Anyone can recommend a custom cable maker with reasonable prices in the EU

Depends on your understanding of reasonable prices. ^^

I heartly recommend Forza Audioworks from Poland.
Mateuz is a great guy to deal with.

What kind of cables? I can make analog and digital interconnects. I don't make headphone cables.

It's not EU anymore but @jfunk runs customcans and he makes great cables at workin' man's prices. If you can take a chance on importing from UK, highly recommended. I have a bunch of his cables and Sennheiser parts.

I'm interested in chi-fi only at the moment, that's why I asked about aliexpress EU warehouses stores. And finding their products on ebay/amazon EU I find overpriced comparing to Ali.

I am determined to at least try not to buy anything made in China for many reasons. It is difficult but we should all endeavour to not support this bullying, repressive and aggressive regime. Nothing against the Chinese people but the sooner the cpc is brought down the better for all mankind. AIMHO

You can't swing a dead cat without hitting a bullying, repressive and aggressive regime. I don't see any difference between the USA, EU, China etc. in that regard. People are people everywhere, but so are politicians.

I think it makes sense to buy locally made products to keep yourself and neighbors employed.

I have no experience with them, but they operate out of China, if that's an issue for you. They hide the fact extremely well, the only clue is to read the T&C and find "governing law" which is China.
