TOPPING TCT2 XLR to 6.35mm TRS Cable Review
A TOPPING balanced cable from a 3-pin male XLR to a 6.35mm TRS, a pair per the store title, with a 75CM option at $67.15 and a 125CM option sold out when the page was read. The page text lists core counts, a resistance printed two ways and an 8MM OD. It suits buyers who need that XLR to TRS run.

Our verdict
A fit for a buyer who needs a balanced cable from a 3-pin male XLR to a 6.35mm TRS in 75CM and values a specification section with core counts and an OD. Look elsewhere if you need the 125CM length, which was sold out, a plug description or an in-the-box list. The main caveat is the page's own inconsistencies: two resistance figures and two spellings of the 0.08MM wire size.
- Best for
- Buyers who need a balanced 3-pin male XLR to 6.35mm TRS cable in 75CM with wire figures listed.
- Skip if
- You need the 125CM option, which was sold out, or a plug description and an in-the-box list.
Why 3.5/5: The specification figures in the page text lift it; short text with pictures not read for this review, store terms that contradict each other and no independent test checked for this review hold it back.

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 couldn’t verify
- The page text gives conductor resistance as 26.92/KM and as 26. 90/KM (spacing as printed) with no ohm sign, and gives the 180-wire size as 0.08MM in the specification section but 008MM under Details.
- The Details line runs 6N single crystal copper, silver-plated copper, high shielding aluminum foil and a 98% copper shielding rate together in one unclosed parenthesis, so the layout is ambiguous, and the OCC in the store title is not repeated in the page text.
- The description is three pictures that were not read for this review, and the page text gives no length figure beyond the option names.
- HiFiGO's policy pages contradict each other: 30-day returns with a 30% restocking fee in one place, no refund or exchange after 7 days in the FAQ.
- HiFiGO's pages name no company, street address or phone number; the only contact given is [email protected].
- HiFiGO's warranty page excludes cables from returns for hygiene reasons, while its FAQ says a cable can come back in its original condition.
