...Anybody here live in Germany?
Why? as i know these are from KZ. I bought it from aliexpress and they came with the KZ package. So?These are not KZ cables. They are nice looking, but considering their thickness , I do believe the wires are made of aluminium,
(a cheap metal) plated with another metal. The only metal that sounds good is oxygen free copper: "OFC" and it may be plated with silver,
that enhances the sharpness.
I have no link cause I baught them 2 years ago, but they look like this (bore, inside tube should be 4mm diameter for the sound)Do you have a link to which ones you bought?

Your cable has no KZ logo I guess, it is not "second generation silver cable" new generation if there is one is the twisted bronze-grey colorWhy? as i know these are from KZ. I bought it from aliexpress and they came with the KZ package. So?
Tin plated wires sound muffled, at the opposite of silver plated (that I use with speakers since long) that sound more sharp.The conductors in that wire are indeed copper, not aluminum FYI.
I just don’t think any of the KZ wires are really silver plated. I think they are tin plated (like most inexpensive “silver plated” ChiFi cables). I think they get away with marketing them as “silver”, because silver is a color in addition to being a metal.

Hello Slater
Did you receive the ZS4?
They are changing the price everday, yesterday I could find at 14$ now it's 16$, I hope it's not just modded ZS3

Silver metal is no more expensive like it was, therefor it is now largely used in the industry.
Silver fixing: 28 August 2018: one (troy) once (31.10g) = 14.9575USD
I use the KZ silver cables with KZ logo (that turn green after some time) on ZSR and ED16, and they do inprove sharpness, clarity & punch versus stock cable.

Tin and Silver plating do not look neither sound the same
The "red & blue" cable even without the KZ logo seems well to be from KZ, they insist it is professionaly silver plated + the solder contains 4% silver (this is the best for sound that I use myself) but they do not advertise the wires body are made of OFC
Le last line of KZ cables (twisted) are advertised as pure OFC for the brown one (stock with ES4)
and pure OFC silver plated for the grey.
I don't know, but that wouldn't be the worst solution, then they should redesign the sound and get rid of these nasty peaks in highs and rerelease it as ED16 Pro, or ED16 HD... That would make me really happy
No it has significant logo on the cable's package and itself. Its obviously KZ product. BTW i have the ES4 and the new cable (ZS10-AS10-ES4) They sound even worse than the silver cable. Keeps tangling.Your cable has no KZ logo I guess, it is not "second generation silver cable" new generation if there is one is the twisted bronze-grey color

Yes that cable has KZ logo.No, it has.
I have this cable.
Yes, I placed my order yesterday. Not sure when it will arrive (probably 2-3 weeks).
I paid $12.76 with a $2 select coupon = $10.76. I just chose the cheapest seller.
whoa where'd you get the $2 select coupon from?
