Balanced cable for HD600
Hi. I've just got the Sennheiser HD600. I plan to balance them, but I want them to retain the same sound signature that have as stock, just faster. What cable would you suggest?

Re-terminate the stock cable with balanced/XLR plugs then.

^ what he said, or buy a HD650 stock cable and re-terminate that as its bigger and easier to work with

Thanks for the hint. Are there better solutions? How much do other cables improve the sound? (I see a lot of people buying custom cables for their Sennheisers)

Are you planning to upgrade to a balanced amp anytime soon? It looks to me you are using only portable amps atm.

Yes. I'm gathering the money for good balanced DAC and amp to build a balanced HD600 rig. Your answer is great since I thought I would have to shell out a lot of money for a balanced cable, but it may not be the case.
