I just bought the ISN C4: A beautiful cable indeed, it arrived yesterday. When I opened the box, I then realized I accidentally had ordered the wrong cable, I should have paid more attention to the scrolling bar of choices...I got the mmcx, wanted the two-pin .78mm... Anyone want to switch? Dang
Anyone compared ISN H16 to S16?
I’d pair with my IMR RAH that I’m listening with **** 16core (16core x 16wires) silver plated.
I’d like to get more air and open highs but I don’t want to loose amazing mids and bass
I would go for the S-16. These are copper cables that is coated with silver. It is what a hybrid cable should be vs what these folks consider a hybrid cable. Is even more copper. Might as well get a pure copper cable if your gonna go hybrid or H-16.
Thx. Dsnuts, I did that. I'll wait for their response. I think I may have gotten the recommendation originally from you. I do appreciate the follow up from you...
Try the S-16 ulimately the more silver material will have an effect for detial and since it has a copper core. Will take care of the mids and bass end too.

If you look around you can find some rebranded ones for a bit cheaper. These cables are solid for the price. Only catch is with stuff coming out of China it is always a crap shoot now when you will get your items due to flight regulations .
Can anyone recommend any L-angle/Right angle balanced 2.5mm cables in QDC and/or MMCX?
The only one I can find is the HifiHear 16 core cable, which is great and I've bought in both MMCX and QDC already. I would like more right angle cables
Before I ask my question fantastic thread, hats off to everyone involved for all the time and money that must go into a thread such as this.
I'm looking for a cable to use with my spring 1's/ ibasso DX120 - 2.5mm balanced, pure copper, 0.78mm connectors, soft cable (softer the better), earhooks and as cheap as possible.
I've got a couple of cables for other IEM's with mmcx connectors. My favourite is a 'banned brand' cable it's soft and sounds great doesn't have earhooks. But I cant see a version with earhooks made from the same wire
I have had a good look through this thread and also through hakuzen's list but being a newbie I've found it all a bit confusing and thought I'd ask directly. I'm also open to any suggestions and all ears.
And finally..... what is the connector on the Blon BL03? I currently use a TRN 0.78mm but would prefer a cable with the right connectors.
Cant say. Even among silver coated cables there is a difference. Reason why you see such a wide variation in prices. Materials has a lot to do with price but manufacturers mark up prices according to what they want in the margins too so it all depends. No real rule all these cables goes by.
I have cheaper SPC cables that end up not sounding as good as the more expensive ones. The cables I found that are good indicators in price meaning your going to get a certain level of quality for the price are Penon cables. Since I reviewed a lot of them I got to know their sonic qualities first hand and they all have a good value to price ratio.
The cables from Aliexpress are wildly varied in quality and in price. I have some $25 cables that are as good as some $60 ones. And some $60 ones that are as good as $100 ones. Some more expensive ones that aren't that good ect. Cables are difficult to gauge. This is a case of you wont know till you end up having a lot of them to compare which is a wacky way of figuring out what works and what doesn't but if you own a lot of IEMs like I do then having your share of cables is actually worth owning.
Why not go with a good copper cable for a bit of a change up in sonics. That BLOCC I should get very soon. will report how they are as soon as I get it.
