TOPPING TCR2 RCA Cable Review
A TOPPING RCA cable listed in 10CM, 25CM, 75CM and 125CM options, each named as one pair, from $39. The page text describes a soft X-9 wire for 10CM and gives SGP-222 wire figures under a >10CM heading. It suits buyers who want RCA leads in a set length.
Our verdict
A fit for a buyer who wants an RCA cable in a set length from 10CM to 125CM and values the wire figures the page text gives for the SGP-222 wire. Look elsewhere if you need one wire description that covers every length, a described plug, or figures from outside the store. The main caveat is that the store title gives 6N single crystal copper while the 10CM text names 6N/OCC and 6N/OCCS conductors.
- Best for
- Buyers who want an RCA cable in 10CM, 25CM, 75CM or 125CM and value the wire figures on the page.
- Skip if
- You need one wire description for every length, a described plug, or figures from outside the store.
Why 3.4/5: Short page text, with its pictures not read for this review, holds it back, as do the store's own terms contradicting each other and no independent test checked for this review.
TOPPING's TCR2 is an RCA cable with four options, from TCR2-10CM at $39 to TCR2-125CM at $79, each named as one pair. The page text says the 10CM option uses a soft X-9 wire with 6N/OCC and 6N/OCCS conductors, and it adds a second wire, SGP-222, under a >10CM heading, built from 6N single crystal copper silver-plated wires and 6N single crystal copper wires, with a conductor resistance of 26.9Ω/KM.
Specifications

| SGP-222 wire (>10CM) | 8 x 0.16MM 6N single crystal copper silver-plated wires + 180 x 0.08MM 6N single crystal copper |
| Conductor resistance | 26.9Ω/KM (SGP-222 wire) |
| Square number | 0.533MM2 x 2 / 19AWG x 2 (SGP-222 wire) |
| OD | 8MM (SGP-222 wire) |
Options and pricing
Four options are listed, all orderable when the page was read: TCR2-10CM at $39, TCR2-25CM at $49, TCR2-75CM at $69 and TCR2-125CM at $79, each named as 1 pair. The store's option field is headed color, but its values are lengths. The page text puts the X-9 wire under 10CM and the SGP-222 wire under a >10CM heading, so the 10CM option may use a different wire from the others.
How it compares
The TOPPING TCT1 6.35mm TRS to 6.35mm TRS Balanced Copper Cable OCC (Pair) starts From $49 against From $39 here, and its spec line lists the same 8 pieces of 0.16MM and 180 pieces of 0.08MM core, but it is named for 6.35mm TRS ends rather than RCA. The SKW WG20-01 Silver-plated High-purity Copper Conductor 3.5mm Jack To 2RCA Cable starts From $49.99 and is named for a 3.5mm jack end with 2RCA. The TCR2 is the one named only as an RCA cable, in set lengths from 10CM.
Shipping, returns and warranty
HiFiGO sells from hifigo.com and says every order leaves its warehouse in China, usually 1-3 business days after it is placed, and says its delivery times are estimates, not promises. Its shipping policy gives the United States 1-2 weeks (about 10 days on average) by Priority and 6-10 days by Premium, both with duties and taxes prepaid by the store; Canada 2-3 weeks; the United Kingdom 1-2 weeks; and Australia 10-15 days. Express couriers (DHL, UPS, FedEx) take 3-7 days, but then the buyer pays any duties and taxes. No shipping page names New Zealand, PO boxes are not accepted, and the free-shipping thresholds differ between the store's own pages, so check the cart. One of its two shipping pages adds that a lost parcel on an order above $50 gets only a 50% refund. A US buyer reported a $40 tariff charge in August 2025, after which HiFiGO said it had added a customs notice at checkout.
Read the return terms before you order. The homepage advertises 7-day returns. Both of HiFiGO's policy pages offer a 7-day dead-on-arrival cover (a replacement or a full refund, with the return postage refunded) and also describe 30-day returns, but a request made 7 to 30 days after delivery loses 30% of the MSRP as a restocking fee (10% more if the packaging is incomplete), plus shipping both ways and duties, and the FAQ on the same pages says there is no refund or exchange once 7 days have passed. One version recommends reselling an opened product locally. Custom IEMs and custom cables cannot be returned, no return address is published, and buyers describe sending items back to China.
