I've been making braided cables for a while now, but really only for normal full size headphones. Took a shot at an IEM cable this time, wasn't my first take as the last one I did a few months ago ended up breaking the wire at the MMCX connection before I could listen... Thankfully this one turned out good, and I fell in love with this purple-blue wire I found on Aliexpress (which actually changes shades a bit in different lighting). Matches really well with the metal JVC HA-FDX1 in my opinion.

Does anyone have experience sleeving a 2 channel 2 pair cable like Mogami 3106? I want to create a flat cable like the focal utopia or clear and worries the sleeve might billow in the middle

Does it make a difference if I were to use a different(of lower rating/quality) cable for grounding than for audio signals?

For example, LITZ 6N silver plated copper for left & right audio signals and a non-LITZ <6N cable.

Am thinking of making one for my oem as the stock cable died and thought that by doing the above mention might save some bucks.

Will there be any measurable difference?
Thank you.
