@Dsnuts , do you happen to also have a recommendation for a pure copper cable under $50?

Hurry and snag one before sale ends. These are higher quality than your garden variety copper cables. UPOCC cables. These usually sell for up to $80ish so it is a good deal.

This is another version of it a bit cheaper even.

Just got a set of these. It is the 8 core version of the cheapo 4 cored pure silver cables. NiceHCKs version shown here. I just compared this cable with another much more expensive pure silver cable. Which was the GU craftsman pure silver cable, retails for $130. I would be telling a lie if I said I prefer the GU craftsman. As far as I can tell there is really no benefit in spending the extra $90 for a pricier silver cable. Truth is both are very similar in how they perform. It is astounding to me that you can get a quality pure 8 core silver cable for less than a $40 spot.

If these cables existed about 2 years ago people would have thought I was making it up but nope these are for real. So what is better than a sub $20 pure silver cable? An 8 core version for less than $40. Signal is cleeeean with pure silver. Works wonders for warmer sounding earphones.

I just got the KBEAR Limpid Pro (KBEAR equivalent for those that don‘t know). It’s also a really well built 8 core silver cable, that sounds like a good silver cable should. I think better looks and feel compared to the TRN T3, and more length as well.

The first one is an SPC I believe. In order to get the KBEAR 4 core UPOCC (pure copper) black nylon covered cable, I had to order from the Wheezy banned store instead of from KBEAR’s official store. It’s also a available from a few other stores, but not from KBEAR weirdly enough.

Is there any difference between these and the ag8?

 

[Dsnuts]

Is there any difference between these and the ag8?

Less silver material. Much lighter as a result. Has some similarities to what the AG8 does but has much less silver content. Resolution and transparency is very similar but don't have that fuller presentation or the stage of the AG8s. You can guess where the better value will be but these arent exaclty the AG8s.

So here is something new


These are newest cables minus the 8 cored silver cables from NicehCK called the C8s-1 C8s-2 C8s-3 C8s-4
These are 8 core variations of their 16 cored variants the C-16s. So while there is less cores here these are just as good. In fact your gonna have a hard time noticing any real differences in how they perform vs the 16 cored versions. They are all SPC or silver plated copper variants. Only difference is color variation as you can see. Not the best pic but you can see the differences in color the idea there is the match up the color with your IEMs.

C8s-2 in red with Red TMSR-4 pro. Matches perfectly not to mentions performs extremely well for the given cost. These were cheap enough for me to get a variety just to check out. I would consider these more standard in how they perform vs anything really special in cable land but for folks that want a good soft cable that works well for your balanced players these will work well not to mention looks very nice.

Hi,

I'm looking for replacement cable for HD6XX, I need it to be 3m long. I'm in Europe. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

 

[cappuchino]

Got my JCally JC08s cable. Bought it for 4 bucks. It's nice and supple but the earhooks are stiff. A bit sticky. It's also a lot shorter than the pink/orange KBEAR 4-core cable I have. I recommend it for those who want to buy an upgrade cable for cheap but even the KBEAR is much nicer for a $1 more.

I've got some Tripowin Zonies and they are quite a nice cable. They work and sound good. They are priced on Amazon pretty fairly, otherwise it would be ages at this time of year from China. Be careful though...only some are in stock on Prime. Check carefully, others come from China and will take some time.

I've never heard a Westone so I have no idea friend. The couple I have at the moment are 3.5mm and I use them on a HiBy R5, and at the moment have a RevoNext RX8S on one of them, and I like the sound.
Edit...they are well made too. Quite soft

Cheap good cable for Blon-01?

 

[IEMusic]

Cheap good cable for Blon-01?

KBEAR Limpid or NiceHCK LitzPS, both pure silver cables that you can get on AliEx.

 

[piji]

Ended up grabbing this one for 11/11.

Finally received this. Has no ear hooks which feels weird at first but I think I like it more than having the hooks. Cable itself feels nice and soft and the MMCX connectors seem good. It also came with a little felt bag thing which is a little odd but sure, whatever.
