If you lived close by, i would glady let you try them.
So you know if its worth it or not.

Hi, regards to your cable, did you get a straight plug or an angled one? Also, have you used it with portable player? I do not have a home set up, so I normally use my iems with portable device in my pocket. My concern is straight plug bending awkwardly in my jeans pocket and damaging the cable. (unfortunately all my jeans are tight fitting).
What are your thoughts in this? Thank you.
Is there a reason for me to be sceptical? I do not have any experience nor opinion in this matter and would like to hear other people`s opinion. Ultimately, I will form my own opinion when I get the opportunity to test and compare the two cables, but for now, I will have to be content with other people`s experiences and impressions. So, anzdmp, how did the sq improve?
How about you project86, did you get sq improvements in your beats audio cable?
Also, the portable player I use is iphone. When I use straight plugs and sit down, I can actually feel the tip of the plug where cable meets pressing firmly against my leg. I am careful not to damage the plug or the cable but, I have broken a couple of iems (one broken plug and one worn cable) and have avoided them since. Then again, all the iems were sub $150 and hence lower quality. So, this is why I was asking about the plug. As a consumer, what I should expect with a straight plug and the durability of beats cable in particular.
And sorry, if I was opening opening a large can of worms, that was not my intention. But I do want people`s opinion on beats audio cables though. (Or should I have opened another thread?)
In a jeans pocket a straight plug would result in less cable bending, as long as you place your DAP with the cable connector pointing upwards. I've had issues with the L-plug on my RE-ZEROs when wearing jeans, ultimately result in the cable breaking.
yes maybe, but a straight plug also effects more leverage and in your situation in tight pockets, long term possibly damage your dap, or amp output jack instead. i know what i would prefer to break
even just walking is enough to produce enough repetitive movement to over time cause damage, so unless you are standing still imo its an issue and i have seen the results first hand. if its doable, best way i have found to use right angle jacks when in a pocket, is to have the jack on the bottom of your pocket 'under' the dap or amp. this way there is almost no movement and the cable is not unduly stressed either. depends how much you need to adjust volume if the knob or button is on the same side
how are you guys finding the bass drive with these? 12ohms is very very low and playback with some daps and amps will surely be effected. i am interested though, is there anywhere in brisbane to go chat to someone about these? i have already entered the comp. because of the design and the low impedance, i would expect these to benefit quite markedly with an amp to provide better current across the low Z load. any experiences there?
