ElephantAudio 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 You seem at ease with DIY cables, does it really make a difference? I'm Fiio L2 10cm to connect my Zune HD to cMoy portable and was looking at this Hisoundaudio 3.5mm to 3.5mm Golden Inter Cable (24K golden plated jack) http://www.cafr.ebay.ca/itm/380384971382?s...984.m1423.l2649, when someone told me not spent money for nothing since cooper is cooper!

nekatrall 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 high sound is just copper, the jack being gold plated is normal to prevent patina/rust yeah for some mods it does make a difference in the sound but most obvious difference comes when different material is used Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElephantAudio 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 Can you elaborate on this''most obvious difference comes when different material is used'', would it be worth to invest in a different cable then Fiio L2 for better sound or useless with equipment I have?

nekatrall 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 i always say dont waste money for me i cant hear much difference between the cables used between source and amp, some people can tell the most obvious difference is when cables to your earphones is changed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElephantAudio 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Ok ,which applies only on changeable earphone-headphone cables! What's those specs we often find on premium cables "Ultra Pure Silver Plated Oxygen Free Copper (UP SPOFC) and Ultra Pure Oxygen Free Copper (UPOFC)" as these:http://www.audiovisualonline.co.uk/product/1516/van-damme-stereo-3.5mm-jack-to-jack-cable/?source=aw&utm_source=AffiliateWindow&awc=3586_1343354986_887cd275f986ed48220c26b040c9ac67 Edited July 27, 2012 by ElephantAudio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nekatrall 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 just the purity of copper/silver and how it is processed oxygen free so the copper does not oxidise(rust) but most current audio cables are oxygen free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElephantAudio 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 so it's strickly a marketing ftool since it's a fact for all audio cables? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nekatrall 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 could be not too sure but there are cables that are cheap which oxidise easily so i guess its a cable specification Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
