I'm no cable expert but all the cables you mentioned should be better than the ones Sony includes (better sound and materials). As for which among them sounds better; doubt any one person would invest in all of them so comparisons may be difficult.
I was about to order a cable from www.plussoundaudio.com (they already have the z7 in drop down choices) but am considering that the Kimber may be better since it was engineered alongside the z7.
Thanks for the reply!
It's a given that any of these cables would be better than the stocks: for one, SONY felt the need to market them; and two, those cables cost more than 1/3 the price of the phones...
I took a look at plussoundaudio cables, and the LR series pure silver Type 6 Litz (Cryo treated) seems to be the most expensive option (I usually use price as a reference when I'm not sure which to get), and is that the one you were ordering?
I do like the Kimber option since they are packaged as a bundle solution for MDR-Z7 and PHA3; while they are most definitely better than the stock cables, are they as good as the other options? Unless the cable is at cost, SONY had to get them from Kimber, then add extra which probably mean the actual cost of these cables are not as much as the others, eh?!
