I ended up getting the newest version of the ISN S4 but in 2 pin to try out with the TSMR earphones.

I noticed these have the new more premium connectors and terminations. Same great sound characteristics but looks more premium now.

Looks like the one I got with the ISN D10.

Ya they made the change before the D10 I believe.

This is the pic of the older version. The improvements are they took the soft ear guide out. The old ISN S4 was the only ISN cable with an ear guide but the new one no longer has it. And again you guys can see the more premium connectors on the previous pic.

Hi guys, I'm searching for a low cost mmcx cable with a right angle plug (probably from aliexpress). I hate those thick cables with a passion.
So it should be a rather thin one. I don't care for "sound improvements". I'm more focused on good ergonomics and lightweight.

I actually would like somthing like those linum cables, but not as expensive.

Hi guys, tried searching the thread but didn't find much.

I'm looking for a quality 3.5mm MMCX cable with microphone. if it has cVc 6 or cVc 8 (noise cancelling), even better.

Right angle mmcx plugs, or right angle source plug (3.5/2.5/4.4)?

FiiO makes some nice ones.

They not only have 90 degree source ends, but 90 degree mmcx ends as well. The 90 degree mmcx ends helps hug the ear for a nice secure fit.

They are good quality cables, with Japanese components.

You can even get pure silver versions of the cable, although those are about $100.

If you do order a FiiO cable, be sure to check the length in the description. Because FiiO makes a shortened version of their cables, designed for use with a Bluetooth adapter. So if you want a full length wired cable, make sure the one you’re ordering is not the short one.

I just wish FIio made a QDC version! :frowning2:

I’m still on the lookout for:
-short cable (eg. 40-50cm?)
-QDC connectors
-2.5mm balanced (preferably right-angled connector)

Haven’t been able to find such a cable...the Fiio is the closest, except only MMXC/2-pin.

I guess I could just use 2-pin (not ideal), or an MMXC to QDC adapter (also not ideal).

Aren't the 4.4mm FIIO plugs straight?
I was going to order one, but the only pic's I could find of the 4.4 were straight. It's a shame as it would be perfect otherwise (please tell me if I'm wrong, I'll order one!).

Not sure about that. Since I don’t use 4.4, I’m not as familiar as what’s available as I am with 3.5 and 2.5mm.

Hmm, they must have discontinued the 90 degree model, as even Fiio's own site specifies a straight jack on both 4.4 models that they now sell.

I wish Neutrik or FIIO or someone would make a 90* jack in the style that FIIO used to make (the one you have).
Even if it was just a jack that could be retro-fitted to an existing cable.
