Sony 4.4mm Balanced Cables
Sony has introduced a new line of high tech audio players and amplifiers using an industry first 4.4mm balanced TRRRS "Penta" type connector (yes that's right- 5 connections on this one). We have cables for these in stock ready to ship. This type of connector, sought to be standardized by Sony and others within JEITA, fits the new Sony PHA-2A, TA-ZH1ES, NW-WM1Z, WM-ZX300 and NW-WM1A.
To order a headphone cable with this connector, go to the headphone cable page and find your headphones. Next select the Sony 4.4mm connector from the drop-down. If you cannot find the headphones or 4.4mm connector, email us.
To order adapters for the Sony 4.4mm connector, select from the drop downs above. Adapters are about 1 foot long give or take a small amount.
Wire Selection.
You may choose a cable with Standard or OCC silver-plated copper wire with Teflon insulation. Standard wire is military/aerospace quality silver plated copper with Teflon insulation, 24 AWG twisted pair. The OCC cable uses a costly and premium wire formed of specially processed silver plated copper, with Teflon insulation and is of high purity, "5N" or better. It is approximately 28 AWG. This high purity wire sounds great and has been specially selected by us for its electrical and mechanical properties. Both types of wire are very flexible, can be bunched, and are durable.

Sleeving.
Our cables are fully sleeved with a soft, cloth-like black fabric covering.
As always, feel free to email us for any needs you have for this type of cable. We normally respond to emails in a day or so.
