Will be doing some cable searching and I will post a link of the ones I have my eyes on on the discovery thread. Keep an eye out here. Some nice buys on the ali site. Load your credits on pay pal and lets see what deals we can find.


I can vouch for this one. My most recent cable. It is a larger cable but the sonics it produces for the money is straight bang for buck. Highly recommended for FX850 or DM5 users.
Will be $35 on ALi day.

This next one seems to be a higher end cleaner looking cable than the previous one.

A nice cheaper silver plated copper balanced cable for $20 on Ali day

This is another cheaper balanced cable but more a hybrid silver/ copper combo.

An all black silver coated copper for $30ish balanced

OOO I like this one. single ended but looks very nice for the price.

This last one is all copper. Love the looks of this one. Much cheaper on ALi day

That 4 BA with Dynamic Rhythemos seems to be all sold out. I tried to buy it but it wont add to my basket. Oh well.
The best way too go is to buy the cables from one vendor like **** and you can click on an additional coupon for buying this and that before you check out. Managed to save another $6 this way.. The cable I linked to are mostly Woos. Have fun browsing fellas.

Haven't kept up with Chi-fi, RT1 recommended?

^Yes.

Lots of price manipulating going on though. I always had that LZ 2.5 or 3.5mm silver plated cable in my bookmarks and it has been $39 for either version on Penon since forever. Woo-take your money-Easy has it on an amazing 11/11 sale down from $80-$86 to $40 for 3.5 and $43 for 2.5mm balanced. Cables I have in my ebay watch list for $41 are $70 or $80 on some Ali sellers so watch out for the B*LLSH*T.

Ok so this is brilliant. You guys see this adapter that lets you change your mmcx connector to a 2 Pin? Check this out @DannyBai https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ear...id=88444acd-d39a-4919-b275-b15b475d663a&tpp=1

Ooops, that one isn't two-pin though. That is for FitEar and the Jaben model listed and may work on older ETY but two-pin is a different one though they have that one as well. Don't order that one though and expect it to work with RT-1 or KZ or such.

This is what you want...

Been pondering if I wanted to try out that Rhythemos SD7. It was interesting as I tried several times to add it to my cart with my first order and I couldn't for some odd reason. Then it dawned on me that you have to choose which color by clicking on the small pic of it on the buy page..No choices really as all the black ones are sold out so only choice is the white ones. In any case with vendor coupon it ended up being around $125 for a 4BA + Dynamic earphone. I went for it. Any of you want to give the SD6 or the SD7 a try I figure now would be the time to try one out. Considering I have 2 new balanced cables and a 8 core copper cable coming my way. Might as well get this to try them new cables out with.

glad you figured out the color button allowed the order to go through. i stumbled on that earlier
but didn't order one. look forward to your impressions. I'm happy as pie with the DW5 and
ordered a red bronze one for the heaven of it....

Thanks for all of the useful links @Dsnuts and @jant71. It's nice to know about those adapters.

Ok, it's wine time again, and for some reason I'm seriously considering either the DM5's or the RT1's. Which ones?
