TakeFive is a great shop... I use them quite a bit ... its nice too as their prices are in Canadian dollars and I live in the US, so its a bit cheaper. Shipping is also really fast.

thanks for the correction, I misunderstood. I was under the impression the connectors were bare brass.

Good to know. The Senn. cable is PET, so no worries there. So I'll have to remember to use this sleeving strictly for floor runs, or cabling that is stationary.
Thanks for the heads up.
The problem with fiberglass is if it 'sheds' those little 'splinters' of fiberglass can get into the air and be breathed in. Causings lots of problems for your lungs! That is why when you work with fiberglass insulation, you ALWAYS wear a face mask, as to not get the stuff into your lungs. You also should wash your exposed skin with cold water (to get as much off) without opening up the pores, to get some in the skin...causing irritation.
I am not positive, but I believe breathing in too much fiberglass 'splinters' or whatever has been 'linked' to lung cancer. I get it just gets stuck in your lungs, and causes an infection of some type.
My suggestion is to simply just not use that stuff indoors. I bet it is for automotive applications, like in the engine bay, where it will insulate the wire and no one is breathing it in.

A 1/4 neutrik locking female to 1/8 mini right angle neutrik. cable is a 3 conductor braid using teflon insulated silver platted copper. It is covered with headshrink. The heatshrink over the neutrik mini could be better placed...

Hi guys, Im thinking about recabling my newly acquired HD 600s, and was wondering if i can get the plug in connectors anywhere? What kind of cable do you guys suggest i use? I have some shielded carol cable, but so far, I think there's better out there.
Thanks!
Jeff

You get the connectors a couppe ways. For many if not most DIYers, they'll just order some stock cables off the sennheiser website and just use the connectors from there. As far as the other stuff goes, it really depends on what you want/like.
