Is this a good cable or there is better alternative? For a copper cable at the same price?
KBEAR 16 Core Upgraded Pure Copper

Never had a 16 core cable before, is too heavy? Are the earguide more comfortable? For example with 4/6 core, sometimes the earguide seem to thinner and hurts
It’s not heavy at all, because each core is extra thin, but is makes the cable extra supple and comfortable. It’s a nice cable.

Thank you!

You think is a good option to soften the treble of a bright iem?
It is, but probably won‘t cause a huge difference, but it depends on the IEM. Some IEMs are much more sensitive to cable changes than others. It seems that the more sensitive the IEM is, the more it is influenced by the cable.

This seems to be great copper cable, but is 4 core.

Would you recommend a relatively inexpensive 2.5mm MMCX cable for Smabat M2 Pro earbuds? I will want to connect them to the balanced output in the FiiO BTR5 or Shanling UP4.

Thank you in advance for your help :)

Hey guys,

I'm looking for an inexpensive MMCX balanced 2.5mm cable for ISN H40, Penon Orb and FiiO FH3. Any recommendations for a cable that suits these IEMs well and are not that microphonic?

Thanks for your help.
All copper: Faaeal cable, NiceHCK LitzOCC, KBEAR Rhyme (corrected, thanks @Sunstealer)

Mixed: KBEAR Rhyme, Tri Through

All silver: KBEAR Limpid/NiceHCK LitzPS (4 core), TRN T3, KBEAR Limpid Pro/NiceHCK LitzPS Pro (8 core).

Have any of you ordered from EE Audio Store on AliEx? Just wondering what their reputation is.

I had once ordered from them but later found out that their prices are usually higher than on other stores. AK/NiceHCK and the banned store usually have better deals than EE. Hope this helps.

I currently use the Sony Kimber cable with my MDR-Z1R and was looking to buy a second cable with a different connection for an amp so I don't have to use an adapter, also I can benefit from a shorter length. There is a lot of good feedback about silver cables for the Z1R so it is also an opportunity to try silver as the Lavricables etc are very expensive, for good reason. I know nothing about cable specs and was hoping for some opinions on the one in the link please:

Does anyone know if the generic wire they use is of decent quality, or if the 16 core specs would be adequate for the Z1R? Thanks
