Hi all, long time reader, first time poster here! Hi from Melbourne, Australia!

After getting into chifi, I got a pair of the BL-03s, and quickly followed that up with the T2+.
I'm about to pull the trigger on the Qudelix 5k so I can start using balanced audio!

Scenario: After waiting 40 days for the Kbear Rhyme cable to arrive from Aliexpress (thanks for the rec on the cable) I was disappointed to find that it's a 2-pin instead of the MMCX type I need. Currently in dispute with the seller, having just rejected their (pitiful) USD$5 refund offer, which is less than a third the price I paid. Hopefully Ali will step in and make a ruling soon. I now have a 2-pin 4.4mm Rhyme cable available if any Australian user here is interested - please PM me.

Question: The cheapest 2.5mm mmcx cable I've been able to find on Amazon (because I'm not gambling with Aliexpress again) is this one: https://www.amazon.com/Braided-Earp...=1&keywords=mmcx+2.5mm&qid=1602550542&sr=8-11

Has anyone used this/can anyone make any recs for an under $30 AUD 2.5mm mmcx cable? Thanks!

My go-to recommendation for a solid, but affordable cable on Amazon is the Tripowin Zonie 16. I have 3 of them (all in the gray color), and they are good and dependable. https://www.amazon.com/Linsoul-Tripowin-Silver-Plated-Earphone/dp/B07ZQC6B9D

I will add, however, that you don’t “need” to run the T2+ off of the 5K balanced for it to sound great. The T2+ doesn’t need that much power to shine. I can vouch for both the T2+ and the 5K. Both are excellent and worthwhile purchases.

Thanks! I was looking at that one as well since loads of users here have also found them reliable.
Can anyone confirm whether the Zonie synergises well with the T2 Plus?

i don't know if this is the right place to ask but can anyone recommend a cheap, short cable for my usb dac (usb-c to micro usb) with no dac chip just a good cable material?

 

[cappuchino]

Guys, is the banned YY 8-core Silver-plated Copper cable good?

 

[meridius]

Tri Through cable





(Kbear Limpid = top, Tri Through = bottom)


(Faaeal litz copper = top, Tri Through = bottom)


Measurement = 0.15 ohms!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The connector on the 4.4mm jack has some weight to it so it feels very high quality. Ear hooks are transparent so with the silver color on the cable itself, it is very hard to see the ear hooks and they arent as strong as on the Faaeal cable. Chin-slider that works.

This is epic. Awesome cable. For those of you that wanted a silver colored Faaeal cable this is it and this is actually a bit better since the connectors/divider are higher quality and also has a working chin-slider.
Although best cable in terms of value is still the Faaeal cable due to it being quite a bit cheaper (around 10 usd djfference).

where did you get the cable as i need some new cable for my westone W4r ? thanks

you still like the cable.

So I guess that's Zonie's niche now. Cheap Amazon cable.

It is tied as my nr 1 cable with the faaeal litz copper cable.

That is a digital cable you need, get whatever you want. No difference at all in SQ, so pick based on aesthetics.

By digital cable do you mean charging cable? And a 1$ one is the same as a 10$ one?

No not charging cable. a normal 3.5mm cable is an analog cable while for example the usb cable you need is a digital cable. With digital cables there wont be a difference in SQ with a 1 usd vs 100000 usd cable. Only difference might be the build quality (it might last longer) and the aesthetics.

Yep. All that matters with a digital cable is build quality and durability. It either works or it doesn’t, I or O.

I can also vouch for the Tripowin Zonie. I've got a balanced 2.5mm 2 pin QDC on my KZ ZS10 PRO and a balanced 2.5mm mmcx on my YBF-ISS014. It's a solid, well built cable and is really soft and supple. Doesn't tangle much either and has good connectors.
