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.

i like that cable...is it stiff or easy to bend? sometimes the thinner cables tend to be the stiffest...

i'm thinking about re-cabling my sr-60 to make them more portable-friendly (yeah yeah, i know some of you are wondering why the sr-60...but it's one of my favorite all-time headphones)...while i won't spend a lot for the cable. it's nice to see how they might look with a thin cable...
