Youkamoo 4.4mm Balanced Headphone Replacement Cable Compatible for Hifiman Su...

No big complaints. Length is solid, sound quality is legit. Cables can feel a tad thin but doesnt effect sound quality.

Decent cable,quility

These are great! Beautiful and warm sound with a massive soundstage! Super comfortable for longer listening sessions. Detail is superb! Bass is perfect for me, some may find it a bit too much if you are a fan of the Aria stealth versions this iteration will either correct some things that needed tweaking in the original or you may prefer the original Aria Stealth. Not too bright to create user fatigue for your longer listening sessions. The technology contained within is what makes these so special. Endgame for me!

I am not going to delve deeply into sound quality because that is such a subjective thing dependent on equipment and music source. But What I can say is that they do fit my pair of Hifiman HE400i headphones. The actual plugs feel solid. They are metal and weighty. The cable comes in a plastic case with a nice carrying pouch which is a nice touch. The cable comes with a fake leather snap for organization which is nice. The cable is braided securely but does feel a little too plastic for my liking. But this is not a premium cable that comes at a premium price. I did try to use these with my FiiO K3 DAC streaming Amazon Music in Ultra HD. The cable did not work with this DAC because it has a 2.5 mm balanced input. This cable is. 4.4. This was an oversight on my part but something to be aware of. I did find another setup and it sounded fine. There was no added noise and my signal was clear as it should be with balanced. Yes, there are likely marginal gains with a more expensive product but this seems like a good budget/audiophile entry product. Or if you need to get your Hifiman cans set up with a balanced input for a more affordable price

I have been frustrated by so many cables that tangle and if you touch the cable or the cables touches your clothing you can hear it as the cables are very microphonic and transmit noise to the headphones. The solution is this cable, it does not tangle, it does not transmit noise to the headphones, I can use it on all my HIFIMAN Headphones ( Sundara, Ananda stealth, Sundara closed back, and He400se) with zero noise. I bought the 6 ft and the 8.5 ft with Pentacon 4.4mm plug and they are both excellent. Great value, great Quality and Great Performance! They are soft and maleable and beautifully built.

Good length, quality is a mixed bag though. The connectors are ever so slightly shorter than a normal 3.5mm so they don't work in a lot of standard headphones taking dual 3.5mm. I was looking forward to using these on my monolith m1070 because the length would let me sit further away from my amp, but they are useless because these jacks. We are talking like less than a mm. The only headphones they worked on were my JT1's and even then when you touched them you could feel they were barely being held in. If I didn't have to drive an hour to be able to return them I would.

I'm happy enough with the audio quality I'm getting through this cable--but then, I'm not entirely sure cables matter that much! That said, the cable has a decidedly cheap, lightweight, plasticky feel to me. The lower part of the cable (before it splits) is nicely braided, but once the cable splits into separate L and R wires, the braiding isn't as tight and in places the strands seems to be separating. It's just not a very professional look. Going forward, I'd rather spend a bit more money on a cable that (a) is a bit heavier and better braided throughout, and (b) offers interchangeable tips for switching between balanced and single-ended sources.

Sound quality, functionality,build quality

I thought I might be crazy but this cable stinks - literally. A bit like old tobacco. Such a strong and unpleasant smell that I couldn't use it. Rinsing and washing made no difference. The smell seems to be coming from the plastic covering of the cable. Returned.

It seemed like a good cable, a longer option to my headphones. Worked good do a few days, but now I got back contact in one of the sides. So I can’t move while listening. Not satisfied with the purchase, would return it but bought while on vacation overseas, so I’m stucked with a non working cable now.

HIFIMAN Edition XS の 4.4mm バランス接続用に購入しました。 想定通りの商品で、ケーブルの雰囲気は HIFIMAN の外観、一般的な DAC のシルバーの外観にマッチしており、違和感ありません。 ケーブルは柔らかく、取り回しも良いです。長さは 1.52m で、デスクトップの手元に DAC を置いている場合にちょうど合う長さです。 商品説明に記載ありませんが、プラスチックのケースに入って届き、小さな巾着袋式のケースが入っています。 マジックテープのケーブルタイが標準装備です。

Game changer, was getting error messages when using a 3.5mm to 4.4 mm jack adapter. Switched to this balanced cable, errors are gone and my FiiO R7 is now able to drive my planars. Was the perfect value for money upgrade. Thanks

Good quality cable, well made. Well worth the price.
