Some manufacturers will make a longer cable for a small surcharge, such as ivipQ/Xinhs.Is that the standard on most IEM cables?

I always hate that length, 1,25 is just to short, should be 1.5 or 1.6, not everyone keeps devices in their pocket.Should be 1.25m.

No but I sit at a desk and my gear isnt right next to me so having extra length allows me the freedom to move around w/o my IEMs ripping out of my ears....lol, are you guys like 7ft tall?

Hi, anyone has experience with the Xinhs G88 4-Core 7n?
Was having doubts about the NiceHCK Snowcat, Blacksoul or Blackcat when I came across the Xinhs. My aim is to slightly elevate bass and slightly reduce treble. With the emphasis on slightly. I never heard of them so hence the question.
Any help will be appreciated.

After just a few minutes of listening to this cable I do have to say that it sounds like a typical copper cable with a deep bass. The build quality is very good and professionally done. Just for the build quality alone it is worth buying this cable if you enjoy copper cables.My G88 is gonna arrive tomorrow. I might post some info about it.
I love the plugs (which are probably the only thing differentiating this one from any of the other 100's chinese made cables).FAAEAL Slender Waist. Anyone ever heard or tried this cable? I couldn't find it being talked about anywhere, at least within my research efforts. Thinking of getting a new cable for my 6XX and this looks very appealing.

I've just purchased this cable, my first foray into seperate cables.After just a few minutes of listening to this cable I do have to say that it sounds like a typical copper cable with a deep bass. The build quality is very good and professionally done. Just for the build quality alone it is worth buying this cable if you enjoy copper cables.
This happened to coincide with the arrival of a Penon Fan 3 with the Space cable. To be honest I wasn't expecting to hear a great deal of difference but swapping out the Space for the G88 noticeably enhanced the bass (as well as making higher frequencies recede slightly). So it's interesting to note that this is a typical copper sound signature.
I'm still getting used to/burning in the Fan 3 but currently I prefer the G88 to the Space. Also I love the way it feels. By the way on Alliexpress it says the G88 was orignally GPB 240 - (I got it much cheaper).
I'm guessing this probably wasn't the case?

Aliexpress prices basically always show discounts for "made up" prices. That's how many aliexpress shops operate. Your G88 cable is still a beast, i was honestly surprised it is that good despite its low price.I've just purchased this cable, my first foray into seperate cables.

SportsDirect as well...and they are not in China...a lot of other shops use that strategy, too.Aliexpress prices basically always show discounts for "made up" prices.
