I've certainly considered it, but would rather a simple, 'low profile' 90* jack.

The modular cable that DD-HiFi have in the works is definitely of greater interest to me (splits at the y-split via a tiny 4-pin connector so you can choose any jack or iem pattern you like.)
E.g. currently, if you have 3 daps with different sockets, and three pairs of iems, also with different sockets you'd need 9 cables to allow the use of all iem's with all DAP's, but with the proposed product all you'd need is 3 DAP terminations, plus 3 iem terminations.
It would also allow you to have one really short DAP termination for use with a tiny clip-on BT receiver such as the BTR5, or a really long end with a 1/4" jack for desktop use.

I've emailed FIIO to see if they still produce 4.4 L shaped cables. Awaiting a reply now.

I'm looking for a high quality 3.5mm cable with microphone (and volume controls preferably). Getting sick off taking off my IEM's to take work calls!

Both QDC and MMCX options welcome

Whith you on that mate. Since I got 64a mic cable, that is saving my ears from removing/inserting my customs all the time.

Nice, I had a look at that cable, looks like it's 2-pin and doesn't come in QDC or MMCX options?

that's right, unfortunately it is for 64a range that are 2pin. Not on the "low cost range", but Plussound used to have good ones and they can be built with any connector.

Hi all. I'm choosing cable for my Hifiman Ananda. Will order from aliexpress. Can someone tell me if Lunashops cables any good? For example: https://aliexpress.com/item/4000711160302.html or https://aliexpress.com/item/33055252206.html ?
It's sad hakuzen measured mostly cables for IEMs, I found only GUcraftsman cable in the list have 2x3.5mm option.

Ah yes, budget $50-150.
I might be wrong here, but I believe you can ask Electro acousti to make a custom cable for you.

Here is the link to their store

Does anyone have experience with the following cable?
https://a.aliexpress.com/_BTBPQO
I was told that it has amazing haptics, though the conductivity supposedly suffers due to the unique configuration.
looks very much like the ibasso it01s cable. It is thick and not very flexible. Sounds good but I don't like the ergonomics...
