Interesting that the starfield cable is a 4N OFC cable.



LitzOCC is 4N as well.

So I just went back n forth between my Moondrop blessing 2 cable which is a 6N litz OCC cable vs the LitzOCC shown above .
The sound between the two cables are pretty much the same. I would have a difficult time figuring out which cable is which. The stock Blessing 2 cable is actually a very nice 4 core OCC cable and supposedly a better purity than the LitzOCC shown above. The stock Blessing 2 cable is higher quality cable vs the Starfield 4N OFC cable by the way. Should be considering their cost. I am certain it is the same cable they include in their higher end S8 model as well.

I can't tell much of a difference at all between the two cables on my NM2+. That just means the LitzOCC is playing at that level.

FIY: The Blessing 2 stock cables measures at around 0.34 ohm for me.

I was looking for a 2.5mm balanced in silver and ran across this NICEHCK LitzPS-Pro 8 on twitter. I don't see an 11-11 sale price but on Twitter it said $29.99 for the first 80. I ordered without payment, hopefully, I can get a price adjustment.

Update: I did get the price adjustment last night.

Wow great catch!
If the impedance really is under 0.3 ohms, then WOW.

EDIT: Ok looks like they claimed the ordinary litzps is under 0.3 ohms.

Which it isnt, so I guess it has the same impedance that is at around 1 ohm.

Not sure if this is budget or mid-fi, but I just recieved the CEMA super copper today and I am very impressed! Beautiful cable and very soft as well! Build quality is superb! I got a generous returning customer discount too which was nice. Sound impressions to follow.

TRI Through cable and KBEAR Lark. Superb combination. Looks great too!

Received the Electro-Acousti 6N OCC + Silver mixed cable. For just $35, really pleased with the overall build quality and fit and finish. The memory wire is also not annoying as many others in the price range and mostly malleable. Overall, highly recommended as an upgrade cable.

I just bought two KBEAR Rhyme cables in 2.5 balanced, TFZ 2pin configuration. One to use with my recently acquired BLON BL03 and the other to use with with my just purchased BLON BL01. $38 CDN for both with free Aliexpress shipping. Currently own this cable and using it in balanced 2.5 QDC format with my KZ ZS10 PRO. Will be putting it on my 11/11 purchase...KZ ZAX.

Spoiler: Kbear Limpid

(Left = limpid, right = litzps)

Kbear Limpid VS NiceHCK litzps:

Limpid advantage:
Working chin-slider
L/R marked with blue/red colors (very visible)
stronger earhooks
Better looking divider/connector (for me)

Litzps advantage:
a bit cheaper (22.61 vs 23.65 usd)
softer earhooks


I would take the Limpid over the litzps due to the looks and because they both measures around the same, Limpid = 0.46 ohm vs Litzps = 0.53 ohm, most likely unit variation and are exactly the same cable.

Spoiler: Kbear Rhyme

(left = rhyme, right = C8)

Kbear Rhyme VS Tripowin C8

Rhyme advantage:
higher quality divider/connectors
red marking for right connector
Lower measurement (0.23 ohm vs 0.34
much cheaper (20.69 vs 29.99 usd)

C8 advantage:
besides the looks, none


The Rhyme makes the C8 100% redundant and a worse cable at a much higher price, not much to say about this comparison other than that. They do look really similar (different colors) but the measurements are a bit lower on the Rhyme so most likely not the same cable.

Would you recommend using the kbear rhyme 8 for the nf audio nm2+? I heard in the nf audio impressions thread that the upocc cables help tame the upper mid range. If not. Whats another cable in the $15-30 range that would do?

I am a cable placebo believer, so I say just get a cable with copper color should be fine. Kbear Rhyme and the Faaeal litz copper cable for example.

But depending on how much you want to reduce the upper mids, EQ is your best bet. And you can try some narrow bores like the Final audio type E/sony EP-EX11 tips.

Hahaha, alright. Going off on that tangent, I prefer the looks of the tri through cable. I hope it achieves the same as the two you mentioned. Thanks!

The Trough cable is basically a silver plated version of the faaeal cable.

I have been using the NM2+ with the new litzOCC shown here. Great match. It sounds great using this cable. Cheap and worth a look during sales.

Speaking of LitzOCC. I just wrote some impressions on this review here. https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/nicehck-litzocc-iem-cables.24760/reviews#item-review-24710

Absolute steal for these sub $20 cables. As many copper cables I own these stand out for sheer value. More resolving that you would imagine from a budget offering. Goes extremely well with all BA earphones and highly detailed monitors.

Well here's something that makes my head spin just thinking about it. What is considered reference? Short circuit or the stock cable?

 

[musicinmymind]
