I just finished my first Grado recable on my SR-225.

The cable is XLO 26awg solid-core 6N 99.9999% pure copper in Teflon. It sounds wonderful, and I love the "pretty-in-pink" look (it's actually violet, but who cares).

The 1/4" plug is by Yarbo (same as my favorite RCA), it's the only 1/4" plug I found that actually uses Teflon dielectric, all the rest are hard plastic and not nearly as nice.
