I would have to agree.

He does have some extremely fast shipping. Really easy.

Default cable for my HD485



This is the cable i made for my HD 485.
3x26AWG Silver plated copper with teflon insulation, braided. Cardas silver solder. Stereo 3.5 plug is from ELFA, Japanese Daikei Denshi K.K. gold plated (it was pretty expensive so i thought it's good - 4.5€). Another end (to headphones, as u know hd485 have this little hole for 3.5 and there is nowhere you can find suitable plug) is made from cheap 3.5 to 3.5 cable, i cut the plug part out of this rubber thingie and desoldered the ends.

Greets, Ron

You need to upload your pictures somewhere (image shack, photobucket, etc..) We can't read files directly off your hard drive.

Very nice! You just gave me an idea for my Sennheiser HD477's, which use a 2.5mm plug per channel. It's impossible to find a hexagonal 2.5mm plug that fits the hole of the HD4*7 series.

Edwood recommended Photobucket to me and they've been great, just sign up for an account, upload your images, and it will automatically create an image tag that you can cut and paste into your message.
