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

Just a follow up, about this cable. I have not found a better all copper cable, regardless of price. This cable lays straight and stays limp, and is just a joy to use. I highly recommend this cable if you are looking for a good copper cable, that will give you all the benefits of pure copper, with zero negatives. This cable has a well balanced sound and I have it paired up with my Lyra II and love what I am hearing. This cable is the definition of a perfect copper cable.

Out of curiosity, is that the 4 core version of this cable? https://aliexpress.com/item/4000097502378.html the wire looks the same to me.

NiceHCK 4 core Silver left. KBEAR 4 core silver right. I like the looks on the NiceHCK one a bit better but they are using the same materials.

Same exact weave.

What do you guys do with your stock cables that you never use? I have too many stock cables that I never use...but throwing them away feels like a waste....

I just keep them. Never know when you'll want to hear the "stock" sound again.

I got a substantial pile myself. I keep em all. Only reason why I have them around is if I want to sell off one of my earphones. No where does it say I have to throw in an optimized cable to sell off one of my earphones.

Speaking of cables. I will give you all a tip just before sale ends. There is a UPOCC cable sold by you know who it is a Y Y brand. 5N UPOCC if you look for it on their site you will see it. it is the same material that is on the NiceHCK Blocc and KBEARs UPOCC cable. IT is being sold for $40 got them during last sales and I just did a head to head against the Blocc cables and

Long story short it is the real deal. It sounds exactly and I mean exactly like the Blocc cables. But for substantially cheaper. Not to mention there is no cord noise like the Bloccs.

Snap up on a set if you need a great copper cable. These are a steal at $40.

There is only $10 difference in prices. Ya you did good. I have that cable. Well NiceHCKs version. I did a review for. I have it on my TSMR-6. Sounds absolutely fantastic on a more detailed oriented monitor.

NF audio NM2 as well. Love me some UPOCC cables.

Well I also took the sale opportunity to take the 20usd silver KBear cable and also a 20 USD 8 core UPOCC KBear cable, so let's wait a few weeks to try them out !

Is there a silver analogue to UPOCC? And how does a UPOCC cable compare to a 6N single crystal one?

Not really much difference I think the UPOCC variants have the edge for stage and blackness of background. But I own crytsal copper ones that does pretty much the same thing.

I know buying some of the cables on Aliexpress is a crap shoot as descriptions on some of these cables you gotta wonder about but in my case. I know what a true UPOCC copper cable sounds like on a detailed earphone. So that is what I base it on.

Crystal copper is the basis for a lot of cables but I would give the slight edge to UPOCC variants. Some of the best depth and space can be achieved using a nice UPOCC. Super copper cables is a another way to describe them.

Thanks, Are there any UPOCC silver cables then? Or is single crystal silver the best you can get?
