pack a lot into a small device, and it works in perfect harmony.
The HD820 really nail the balanced sound signature with convincing tonality and outstanding resolution.
Burson know how to make an excellent sounding and well built DAC/Amp, the Play is really an excellent piece of kit for the price.
Shipibo wood cups, aluminium gimbals, rodblocks and leather headbands are all excellent hand crafted upgrades for your Grado headphones. They also provide a great base for a custom Grado style build for use with 3rd party drivers.
For the price, and size the FiiO X1 II is a great little DAP, it will serve you well on your daily commute or when out and about. It has a smooth, easy to listen to sound that is about enjoyment over ultimate detail.
The Edifier W830BT is not a headphone for the seasoned audiophile, they are for the average person looking for a quality Bluetooth headphone for out and about use. For this purpose, you cannot go wrong with them, easy to use and fun to listen to, along with effectively blocking out most ambient noise.
So there you have it, two beautiful cables both with different sound signatures. Which will be for you, it all depends on synergy and what differences you want out of your current IEM's.
Presenting a well balanced sound across the frequency range, the A15 is a well built IEM for the price with excellent sound to boot.
The HDV 820 is all about musical enjoyment, just sit back and enjoy the effortless sound of your headphones.
The Questyle CM400i proves that neutrality really works when it comes to an all in one desktop device. One that works well with sensitive IEM's all the way up to full size planar magnetic headphones.
Horus is a cable that is incredibly dynamic sounding, it is full and impactful, yet at the same time it is open, airy and detailed. It may sound contradictory, but that is really how I hear this cable.
An excellent upgrade for your current Grados or for a scratch build, they offer a more vivid and dynamic sound over original drivers. They sound as if a veil has been lifted from the whole sound, and the soundstage and imaging is far superior to lower end Grados.