Cables and adapters get three months of warranty from the order date, against one year for DACs, amps and IEMs; a note on the same page also excludes cables from returns for hygiene reasons, while the FAQ says a cable can come back in its original condition. HiFiGO decides between repair and replacement and the buyer pays the shipping. Claims go to [email protected], the only contact the store lists: its pages name no company, street address or phone.
On Trustpilot, HiFiGO had 4.6 out of 5 from 378 reviews when we checked on 2026-10-28 (91% five-star, 5% one-star), and it had replied to about 75% of negative reviews; Trustpilot notes the store has not invited customers to review recently. The one-star reviews mostly concern the short return window and the deductions on returns, items listed in stock that turned out back-ordered, slow email support and a tariff charge on a US delivery in 2025. HiFiGO says its products are genuine and come in the brands' retail packaging; it does not claim to be an authorized dealer.
What we liked
- Four options from 10CM to 125CM, each named as one pair and orderable when the page was read, priced $39 to $79
- The page text gives core counts for both wires: 21 cores of 0.06MM OCCS and 40 of 0.05MM OCC for X-9, and 8 and 180 wires for SGP-222
- For the SGP-222 wire the page text gives 26.9Ω/KM, 0.533MM2 x 2 / 19AWG x 2 and an 8MM OD
Worth noting
- The store title says 6N single crystal copper, but the 10CM text names 6N/OCC and 6N/OCCS conductors
- The page text gives no resistance, square number or OD figures for the 10CM X-9 wire
- The page text describes no plug beyond the store title's gold-plated RCA wording and gives no in-the-box list
- The pictures on the page were not read for this review, so any detail that sits only in them is absent here
Questions before you buy
What do the four TCR2 options cost?
TCR2-10CM at $39, TCR2-25CM at $49, TCR2-75CM at $69 and TCR2-125CM at $79, each named as 1 pair and orderable when the page was read.
What wire does the page describe?
For 10CM, a soft X-9 wire with 6N/OCC and 6N/OCCS conductors, 21 cores of 0.06MM OCCS and 40 of 0.05MM OCC. Under a >10CM heading, SGP-222 wire with an inner core of 8 x 0.16MM 6N single crystal copper silver-plated wires + 180 x 0.08MM 6N single crystal copper, 26.9Ω/KM, 0.533MM2 x 2 / 19AWG x 2 and an 8MM OD.
Does the page claim a sound effect?
The page text says the X-9's 0.06MM and 0.05MM cores are meant to make mid and high frequencies sharper and details more prominent. It gives no measurement, so this is a claim only.
Where does HiFiGO ship from, and how long does it take?
From its warehouse in China, usually 1-3 business days after the order. The shipping policy gives 1-2 weeks to the US by Priority (6-10 days by Premium), both with duties and taxes prepaid, 2-3 weeks to Canada, 1-2 weeks to the UK and 10-15 days to Australia. Express couriers take 3-7 days, but the buyer pays any duties.
Can I send it back if I change my mind?
HiFiGO gives 7 days to report an item that arrives dead, damaged or wrong. Its policy also describes 30-day returns, but requests 7 to 30 days after delivery lose 30% of the MSRP plus shipping both ways and duties, and the FAQ on the same page says no refund or exchange after 7 days. Ask [email protected] before you open the box.
What warranty does HiFiGO give on cables?
Three months from the order date for cables and adapters, against one year for DACs, amps and IEMs. HiFiGO chooses repair or replacement and the buyer pays the shipping. Claims go to [email protected].

What we couldn’t verify
- The store title says 6N Single Crystal Copper, but the 10CM text names 6N/OCC and 6N/OCCS conductors; single crystal copper appears only in the second wire block, under a >10CM heading, which this review reads as the 25CM, 75CM and 125CM options.
