– HiFi Cable 4-pin XLR Balanced Male to Dual 3.5mm male Compatible with Beyerdynamic T1 2nd, T5p Second Generation Headphones Silver Plated Replacement Upgrade Audio Cable

I'm writing this with the price point of £35 in mind. This is very inexpensive for a balanced XLR cable, with most other offerings selling for around/over £100. I'm using this with the Beyerdynamic Amiron Home, and the Beyerdynamic T5P Gen2, paired with a Schiit Jotunheim balanced amplifier (using a multi-bit DAC). Build - The build quality is solid, I feel like it should easily last me a while. Equally it doesn't feel premium, you are getting what you pay for. It's a thin cable, I expected it to feel quite soft and flexible (like the many similar looking braided IEM cables), but it is quite rigid and hard plastic feeling to the touch. Anytime I moved at my desk. the rigid cable was prone to rubbing against clothing or my chair, which caused microphonics in the headphones. These were very audible. Amiron Home Sound - The sound quality was great to my ears. I was previously using the single ended stock cable that came with the T5P, for both the Amiron and T5P. The stock is a nice 1.5m cable that suits sitting at a desk. I immediately noticed a difference in sound quality when running this balanced cable. The Amiron Home received a slight improvement in separation and definition (which was already very good). I noticed a smile inducing improvement that brought extra life to them. However, I haven't tried any other balanced cables in this setup, this Ablet one is my first. But an improvement is an improvement, so top marks in that respect, I won't be going back to single ended with the Amiron. T5P Sound - Unfortunately, I didn't get the same improvement with the T5P. Perhaps the T5P just doesn't suit running a balanced connection, or perhaps the Amiron suddenly sounded so good that the T5P was left in the shade. I felt the extra separation made them sound slightly less lively. I think I'll stick to the stock cable with the T5P. But when I get a more premium balanced cable in the future, and can compare, I will put an update on here. All in all, for £35 this is a great buy. It doesn't have the premium feel of cables 3 or 4 times the price, but that should be expected. The most important thing is that it sounded great with my Amiron Home, which was the reason I bought it. I just wish they'd use a softer plastic on the cable strands. Cheaper braided IEM cables have that, and as a result have less microphonics when the cable is touched. That's the reason I scored it 4 stars instead of 5.

Very good XLR headphone cable and gives an extra sonic boost for my HiFiMan Ananda Nano headphones. Recommended.

Buona fattura, non si aggroviglia, perfettamente schermato non fa rumori da carica elettrostatica. La cuffia, grazie al collegamento bilanciato, ha sensibilmente guadagnato come qualità della riproduzione sonora. Prezzo adeguato alla qualità del prodotto e tutt'altro che elevato se confrontato con i produttori concorrenti

Excellent cable for the price. Fits my Beyerdybamic T1 3rd gen perfectly.

Probieren im eigenen Setup. Wenige werden es nicht vermissen.

Il cavo sembra di buona qualità, all'ascolto in cuffia nulla da segnalare ma ci sono stati alcuni dettagli che non mi sono piaciuti: i connettori non sono placcati d'argento (come specificato in descrizione), ed il cavo non è schermato minimamente. Mancano anche le informazioni sulla dimensione e qualità del rame all'interno del cavo.
