    So my new Nicehck cable just arrived yesterday and I'm afraid that the 2 pin connectors are .75mm instead of .78mm because they are really loose. Anyone know if there is anything I can do to help keep them connected to my ciems?

    I have a pair of Heir Audio A4's. They are getting up in age but still work well. The original wire is having some issues though as the left one cuts out periodically. I think it getting snagged on my desk chair's armrest so often has taken its toll. I know it is the cable because I switched...

    Are you doing the assembling/build or are you having them do it for you? When I get a free moment, I plan on ordering a new cable and want to do a custom length but don't have the tools or expertise to build it myself. Curious how much they chare for the assembling.

    I've notced that all of the cables linked on this thread and I've looked at on AliExpress and Amazon are 1.2 meters in length. Is there a simple way of getting a shorter version of the same cables? I want to run my ciems through a bluetooth dongle, so my cable will stop catching on my office...

    I've noticed that everyone seems to be purchasing their cables on aliexpress but it seems that some of the same cables are also on Amazon. Being from the states and having a Prime membership, is there a reason not to order from Amazon? Or the cables just similar looking but not the same quality?

    So I've been checking out a lot of the cables in this thread and am wondering how to figure out the lengths on the aliexpress cables? Not sure I want to go through the headache of custom building one but also am looking for a short cable because I am going to pair it with a bluetooth dongle...

    I have a pair of Heir Audio 4A's and the cable keeps getting caught on my office chair so I'm thinking about getting a bluetooth dongle so I don't have to plug them into my computer. Anyone have an suggestions on reasonable priced and short two pin cables?

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    Totally random question but has anyone else noticed a odd sound in the recording of One Republic's Counting Stars?  It is a weird twerp type sound that isn't very loud and is about ever 5-6 seconds during the chorus.  For the longest time I was scared that there was something wrong with my 4A's...

    Noble Audio - the Wizard returns!

    I get that the prestige is expensive for a reason.  I have no idea how they make them but they are very impressive.  The challenge is that for this particular model (Savant) there is a really big difference in price between the universal and the prestige.  Most (all?) of the other models come...

    I wasted sooooo many hours playing that game in college!!  I may have to see if I can get an updated version so I can waste more hours.

    Yeah, I was disappointed to hear that the Savant can only comes in custom in the prestige styles.  I mean the prestige styles are crazy cool but it triples to quadruples the price instead of the normal custom which only adds 50-100% depending on your design.  I currently have a pair of 4.As and...
