Enter the JenaLabs 18 AWG (larger wire) Cryo Ultra wire which ALWAYS adds midrange and bottom end response to a headphone. The last time I re cabled a W5000 I used the smaller 22G stuff and while a improvement for the W5000 I felt it was not enough. So I am going to try the 18G stuff here very soon and report back later.

Ken

thanks ken. will look forward to it.
