If your now telling me that swapping cables is like rolling tips, my wallet is going to cuss you out!!! You guys and your freaking hobby. Youāre killing me.
BTW , love my FH3 so far thanks for the discussions and the REC. Really excited to hear them with the BTR5 and then some balanced cable once I decide (or just flip a coin).
More power is almost always better though. So its more of an amp thing than cable.
As long as it doesnāt come at the cost of quality of power, but yes. Moving to balanced on the btr5 gives a noticeable sound quality boost
Okā¦ Nevermind. All cables, IEMs, tips, amps, dacs and sources sound exactly the same. lol
I just took a Sharpie to my cables and this didnāt work. Now you owe me a new cable. /s
Probably @skedra has one of the best objective cable feed backs on this subjectsā¦loves IEMās builds and sells his own cables 
I think people need to experience stuff themselves and then come to their own conclusions in generalā¦ I know I was in the group of āit canāt make a differenceā for a long time 
Also, warm copper/cold silver should be burned with fire. I had the opposite a bunch of times so itās not a rule of thumb 
100% thatā¦if you donāt hear a difference with a specific cable then cool, if you donāt then cool too 
I was too, until I noticed the difference. EEK! Gotta re-think everything.
Would love to get your perspective generally on cables since you are an expert from both a listening perspective and builder.
funny, next youāll tell me to stop watching youtube
Theory: resistance is more important.
Test:
With a lower resistance than stock cable , that is what I think Iāll hear. 0.49 to a 0.15 should be noticeable. Anyone who has FH3 and both FAAEAL and TriThough confirm this? That between stock and either is noticeable but between the FAAEAL and Tri is not???
This also assumes, that the SE vs Balanced is consistent as well
sorry , Iām an engineer 
Excellent! Since the scientist or the engineer in you is coming out, you can see the flaw with the conclusion.
Remember the saying, ācorrelation is not causation?ā
This is happening here. You cannot make a comparison with a variable, when there were so many other variables that were introduced and not mentioned.
So letās say you compare two different companiesā cables. Yes, one has lower resistance, but you have no idea on the purity, the braiding pattern, etc etc.
Anyways, back to the original statement. The best thing to do is to try it yourself. If you hear a difference and it is worth your personal value, cool. If not, cool too.
P.S. Letās get this thread back on topic, which is talking about IEM highs, lol
I just canāt not point this out 
You mentioned flaw in the conclusion in previous post, mentioning science.
And then talking about trusting your ears.
Unfortunately, if we want to use words like scientific, we cannot trust our ears (by ears i mean whole hearing aparatus)
Thatās part of my point.
Science, and especially measurements, should not have a place in trying to identify that one sounds better than another in a hobby that is subjective.
This is especially important when those measurements are used incorrectly, under the guise of science.
When one has a scientific discovery, he/she presents their material for review (laying out all variables and findings) and is typically seen as untrue until it cannot be disproven. In this hobby, weāve seen science used in the opposite sense. āSee! This is better because these cherry-picked graphs says soā even though it has been proven wrong by so many professionals, engineers, and designers.
There is no ābetterā, only ādifferentā.
May I ask how the tripowin fairs against the starfield, and the fiio fh3?
