Very good quality cables
Zeskit kindly sent me a couple of these cables for
review. I think they are very good; the
materials are high-quality and they are well made.
The cables are nicely presented in a smart box (which may be
slight overkill for a headphone cable) and look very nice themselves. The straight plug is very nicely finished in
whichever colour you chose; I have silver and dark grey which both look very
smart. It has a step-shape which enables it to fit a lot of socket designs. The right-angle plug is robust plain black
plastic. Both plugs have a very solid
feel with good strain relief and gold plating on the contacts and they slide
very nicely into and out of all the sockets I have tried. The cable is sheathed in a ridged plastic which
is nicely flexible and doesn't tangle much and which has very little friction
noise when in use.
Whether these cables will transform the sound of your
headphones is debatable; I have used them to connect my Hifiman Supermini
player to Cleer DJ High-Definition headphones, which is a pretty good quality
combination. The cables certainly do a
very good job, but I can't really say that they improve the sound massively - they
are probably more a part of a sort of Dave Brailsford package of "aggregation
of marginal gains." However, they are very good quality
cables which will certainly do a good job and should last very well. Recommended.
