The stock comply tips are trash, or maybe damaged upon arrival (since I order used), this morning I am running a 17 miles, the foam tip simply cannot stay in my ear and I found one of the tip is broken in half. Back home, I found some Tripowin memory foam tips and they are much better in build quality and SQ is even better. Now I have ordered numerous tips in the past years, they are laying around in my room and I have simply lost count of them.
Yeah they are not cheap cables. They use the highest quality conductors, the best solder, connectors and shielding. All these things do not come cheap. But is it worth the price? That comes down to relative terms. If it's worth it to you then that's all that matters.
I've pretty much moved to 4.4mm as my default termination for all cables including for full sized headphones. Those 2.5mm to 4.4mm adapters are not very good at all. They don't last long. 2.5mm is not durable. And, 4.4mm is much better for full sized headphones, too, because you can use your headphones with your DAPs and 4-pin XLR is too heavy.
2.5mm was my default for the longest as I thought it offered the most versatility, but nothing beats the solid tree trunk of a 4.4mm plug.
There's never the question, "Is it in yet?"
I am, by no means, a cable expert but I bought one from this company, Plussound. They levels depending on how much you want to spend. I went with the Poetic series for my Mest MKii as I wanted a single ended to use with my Chord Mojo. Im happy with it! Is there a sound difference? Maybe, but it wasn't noticeable to me, anyway.
Thanks, will consider that. It is actually a local company in LA, unfortunately they do not have a physical store here.
Wait, Plus sound is based in the States?
Yeah, they are! They may source parts overseas but I’m pretty sure everything is assembled in the US as well. And great to work with, awesome customer service
Yes, according to their website, all their products are made in their Los Angeles facility.
