I own a pair of the 1 grand price tagged Shure SE 846's and in just a couple of years i managed to have my original short mmcx cables lost then found, snagged during travel, worn out protected rubber layer coating and finally had to retire them and recycle them. I figured i would try some new mmcx Cables that were unbranded but made of silver threads and even Copper as well. Paid a little more for them but was told they were above and beyond anything Shure gave me in my standard supplied cables and accessories. Upon arriving i quickly installed my new cables that were hand made and hand braided. I had a silver made and a pure copper. No left or right emblem on the earphone cable and they did not swivel like the originals. I used them only a few days but honestly couldn't totally distinguish the subtle differences. They sounded good but they didn't STAND OUT like i was told they would. I also found out some copper and silver wire is mostly sold at $1.35 a foot and yet the cables were way more expensive then materials used to make them. I totally get it.. Hand crafted and time means higher prices. For me i really couldn't tell any differences between Shure and Unbranded hand made or even other brand cables by Audio equipment that is World Renowned. They look cool and pretty sick to everyone that sees me using them. However i ran into issues with those cables that i didn't have with licensed SHURE Cables especially made for my specific 846's. Little things like shorting out or crackling, even with amplifiers and other audio gadgets. So i returned to SHURE product cables which i should of done from day one. I got caught up on the GOTTA HAVE PURE SILVER cables or upgraded ones that will take my music to Higher enjoyments beyond CD quality and enhance my 846's capabilities in that i would be hearing them at a level of clarity that Shure brnad just couldn't match. Well i found out many Dollars later that these Earbuds are SICK on their own and produce great sound on their own. They stand alone in the field of earbuds and unrivaled to most people that own a pair. One step down from Custom fitting buds that professionals use. But the 846's can be custom made for your ears as well. And mine are and after everything i have gone through the 846's are Rock solid in performance and using these original Shure mmcx cables have been the best experience for myself in the 29 dollar price range. They stand up and have proven in my experience that they are just as great sounding as the 200 dollar cables are. Above 200 bucks i cannot say cause i never went that high.. but if your looking for a replacement cable for your Shure earbuds you CANNOT get a better deal and better sound at 29 dollars. The original cables do what they were intended to do, and that's supply the owner's of Shure earbuds a high quality cable that provides the excellence that these earbuds demand. Yes there are cheaper made cables available in USA and in Eastern Counties like Japan and China from 8 bucks to 30 bucks and then higher prices for the same made material cables. Everyone has an opinion on their cables and how much better they are than stock or brand name cables. Custom Cables have this mystic hora about them and look higher quality which is attractive to the eye and the title of CUSTOM MADE just gives you a warm feeling like I got the good stuff now.. Well i could only hear tiny subtle differences that most wouldn't even recognize. I am a music enthusiast ever since my first boom box i got in the 70's as a child. Music is my thing and i love playing and making it. But listening to music is my passion. That passion is fulfilled by using SHURE original brand cables that were made for my specific 846's and they get the job done while providing me with endurance and clarity and a well made product. Look no further for a great cable. This original one will give you everything you need without paying the High prices that custom cables are known for. Unless your a professional with money to burn and ears that detect the subtle sound ranges that can be heard in different specific genres of music and your recording and listening back with high end studio equipment, don't waste your time and money on High priced cables because these Shure brand cables will do everything you need them to do and that's all that matters. For the price you pay you will be more than happy to have a good quality product that's proven its worth....Read full review
