I really like the look of that cable. I'm going to have to keep an eye on ebay for some of that sleeving.

Default Sennheiser cable



Sennheiser cable.

It is the first one I got around to completing. I put it together from parts I had around the house. I need to get some red heatshrink to mark the L/R channels.

The cables is made from Oehlbach connectors and Canare Starquad Mini. The cable probably needs to break in a bit, but performance is a bit disappointing. Soundstage is very compressed right now.

In all honesty I think Star Quad have a slight edge of Mogami in the sound quality. Mogami cable is built nicer than Star Quad, IMHO.

Nice job RnB180!

Looks like they were made that way from the factory.

my problem with Mogami was that they use a spiral shield instead of a braided one like Canare does (at least that was the case with the stuff I used). The spiral shield is much more likely to suffer gaps from movement, and that's not appealing to me.

Really nice color combo with the purple S.Q./Carbon T.F.. I would have never thought that that combo would look that good.

Nice cable. I really like those switchcraft connectors. Where did you pick those up at?
