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

i'll do it. i'm going to be offline a few days (3-4 days) but it will be ready then.

I'd say a custom cable (if you manage to get answered) using this wire: www.aliexpress.com/item/1000007820233.html
and this plug: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33054928246.html / www.aliexpress.com/item/1000007820233.html
choose your divider and mmcx plugs from the store.
it is one of the best quality not expensive few cores copper cable, sound wise, and the most flexible and softest in my database.
ask for a quote and you might get surprised of the total price (in a good way, of course).

What are your thoughts about this wire: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33054892706.html?spm=2114.12010615.8148356.36.40b240f8IVotQR ???

2 things comes to mind. You can ask for a change from your current cable. You can see if you selected .75mm or .78mm. If you selected .78mm before you bought the cable then they might have sent you the wrong 2 pin. If so NiceHCK are good folks they will change out your cable for you. You might need to pay for shipping though.

Or. You can dip the 2 pins in some solder to thicken the pins so it will fit your socket.

Took a bit over month to get to me but got 3 of the 5 cables I orderd .

First up is the 8 core pure silver cable from Lunashops.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/8-c...743.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.22074c4dkcAFx0

Kick ass cable from lunashops..These are the real deal. So good I replaced the stock alo super litz cable on my Solaris which is a $200 cable with this. And I have to say.The sonics not only improved but the cable itself is a stunner in person. For the $70 asking price. Completely worth your money. Soft pliable not to mention stupendous definition and clarity.

My other cable.

This thing is blingy. Single crystal copper silver plated in gold color. I replaced the stock alo litz cable with this thing. Yes this is $41 on the express. Sounds even better than the stock cable. Bigger bolder sound from this cable on my Andromeda S. Not to mention looks stunning.

So my 3 new cables are all performing as I hoped. Got 2 more I should get soon. Thus far I have been crazy lucky going off of instincts. Lol .

Hi DSnuts, does the silver cable loses bass? I am very interested with this actually. Am using it for my Audiosense T800 with 8BA each. Currently running ISN HIFI 16 core copper. It is rich but too rich until the treble gets cut and the T800 can't shine no more. I have tried other CHIFI silver cable but the bass is pretty low making things pretty "hollow".

Please let me know your views ya... anyways will you consider this as 170 in your cable review article earlier? Thanks heaps my friend

Cable I would try is this one 125 on Hazuken's list. This will be on sale on Aliexpress at around $55. Will be worth checking out. Pure silver is good for added transparency and detail on your phones but also has a side effect to leaning out the bass a touch so this alloy copper cable seems to be what your looking for.

Another one worth considering is this one 130 cable. .I use this one on my AndromedaS and it sounds excellent on my Solaris as well.

Both these cables will be around $50 during sales. Both I consider value for your money. For what your looking for either or of these should be worth checking out.

Speaking of alloy cables. This is 128 on Hakuzan list. This is the most recent cable I bought from last sales in September. I have to say this cable is crazy good for your money. It is basically the 125 alloy copper with a silver plating. What this does it adds even better detail over the standard 125. One of the best cables I have used on my Solaris. It is what I am using with it now actually. Never heard my Solaris with better imaging. Brings out the fullness of sound with no loss of any detail across the frequency. Currently my favorite cable. $60ish on sale. Worth every cent.

Thanks heaps DSnuts!! Appreciate your feedback heaps! Still reading through the previous threads to understand wht most people have experienced haha. Is this the 8 core pure silver cable from NICEHCK? I was looking at that initially but was afraid that the bass may be too weak (like the ones displayed with my stock silver cables).

Then somehwere mid of this thread someone actually mentioned S16 and apparently the bass will be good and not overwhelming whilst the highs are fully extended and transparent... but i havent managed to read through the entire thread haha jsut at pg 50 now hahah

Any recommendations for a replacement cable for campfire audio comet on amazon uk? Right one is hanging by a thread, and never been convincedby the chin slider either. Anything under £50 is fine (don't do aliexpress). Thanks

Have you got a link you could share for the 125? I'm not finding it at the price you're suggesting. Or do the 11.11 prices change once we hit 11.11?

Thanks
