Not sure if this is a hot or cold take, but I was thinking about how much I like the HD 600 series cables, love Audeze cables, and loathe Hifiman cables. So yeah, what stock cables do you all think are really good or really bad for whatever reason?

    Stax cables for the best. Their headphone cables are very flexible and durable.

    For the worst? Hifiman cables. Cable material feels nasty, and right-angled plug is questionable for desktop use.

    For IEMs the Sony EX800ST stock cable was the worst. Didn’t like memory wire for the ears, cable felt too thin and flimsy, and 1.6 meters is too long for an IEM cable.
