Replacement headphone cables?
djdube525:
Any recommendations out there for headphone cables?
I'm increasingly getting annoyed at the stock, long as crap cables that came with my Oppo PM-3. The Oppos take standard plugs so not a big issue.
An important consideration... I'm a frugal SOB, so options like Blue Dragon cables from moon-audio, which I'm sure are fantastic, are quite a bit more than I want to spend. Curious if these on Amazon or Lavricables would be reasonable options... I was leaning to stick with copper though.
Other options but skeptical...
- Option 1
- Option 2

Hello djdube525,
My favourite topic - cables! :)
Doubtful if these are really 6n or 8N cables.
But maybe something like this? http://www.oyaide.com/ENGLISH/AUDIO/products_category/headphone_earphone_cbl/pg521.html
I see their cables for around $200 and at least you will get what you pay for. https://www.amazon.com/OYAIDE-HPC-35SRH-1-3m-Headphone-cable/dp/B00A71ADP4
PCOCC I think.
I've been itching to get cable upgrades for my Sennheisers but haven't gotten the chance yet.

. Pangea will do just fine for headphones. Even the generic cables at your local music store [ Gar Center] will suffice. Easy to try first. You may be surprised.

I ran across a company called Periapt Cable and thought it's cheap enough
to give it a try. On my Sennheiser 598SR the cable is a nice improvement.
Messed up and got a 3.5 plug so have to use a 3.5 to 1/4" adapter that I had
around so not sure of i'm getting all they can do. It has sparked an interest in
seeing if I can do better though.
