Unfortunately most of if not all the cables on this thread is about earphone cables but to be honest with you. It starts with being curious about such cables via ebay or aliexpress. Your gonna have to figure this one out. Unless someone that reads this thread owns this particular cable. It is a risk reward type of thing. I know that is not probably what you wanted to read but.

We all take risks in trying out an aftermarket cable. Hoping to learn from one another what is good and what isn't You my friend will be the lone wolf on this one. Please do report if you decide to take the plunge however.

Does anyone have any experience or recommendations with these LCD cables:

It looks like there were some posts previously that said the cable was good but build quality was inconsistent.

Lunashops cables are sheer value. Don't know if you ended up buying that cable but for my money I would go pure silver. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2-5...lgo_pvid=35d222c8-42ec-41fa-8a2b-7acae9456d7b Try this one

Thanks for all the responses. Very helpful.
Dsnuts suggestion is good. that cable uses same wire than number 115 in my list (if you are interested of its structure and conductivity).
you might find it cheaper if bought at lunashops directly: http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=6081

I'd be interested in 2.5-2.5 and 2.5-4.4 balanced interconnects as the xCAN is going to make those a more common thing I think. With most DAPs having balanced outs and xCAN having balanced in, I can see people wanting to take advantage of this. I ordered a couple extras from iFi but they are the standard black plastic shelled thin cables and I would love to see some more durable designs.

Looking for suggestions for my Massdrop Sennheiser HD 5XX Jubilee's. I use them with tube amp with 1/4 stereo jack .

I got this for my 58x Jubilee. I wasn't looking for a particular one, I just want a cable with 4.4mm balanced connector to Sony zx300. So far so good, good quality, pretty good for 20 USD.

I was surprised today to see my 3 cables I ordered about 3 weeks ago. Including this one.

NiceHCKs is $129. Alternate version is $89. I bought the alternate as it is cheaper by a lot.. It is the exact same cable as the colors/ materials are exactly the same. I am very certain it is the same cable. These are so good it went directly on my Solaris. I have been using a pure silver cable on the Solaris and this cable brings yet another level to my Solaris. This cable is most definitely worth the money.
