I personally put strain reliefs on my TRN V20's cable, and the ones on my ZS6's

2018-05-28 03:33:39 UTC  

TRN doesn't have a very good strain relief right by the plug

2018-05-28 03:34:08 UTC  

Just took the spring out of a pen, wrapped it around, and it's a good strain relief

2018-05-28 03:34:17 UTC  

Didn't have to solder it or anything

2018-05-28 03:36:42 UTC  

Is there any actual point in getting the silver plated cable vs the copper-only cable?

2018-05-28 03:36:57 UTC  

yeah you see silver makes the music sound more royal

2018-05-28 03:37:05 UTC  

Yes, lowers resistance, it doesn't break as easy.

2018-05-28 03:37:13 UTC  

I noticed a very slight difference in sound with ZST's

2018-05-28 03:37:28 UTC  

silver costs more so it sounds better to the failable human brain

2018-05-28 03:37:52 UTC  

ah okay, so it's bullshit and Nitro's a fagguete

2018-05-28 03:38:09 UTC  

I'll go buy the cheaper copper cable

2018-05-28 03:38:14 UTC  

thx

2018-05-28 03:38:23 UTC  

i mean, resistance DOES have an impact on sound, but you're not going to see it

2018-05-28 03:38:26 UTC  

for those cables

2018-05-28 03:38:50 UTC  

No. Nitro is correct, but it doesn't really have an influence on that scale.

2018-05-28 03:39:31 UTC  

The different is so minor it's not worth it. Besides, your average smartphone or computer can power KZ earphones easily.

2018-05-28 03:39:36 UTC  

Difference*

2018-05-28 03:39:57 UTC  

Well, I mean, sound quality wise it's not. For everything else, including the fact that it's just more durable

2018-05-28 03:40:05 UTC  

omg..

2018-05-28 03:40:08 UTC  

Makes less sound when you're moving around

2018-05-28 03:40:39 UTC  

*doubt*

2018-05-28 03:40:49 UTC

2018-05-28 03:41:03 UTC  

I should order some cables to compare

2018-05-28 03:41:03 UTC  

worth noting for y'all, you know how most smartphones have shitty DACs that hiss on low volumes? .. well my Xiaomi Note X4 doesn't do that, it actually has a really good DAC for a phone, seriously

2018-05-28 03:41:07 UTC  

cables are placebo, no cable you find will have the resistance necessary to change the sound unless you're buying etykids or an iem known to have high impedence

2018-05-28 03:41:28 UTC  

Maybe its a matter of better shielding

2018-05-28 03:41:53 UTC  

the Xiaomi Note 4x's dac can actually do 24-bit too

2018-05-28 03:43:12 UTC  

my dad loves his KZ ATEs so much that I had-to repair the cables a few times with a soldering iron, and then buy him more KZ ATEs

2018-05-28 03:43:21 UTC  

@Windatica You're telling me this doesn't make a difference?

2018-05-28 03:43:31 UTC  

he should buy ZST's for that extra V signature

2018-05-28 03:43:52 UTC  

and maybe be able to change the fucking cable

2018-05-28 03:43:52 UTC

2018-05-28 03:44:05 UTC  

@Sdeck37 what the fuck is that abomination??

2018-05-28 03:44:08 UTC  

oh god

2018-05-28 03:44:43 UTC  

is it REAL?

BOI

2018-05-28 03:45:01 UTC  

$500 right there

2018-05-28 03:45:17 UTC  

what sort of fuck-tard thought that was a good idea for an earphone connector

2018-05-28 03:45:26 UTC  

Close, 1250 burger bucks

2018-05-28 03:45:39 UTC
