This is great to hear. I've been buying Hakugei cables recently and they ARE worth the extra few dollars. They usually come in a nice case too.Thanks for the Hakugei recommendations. I really like their style. I bought one of them today and the rep was very helpful in letting me customize it.

This is the base, but I wanted a 2.5mm balanced right-angle connector with a 65cm cable. Those were free customizations, but I also upgraded to a nicer looking plug/splitter/mmcx style to raise the price by about half.
The Big Rice you bought is one of my favorite cables of all time. Super comfortable and the 6N is really pure and I can really hear it.
I'm saving up for the Interligent Star, the 7N OCC copper cable that has been cryo/cold rolled afterwards. It has 5 plug options too or whatever you want for a decent price for $100. And the Ancient Vine for $110 looks nice. And the Turtle And Healer.
For around the $40-$60 mark and pure OCC copper, the Lucky Voice (7N, no earhooks - $40), the Saja (6N 2 different conductor diameters and swappable plugs - $45-65), the Lothar (my FAVORITE OCC copper cable (7N, amazing insulation and it has 4 cores of cotton in each core of cables in every core), gives it a really unique and dark background because there's something soft between the cores of conductors - $60) and a bunch of others that are Silver Plated OCC copper.
I like the Galaxy too. Been wanting it for my Celest PhoenixCall tri-brids as they definitely sound best with SPOCC to ME
Thanks for the info about customization too!
