Hi
I was wondering if a recabeling of the Shure to models was possible ??

I know this would make a lot of shure owners happy, lots of people have complained about Shures cabeling....

I would love to do that but would need the connectors that plug into the IEMs.

I am a total noob I thougth it was a soldering, that connected the cable to the IEM ??

If you want to you can borrow my e550, for examination

then you can see if it something that is possible....
maybe by taking the connectors from the Shure cable if that is an option ??

Same problem. I have done a UE recable but it was a drag to have to hack into the prongs to get to the metal prongs to solder the cable to them. Some people just splice into the existing cable but I fell the defeats the purpose of the re cable.
