Its pretty bad actually when you put it that way. If I ever sense a cable putting too much stress on the female pins I stop immediately, no matter what the cable has been branded for. I think I've sanded the pins down on a couple.
 
These are my favorite cables on eBay, these guys make good stuff, I've used them on a few TF10, 1Plus2, Rhapsodio hybrid.

im using E11 but with bass boost i can hear tons of hissssss..... :(

well, what'd you expect..it a Fiio product hello?? 
When I first got my E11, I could hear more hiss on low than on high gain so I took it it back to the shop. The owner let me listen to the demo unit and to my surprise, both sounded identical, hiss more present on low gain and with the same unbearable hiss with the bass boost turned on. Just don't waste your time on Fiio products, your ears deserve better

yep, my fav cable was the ''dream'' cable very nice sound. the fiio is just no good, imo they need to pull their WHOLE line of cables until they can get it right, they are ruining peoples gear its bs.

Does anyone have any experience with Zee's cables on eBay?

My old ES8 cables have finally started to die out on me - the plastic wrapping around the cable is falling off near the connector plug, which is cutting out sound all over the place unless I press down on it. Not ideal for portable music. I've looked around and it seems Jaben no longer sell these cables, and a popular(but apparently awful) cable by FiiO doesn't seem like a good fit for me either.

  My cable is dying. Can someone recommend the best cable on the market? thanks


I bought FiiO RC-UE2 some months ago from MP4N and its good but so springy (you know its silver plated so...), lot of microphonics.....if you want something under $15 and on tight budget, click the link below. it's like 1/2 the price of FiiO's.....

Yeah It's good like I stated and nicely built too......it's just the microphonics bothers me even with shirt clip, but that's fine and nothing serious tho....and I might buy that $15 cable next month or so just to keep it as a back-up.....
