Balanced Cable for Hifiman Headphones
This 4.4 mm balanced cable is built as a direct replacement for Hifiman HE4XX and the latest HE-400i models that use dual 3.5 mm plugs. It is intended for listeners who want a sturdier, silver-plated lead without changing their headphone termination.
1.8 Metre Length and Eight-Core Construction
The cable runs 1.8 m and uses eight braided strands, each made from 19 silver-plated cores, giving a total diameter of 3.6 mm. This provides enough reach for desktop use while the multi-core geometry reduces handling noise compared with thinner stock leads.
Dual 3.5 mm Headphone Connectors
The dual 3.5 mm male plugs fit the current HE4XX and revised HE-400i headphones, but they will not seat in the older HE-400i revision that uses 2.5 mm jacks. Buyers with the earlier dual 2.5 mm version cannot use this cable.

Questions about this item
Will this 4.4 mm balanced cable work with the older HE-400i that uses 2.5 mm plugs?
No, the dual 3.5 mm male connectors only fit the latest HE-400i and the HE4XX; the older 2.5 mm version is not compatible.
How can I verify the 4.4 mm balanced connection is active after plugging in?
Check your source device shows a balanced output path and listen for a noticeably lower noise floor compared to a single-ended cable.
What comes in the box and do I need any extra adapters?
The package contains the 1.8 m 8-core silver-plated cable with 4.4 mm male and dual 3.5 mm male ends; no additional adapters are required for supported headphones.
