Here is a pair of Sony MDR-V6's I did. 24gauge silver plated copper wire covered in Teflon. Then sleeved in black nylon monofilament. I must say I love how these turned out. The sound quality is like day and night because of the crappy stock cable.

Has anyone else recabled their V6's? I am interested to see because I haven't seen anyone yet. I would be interested in how someone else did theirs. Either way pictures of mine below:

Default My first Litz attempt...

2.5 feet, silver plated blue teflon coated stranded copper, Neutrik plugs, 1/8" white techflex.

Still debating whether or not to heatshrink...



I love how flexible this cable is.

DH labs Bl-Ag cable, pure silver, tape wrap dielectric, balanced. (sold by partsconnexion.com, same conductors etc used in DH labs "Revelation")
Neutrik ProFi RCA's
Cardas solder

few words about sound... Very good detail and timing. Also very clear with no noise etc. It is superb cable, nothing more to say

I like the minimal use of heat shrink on Ronstah's cables. I don't like it when the whole plug is covered. Plugs look good. They shouldn't be covered up.

I agree, I'm going to start using less.
