My unboxing on the cable, looks nice and sound is coming along, cable is soft and the cable requires burn in. This is a wire that does not produce any sound when rubber against your clothing as some cables I have tried does that. For the price, worth a try and it is 8 braided.

Since the cable is soft, there is no wire that wraps around your ear.

(1) at the current market prices for copper and silver, and considering the price offered for this cable, it is highly unlikely that the amount of silver used in these cables will add any value or enhance performance (if you believe that silver does so).
(2) note that most third party cable manufacturers mention the purity of the copper used in the wire to attract the folks that hold to the premise that cable construction impacts the sound of their IEM's. These guys are (a) using high purity copper and missing a marketing opportunity by not pointing it out, or (b) not using high purity copper and trying to slip one past you. Again, based o the low price it is likely to be the latter.
(3) as a replacement cable for inexpensive IEM's (which probably came with an inexpensive mass market cable) this is likely a good choice. While it looks very nice in the photos, and has the appearance of a custom made IEM cable, at this price this is not likely to be an upgrade for the cables on most mid-tier and above IEM's.

Good information. I have noticed that the product descriptions provided by the Drop writers/editors are frequently incorrect, or at least ambiguous. Not sure we should have to interpret the descriptions to know what we are purchasing.

zombywoofYeah, I agree. A lot of drops audio descriptions have gotten really poor. Many of the chi-fi/budget selections are filled with buzz words on how great they are, but there's not a single measurement, graph, or specification to really back it up.

WARNING -
I purchased this cable through linsoul's website and IT IS NOT BALANCED.
The negative connections on my cable are shorted, which shorts whatever amplifier it's plugged into and can cause damage.
You can notice this issue as clipping in the sound.
Linsoul has refunded me the money for the cable but will not compensate for any damage the cable has caused to equipment.
Unless you have a multimeter and can verify your cable isn't shorted, I would highly recommend that you DO NOT BUY this cable.

s.beckmanI think it depends on what termination you chose.
The 2.5mm I bought and just received is working perfectly on ES100's balanced output.

BangNarajI would check with a multimeter to be sure. I thought mine was working fine too until it started to clip really badly after a few days use at medium-high volume.
If you're using an ES100 or any other amp that says it's balanced, you need to two negative pins to be isolated from each other on your 2.5 TRRS or your XLR.

Would one of these 2 pins work for the edc 3's? Are there any better alternatives? Thanks!

Could Tripowin, or someone who owns this cable measure its resistance? As that's pretty much the only technical characteristic of a cable that can have any effect on sound (due to channel imbalance or the headphones seeing a higher impedance source+cable combo).
Here's how to measure resistance:
A digital multimeter will do. Just set it to ohms, put one probe on the tip of the 3.5mm jack and the other on the positive pin of the left wire (channel) at the IEM end, record the reading. Then place one probe on the lowest section of the jack (ground), and the other on the other pin at the IEM end and record the reading. Do the same for the right wire (channel) - from the middle section of the jack to the positive pin, and the lowest section of the jack (ground) to the other pin. Thanks

mttuI am blown away at the fact that people have not tested the ohm rating on these cables.

mttuFirst, resistance is not the only thing that matters, it is just the simplest characteristic of the wire which draws attention to it.
Second, digital multimeters are next to useless in measuring resistance of short pieces of wire. You will be measuring resistance of your probing wires and resistance of probe-to-wire contact more than anything. Only thing multimeter is good for is to show if there is some kind of obvious defect in wiring (bad solder joint etc) increasing resistance to dozens/hundreds of ohms or more.
Now, if one had a couple thousands feet of this wire in a spool, than this task would become realistic. Using specialized equipment and/or 4-wire measuring method helps too. Still meaningless though for estimating wire's effect on sound.

ZaborgZaloogPictures are swapped. I ordered the wrong one based on the picture also. Kind of upsetting.

daredevil_kkNo it won't. The Etys have a deeper recesses hole on the iem side and they have a notch to prevent the cable from spinning. Because of the deeper recession the actual connector on the cable will not completely connect. They only way to enable the cable the to work would be to trim about 1 mm of the blastic housing around the terminal on the cable.

daredevil_kkER4's cables are pretty hard to find.....from what I've found. I've ony seen their official cables and they cost around $60-$65 where I live.

Anyone know if the recessed or regular 2pin is best for the BLON-03?

ScientificHooliganthe recessed does not work. I thought the QDC cable was the correct one, but apparently you want the 2 pin exposed. So, I'll be returning the qdc cable for the 0.78mm 2 pin

ZionysRecessed 2 pin will work on blon, just that it might be a little loose since the "tightening" part isn't actually being used
