I want buy a 4.4mm cable for my final e5000

Cool...I just got E5000 today...they are power hungryyyyy Yup, a 4.4 mm balanced would be a nice option, but Final is very picky with cables.
I tried several with B3, and neither was good.

I want buy a 4.4mm cable for my final e5000.I did some research and find a cable on aliexpress. What do you think about this cable?
Is there anyone here using it?
My budget 60$.

It’s a very nice cable. It boosts treble but with slightly elevated bass too. It’s well made and musical. And very shiny. In all honesty it’s a bit too bright for me, but I am over-sensitive to treble.

But the question is, does it fit E5000 so it doesn't change its sound signature?
That's what happened to B3 when I tried different cables...
the sound was still good, but it lost its signature and magic.

Sorry, I don’t have the E5000 so can’t answer for sure. But that cable does change sound signatures, making them more U shaped with a treble focus.

Yup, that would be, for me, definitely, a problem...
both Finals that I have, E5000 and B3, have really specific sound,
and the sound really changes with different cables, not to mention tip rolling.

I gave up on the idea to buy and replace the stock cable even though I would like to have 4.4 mm on both.
But, until I read that someone owns the same IEMs,
with good replacement cable, that didn't change the sound signature...I am waiting

Who doesn't mind changing the sound signature of the Finals... then, there are probably plenty of options.

Do you think it is a good match for E5k

NiceHCK make some very good cables. Trick is to get when they have sales
That said it is very easy to find yourself with a whole bunch of them very quickly

I have the SnowSG, MeetAlice, CoaxialSir Ultra, Grey Dragon, AceOrpheus, 1950 Saga and DualDragon

1950 saga vs aceorpheus little comparison?

1950 saga vs aceorpheus little comparison?

I have these 2 cables in different pins so do take the comparison with a pinch of salt since I am unable to compare them directly

AceOrpheus has a warmer tonality and is noticeably more musical
Views the world with a rose tinted lens, works best with a cleaner sounding IEM

1950 Saga is more linear sounding and neutral sounding
Technical performance is pretty good and consistent with the price point

 

[Mr.HiAudio]

Has anyone tried the NiceHCK 1950saga? I'd be grateful for impressions.

1950 gives a little bit brightness, the middle and upper frequencies are more massive, the stage is much wider. Very good cable.

Saga1950->Saga1960->AceOrpheus.
Sound: 1950 is neutral bright, mid/higs forced; 1960 neutral, nothing forced, but there is a dark background(wow); AceOrpheus does have a big soundstage with thin and light higs(very very nice).

NiceHCK DragonScale 2 is now avaiable. I am still looking for a super resolving cable, but i dont think this will be it.
