Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

I believe almost all of these....
Are available from aliexpress for @ $7 to $12. I just purchased 10-12 different sets of varying design and quality in their mid Year sale. Paid @ $175 for the batch.
I will check them with my ohm meter when they arrive. All are 2.5mm balanced 0.78 2 pin design.
YMMV

I had the 2nd cable, it's solid. Have/Had lots of YY cables from Amazon. Been meaning to get the 1st cable as my current one on my KPE is the 6 core SPC, want to try pure Copper to see if I see any differences, though I'm sure I won't so I've held off. I do like the look better than plain white.
Received mine too. Using it with DM6 and Andromeda. Very very good cable. Soft and light weight. Will post a short review soon.Just got my ISN Audio S4 cable. Looks like good quality and sounds good as well. Did have to cut off the ear guides as it seemed that on one side the polarity was reversed (2-pin connector) and the ear guide was thus in the wrong direction.

Where to find VJC cables?
And what is the best value for money MMCX, balanced 2.5mm right now, would use it with Tin T2.
Not knowing much about cables I bought the BGVP DM5, almost a year ago, they turned green, so how bad of a decision did I made?

My GUCraftsman cable (133 on the list) for my qdc vx has arrived. There's no option for qdc connector so I asked the seller and they said they can make one for me.
The quality is excellent. I have to listen more but the sound is about the same as the stock cable.
Thickness comparison with cable no. 130 on the list, 130 on top vs 133 on the bottom
4.4mm connector comparison with 130

Finally ordered cable 130 for my C16. I hope it come soon.
THE SIDEGrade
Morning, as promised, was trying to make an impression regarding 165, compare to 130.
I want to include Abnormal, but when I tried it on, the Warm Sig already makes me reach 165... (I not to keen to warm Sig)
the gear I (only) used is my Solaris, with DX228.
flac songs :
Billie Eilish - Bad Boy
Billie Eilish - ilomilo
The Postal Service - Such Great Heights
Santana - se a cabo
Slime - Steppin' Razor
The looks...
Overall, quite same Sound Signature between the two...
165 better (small marginal ) then 130 in term :
- Darker background, the reason is because the Bass, Mid and High is thighter, that's what I exp (Song, Santana - Se a Cabo)
- due to thighter Bass character, it felt like the rumble even have layer detail (Song, Postal Service).
- Pint pointing excel, edit,this prob because darker background and thighter in each freq. (Santana - Se a cabo).
- lighter, edit. What to myself, the purpose of having 165 is lighter weight...
- seems better material for the mmcx connector.
130 > 165, in term :
- Dynamic acknowledged in low Volume... ( Volume 8 - 12). While 165 will start around 10 - 14
- more punchy bass in some songs (Billie elish and Slime)
- Mid felt more layer, but less detail and felt backward then 165.
- Soundstage a bit wider
My point, like the title said, is a sidegrade. a bit overlap may be...
Darker background (clarity) -> 165
better dynamic in low volume -> 130.
Which one I prefer to use... I let my ear and time judge.... each have some piece that I want...
Thanks to @hakuzen to inform me about 165. edit : it looks like EA Janus iBasso... hehehe I like...
additional :
165 all good...
@Slater Ur the man, keep inform us about your action. The truth sometime terrifying, but its necessary, and hope gents here can be mature enough to handle the info. Thank you...
edit, I can only dare open the jack case, no more than that, since I still want to enjoy the cable more
Update after using for 1 week and Reterminate 165 to 2.5mm.
Since 165 is copper based, I felt is a bit lack of Micro Detail compare to 130...
Now, I tempted to reterminate 130 to 2.5mm...
hehehe...

Great work, curious to see what you think of the results.
what is the best cable under $ 10? I have trn 8 core but I listen to a little bit strange with tin t2. and I'm looking for something cheap that has quality similar to the original t2 or trn 4 core

you can try last one from nicehck, 16 cores high purity OFC copper.
measured and tried it recently, and it's better built (better plugs, better solder work) than trn cables (which have showed solder issues most of them).

edit: imo, best option in <10$ segment at this moment. best conductivity, nice construction
