Any recommendations for a good 4.4mm copper cable ?

Its a 8 braided copper cable.
Can get at Sony store.

I suggest you try out other brand copper cables see if suits you.

I would say the Kimble Kable under Sony brand is good for average use but not the best. Take note the mmcx plug is on the loose side, too much of removing will make it more loose.

Just to add, I also really like 1A with Kimber Kable and Andro. Also, while I think it is better than ZX2, it is probably not significantly better, and also you lose a lot of possible functions such as streaming apps, etc.

I never bought the ZX2 so decision was easy for me, but I probably wouldn't bother upgrading from ZX2 if I already had it.

Thank you both for your comments on the 1A with Andro (and ZX2)

I think my plan will now to get the Andro (out of stock anywhere I checked in Japan), burn them in, get used to the sound and then go and try "better" DAPs to see if worth it to me.

I can't recommend as i don't have other copper cables. I heard good things about PW audio cables and EA Ares II.
Some bros here also bought YY Pro Audio's Tucana here.

Other brand there's Plussound, Dita, Toxic Cable etc.

But you just read more in the cable treads, some brands takes a few months to complete the cable.

The one I like are the Brise Audio copper cables and is my main cable for my Tralucent 1Plus2.2. No sonic concerns, ergnomics-wise could be a little tangly. Some folks claim they're microphonic although I've not noticed that myself.

The color of the upcoming Brise is really nice.

Keep an eye out for Onso cables
http://www.onsoproject.com/iect_03_m.html
 
They just introduced a silver plated copper cable with L-shaped 4.4mm plug on one end and in MMCX in the other, soon they'll probably complete the line up with 2 pin and Fitear plugs as well as they usually do.  Good thing about Onso cables are that they are very reasonably priced (this one is 9700yen) and the cables themselves are very flexible and tangle free. Onso cables are a very good for people who don't think they should need to spend a fortune on cables.

involuntary humour is the best.

Really? The Ref?? During the Fujiya show this past weekend I thought they said 24th March then on Monday they mailed me and said 14th March and now it's 31st March? Wonder what's going on. Anyway I'm heading to their office/factory on 25th March anyway - gonna be a loooong ride out there and back.

Mine is the UPG001 (the lower picture) - the regular UPG001. The upper picture is the UPG001Rh+ (The Rhodium one). Here's my pix of the Rhodium one :-
 


The picture I quoted in post #9364 is the UPG001Ref. There's no public page for that yet (actually I have it but can't share it out yet). So just to clarify there is the :-

UPG001 - no sale since last year
UPG001Rh+ - taking pre-orders with delivery of 31-Mar as you saw above
UPG001Ref - debut last week's show but so far no page up yet as at today.

It is not so easy to order on their site. Any international retailer. I have one in China but he doesn't seem to have the RH+
