Hey guys,
I'm sure you're all sick of questions about the Triple.Fis, but this should be pretty quick. I really love the Triple.Fis but I'm not a huge fan of the cable (wouldn't say that I hate it, but it could be better), so I was looking to replace them. However, I can't justify spending >$100 on a Null Audio cable considering I paid less for the IEMs themselves.
I was looking to keep my budget at less than $50 and looked for aftermarket cables on eBay. I was wondering if any of you guys have used any of these cables and if so what your thoughts were:
1. Jaben ES8 (can get 2 for $48, but I heard that the construction and weave were only ok)
2. The "Crystal" Cable (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Crystal-Upgrade-Cable-Ultimate-ears-/270593811024?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item3f00a5e250#ht_1062wt_956)
3. This one (http://www.ebay.com/itm/FURUTECH-Ultimate-Ears-upgrade-cable-UE-triple-fi-10-/220904687152?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item336ef20630#ht_2742wt_1189) (haven't heard the greatest reviews about this one either)
I also know about the Westone cable adjustment, but I'm a bit wary of cutting off a bit of the connector -- I've heard one or two stories about this going wrong and I'm not exactly the best with DIY.
Thanks!
