Fake XLO cables from China

I would thus guess you are a all cables sound the same camp.

No no, not at all. There’s a clear audible difference between gauges, and between geometries that considerably change inductance or capacitance.
However, between cables with resistance kept at no more than 1% of the lowest impedance reached by a speaker, inductance below .2uH/ft, and capacitance below 50pF/ft, an audible difference has not been proven.

There are also fakes being sold on Audiogon. 
Buyer beware!

I have amassed quite a few fake cables in order to compare them to genuine real cables. In most cased they have a somewhat similar sound signature but not quite the same. While they DEFINITELY DO NOT sound the same as the real deal they give a lot of the sound of the real deal at a huge discount. Interestingly the China cables that were some off brand were not nearly as good sounding as the imitation ones in general. The closest fakes I have to the real deal are the Tara Labs which may actually be the real deal. The Siltech fakes are darker than the real G5 with a lot less detail.  The AQ with DBS sound very good but different from the real deal and the Cardas Clear fake sounds fantastic but again a bit different from the real deal.  The Nordost Odin fake is simply amazing!  The real problem is that if you are expecting a particular sound you should expect something a little different. 

If you want the real deal sound buy the real deal from a verified source. If you want to experiment then go for it.

Did you have to pay Trump tariffs on those cables?

What is the price of the fakes compared to the originals?
Do they have the same appearance, look, and have the same wordage? The OP suggested they did!
