Hi, I'm new to the ChiFi universe. I've just bought 2 IEM : KZ ZS3 and KZ ZSN Pro.
As I don't like the stock cable of the ZS3, I've decided to buy the **** 16 Core Silver Plated Cable that I found on a review of CCA C16 here.

But after researchs, I found that they are several "versions" of 2-pin connectors : A paragraph, B paragraph, number C...
I'm totally lost. Is all of these connector compatible ?
Where can I look the "version" of the connector on my IEM (I don't find it on the product page) ?

Regards

According to the website of Allie express , KZ ZSN pro uses pin type with the measurements: 3.5 mm, 0.75 mm

They do have several types. I guess the width of the IEM connector is 3.5 mm and the pins are 0.75 mm long.

KZ tells you for which types a certain cable is.... for non KZ cable it will be a guess, because the connector is not always exact the same in length, width and even form: square, or or square with a point on one side.... maybe ask different stores if it is compatible with your IEM(s).

Have a look at the website which cable and measurements the other have. Hope you find another good cable. KZ does make silver cables as well, next to their oxygen free ones.
