No one is paying my inquiring mind any mind on the regular hp forum, so let me address this here.

Can anyone comment on the quality differences between a stock Senn HD-25-1 I/II, a HD-25-1 with the APS portable cable or the APS V3 cable?

Obviously, I'm thinking of enhancing my HD-25-1 again.

HeadphoneAddict had our V3 cable on his HD25's until he sold them off. He would be a good person to ask. We have sold very many HD25's, but since 98% of our orders is done through email I wouldn't be able to tell you who ordered to get some opinions.

Thanks,
Alex

2 Sony MDR-R10 headphones. There is a very interesting story behind one of these which I will take time to write up and post both on here and on the home page of APureSound, but for now how about just some pictures. Both have Super Nylon sleeving and a Furutech 1/4in plug.

If you have to ask, you don't need one

The Furutech plug uses higher quality materials in the plug itself in comparison to the standard Neutrik 1/4in. Both are great connectors, but the Furutech is simply better.

Thanks,
Alex

you guys are no fun...

ALEX!

The V3 balanced cable you sold me is great. At first I was using it with the HD650, but it turns out I just don't like HD650. But, I love the HD600 balanced out of the Apogee mini-DAC. Balanced gives the HD600 the speed and attack of the RS-1, with crisper highs and instrument separation, but with the added soundstage of Sennheisers.

Thanks!
