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

Hey all, picked up a pair of Sony WH1000XM3 (ooph long name) wanted to get a 3.5mm to 3.5mm so I could use it wired occasionally. An
Yes, I did. Really impressed by how quickly it shipped and how fast it got to me.

Hey all just picked up Sony WH1000XM3 (hmm Def didn't get that right) looking to get a wire for it so I can use my ES100. Without falling into this rabbit hole (again) can someone recommend a 3.5 to 3.5trrs cable I could get on a custom length? Looking to spend about £40. Thanks!

Hi I have a rose Masya earbud and my cable begin to loose. I'm looking for a replacement cable with 2pin (preferably 0.75mm but 0.78mm is fine too) I but I can't find any good quality 2pin cable that have a recess that like KZ Para B (KZ ZST, AS6...). Can anyone recommend any cable for me? Thanks

I want to change the cable on my iBasso it01s, since it's giving me comfort problems. I have a **** 8 Core Silver Plated Copper balanced cable, which is much better in comfort,
and the original it01 cable is better too.
The earhooks of the **** are more tight, the cable is more flexible and thick which help it to stay on ears.

You think I am loosing sound quality? It's a 8usd Vs 100usd cable :/
If yes,what cable so you recommend?didn't want to spend more than 30usd.

I've bought a bunch of cables from aliexpress and Amazon but I'm looking to see if someone could recommend something better than like a Triptowin C8 or a **** / Nicechk 6-8-16 core copper cable. I'm using CA Vegas with a Hiby R3 pro and Chord Mojo. mostly EDM, Hip-Hop but a little bit of everything else thrown in. Was looking at a a Linsoul LSC08 or ISN C4, S4, SC4? Not quite sure It would be making an upgrade. I don't really care for the CA stock cable the earhooks are rather uncomfortable, i prefer no memory wire or no ear hooks at all (glasses). Been trying to get the jist of how cable materials impact sound. this would be for 3.5 single ended and MMCX for the Mojo. Have a bunch more 2.5 balanced but have to use with my Fiio adapter.

@Dsnuts do you think that for the ISN H40, the S4 cable is worth the price difference from a Kinboofi 8 core? I was able to order it for only 20€

But I am waiting for the seller to send it, and was considering cancelling the order and buy the S4 from Penon. Thanks in advance

I have used the same Kinboofi with Blons, paired with xDSD, Holly molly that stage, resolution and detail is off the hook amazing pairing, definitely great cable...
Sadly xDSD had to go, I'm really gonna miss that pairing, hopefully upcoming BTR5 will be just as good.

I make all my own cables from Mogami Cable. Works for me. 2964 is good for unbalanced interconnects.

Bought these for cheap to try out.

Measures a bit high at .9-1.0ohm (900 to 1000 milli-ohm). I didn't expect much for sub $5 ea.

ISN make good quality cables. Worth a try - you might want to consider a hybrid H8 (not the H16 - heavy and a little edgy in the treble) or the 4 core Electro Acousti cables.
