NewFantasia4.4mm Balanced Cable 6N OCC Copper Silver Plated Cord Walnut Wood Shell Compatible with Hifiman Sundara, Ananda, Arya, HE400SE, HE4XX, HE-400i Headphone (2 x 3.5mm Version)

It seems that no matter how much you pay for a headphone the cables that are included are less then stellar. Both of my Focal headphones, the Elex and Elegia, came with fairly good cables but I immediately them with one Hart cable and one Periapt cable. Both are much better then the stock cables and sound is good. The Hart is thin and the Periapt is thick and beefy. I ordered this cable because my iBasso DX170 DAP has a balanced out (4.4mm) that has more output power then the 3.5mm.This NewFantasia cable feels and sounds good. It doesn't tangle and has nice heft. Not heavy, just robust. The connectors are nice. Plenty long enough. For walking around (which I don't do with full size headphones) the cable may be a little too long. The case for the 3.5mm connectors are very so will easily fit with any headphone that takes this connector.Very pleased. Highly recommended.

Looks good, feels good, and sounds good.

I recently got the FiiO Q3 to pair with my Sundara, and wanted to go balanced. I tried the other NewFantasia 4.4mm balanced cable (the lintz braided one), but this cable has better sound quality imo. The Lintz cable sounds brighter and takes away from the bass. The only thing I don't like about this cable is weight. It's a little heavy and puts extra strain on my neck. Otherwise, the sound quality and build quality is pretty good.

I tried these cables with both the Monolith M1070 planar magnetic headphones, and the Moondrop Para planar magnetic headphones. They work with both sets perfectly, and don't have noisy exterior sheathing like other cables sometimes have. I recommend them.Edit: works with Hifiman Arya Organics as well.

I purchased these to replace what I consider to be the average quality cable that comes with Focal headphones. I have a couple of very expensive replacement cables and wanted to see if a bargain cable might compete with them on sound. I found the answer to be "Yes", this cable sounds every bit as good to my ears as my other two cables costing between $300-$500. This cable is made of high quality materials and looks expensive. It sounds excellent...better bass, mids and treble than I get from the stock cable and every bit as good as the more expensive cables. I like this cable so much I have purchased several more in various configurations to use with my headphone collection.

I got this cause I wanted a balance input( using Fiio M17) with my Focal Stellia, the included XLR cable isn't truly balanced and its stiff and noisy , this baby does the job. No lost in sound quality and it has a better covering that cause no microphonic noise. Ditto with my Focal Clear. Love them.

It's an okay product, worked good and looks good but the left side eventually just stopped working after having a buildup of sound problems.

This works well with my Focal Elegiia headphones. The chord is well made. I recommend it.
