NewFantasia 4.4mm 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.

I didn’t think this would be such a nice cable, thought it would be cheap and stiff but i just needed a quick solution to provide more power to my headphones however im now pleasantly surprised, i thought the wood bits would be gimmicky but they feel surprisingly sturdy like real wood, the entire cable is flexible and nicely braided, it doesnt try to keep one shape at all, just drapes over my setup going wherever i ask it to, the 3.5mm ends also have a very perfect fit Compared to the stock cable on my arya stealths which try to coil up and have a not as nice rubber feel, these are incredible and will be on my aryas permanently now.

These work great!

The cable works and feels great, but man, this is a hefty fella. Definitely not ideal for a portable setup as this cable can and will pull your portable devices off the edge of any surface you leave the cable hanging from. Otherwise, no issues. Feels durable, premium, and sounds exactly as expected.

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.
