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)

They’re perfectly fine if you have compatible headphones. They also carry sound very well. But I have a pair of verisonix n501 that I was gifted and the right headphone is wired opposite for some reason. So you have to pull the right cable out one click for it to work. So if you have the same headphones it recommend looking at different cables.

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.

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.

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 have three of these now. Don't pay hundreds for one cable, these are the balanced cables you need.

Worked great while it lasted, had since october of 24, it is july of 25 and it now causes buzzing, and the sound is cutting out in my headphones. Quality seemed good, but unfortunately it didn't last. Was quite expensive, so I am disappointed.

These work great!

I have only had these for two hours so far. First my equipment: 1. Hifiman Sandara Planner Headphone 2. FiiO BTR7 DAC/AMP (For use in my Home Theater or portability) 3. Schiits Modi DAC with Magni Headphone Amp (Office) Music Taste, Pop (any) / Jazz Fusion / Big Band / Classical I think these cables are better than the cables that came with my Hifiman Sandara. They have cleaned up some of the clipping I was getting with the FiiO BTR7 DAC amp. The sound is not as good as my Schiits DAC system, but quite close. I like to listen to music while moving around my workbench / watching movies on my big screen and BTR7 and these cables allow me to do that with good sound clarity.
