Wich cable should I buy for the Timeless on 11.11?
$50 Budget.
I donāt know if my unit will arrive before 11.11⦠but do you still recommend to buy tips for it even if I didnāt try the ones that comes with it? If so⦠wich ones?
I would like to have my Timeless with upgraded cable and tips for better comfort, fit and sound if possible.
I use the NiceHCK C8 cable. Kbear 8 core might also be good if you like pure copper. Foam tips work the best for me on my Timeless, so I would order some T2 tips from Aliexpress.
I donāt have one, but I am thinking of getting a xinhs 4-core graphene on 11.11
People rave about them.
They are sold on Aliexpress, and the āRecommend IEM Cablesā thread is probably 40% xinhs cables.
The four other cables I have from them are all really, really nice quality and
two of them are some of the cheapest they offer (bought for cheaper sets in the collection)ā¦
I was thinking that depending on the prices, I might do a round of XINHS cables, one for each connector, since the MMCX of the Timeless will get me to regular sets with all three common types getting listening time.
The KZ ZEX got me thinking about QDC again, and I have a few 2 pin ( Mele, Aria, SSP ).
I have a Tripowin Altea 4 Core Monocrystalline Copper that I like for sound, weight, and looks, but it is very stiff, and pricey at $40 ( Amazon ), so I probably wonāt do another.
My go to is the Tripowin Zonie 16 Core Silver Plated, the grey is $20 ( Amazon ), and they are very flexible, tough, and coil nicely. I have they grey, and the jelly ( silver and gold ) was the Meleās upgraded cable as well ( it meant getting a $30 for $20 ).
I wonder if upgrading to XInhs cables is worth it. My cheap copper only cables are good enough for me and I dont see the point of spending that much. Especially since I buy cables for many IEMs.
Oh I see. But I donāt mind the looks of the 4-core graphene (kind of grey), I think it will look great on the Timeless.
Amazing photos!
I guess I know why you donāt want to bring that topic to the table (cables = snake oil⦠hahaha) If sound doesnāt change that much or even nothing at all I donāt care, but at least comfort and quality must be good. I think that the Xinhs 4-core graphene has that without destroying my wallet.
Sorry @nymz ⦠How can I change the color of the conector, splitter and pins? I donāt see any options on AliExpress besides types of connector and plugs. Do I have to contact the store (Xinhs)?
