How to choose headphone cables - feat. Koala Taijitu and Gladiator Caesar

Gladiator Cables Caesar: https://gladiatorcables.com/caesar-line

This video began as a review of the Koala Audio Taijitu headphone cables and the Gladiator Cables Caesar line of headphone cables, but it soon became apparent that there was an opportunity to compare different geometries and types or metal in these four wires. The Taijitu is a low strand count copper cable up against the litz designed Caesar cables which are monocrystalline pure silver, copper silver alloy, and pure copper respectively.
