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

Deciding on cable for my C2 at work.

ISN C16 is the thickes sounding while perhaps being the least comfortable due to being so thick.

NiceHCK PurpleSe is quite similar to C16 but lack some thickness in the lowest range, very comfortable once the cable guides is removed.

NiceHCK Silverloong is thinner sounding than the 2 others but might have a tiny amount more resolution, very comfortable.

Well, I had a bad moment this Friday with my Big Rice, because the right MMCX connector failed, only 5 months after purchase, and being extremely careful with it. Sound going on an off when pressing, so obviously it was a soldering problem.

The good news came when I noticed that the MMCX connector was screwed, and it was very easy to unscrew it. After that, with a minimum of soldering ability you'll be able to repair it. I did it, and I have zero, nothing, nada, soldering skills. So, even if you have problems, this cable is easily repairable. This was a detail I had not checked previously, but I will take it into account in the future, specially in more expensive (for my budget, Big Rice was my most costly cable to date) models.

Hi!

Can some of you recommend me KZ connector type cables for fairly cheap? The end connector is 3.5 or changeable if there are good ones.

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004388265588.html In person it looks rather cheap but all in all I can't complain
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004815870719.html Turned out to be cooler than I expected, but it's a very cheap cable
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004351243506.html Could be a little softer but overall it's ok

I forgot that XINHS also has nice cheap cables with QDC connector. If you don't need a mic, I like XINHS more than my suggestions. They are soft and order comes in a nice box.

Didn't expect a Hungarian here to be honest!

Can you please share your collection with me?

I am curious what could you achieve in this little country since I am struggling with import fees. Not much stores cover it and I can't get popular IEMs or headphones because of that.

I ended up buying a KZ PR1 Pro since it is planar and I've heard that planar is good for metal. I have the CRN and the Tripowin TC-01 too. This is my collection now :).

(Keeping it English so that everyone can understand it)

Minden jót! :) / Best.

Had to read that a few times! Initially thought was a bit harsh to accuse them all of being liars!

The Rubycat will be released very soon. Their marketing claims German copper, perfect low frequency, super clean male vocals.
