Thanks for the post
The more affordable Vampire Wired version (OCC 99.9999% pure stranded Copper) should be up later this weekend or Friday. The 20 AWG Vampire wire looks similar to the JenaLabs stuff, its in a clear jacket. I typically try not to sleeve the headphone cable because the sleeving makes a scratchy micro phonic sound whenever it is moved. The Vampire wire is warm and lush sounding.
The 18AWG Cryo cable is up now these are $385 for a 6-foot length more for longer lengths. I understand that the cost will be prohibitive for many. It is a function on the Cryo wires bulk price and of course, the assembly time involved. The headphone cable is a 4 wire flat weave. I understand there might be some that will have hard feelings about the price, please point your browser over to the Jenalabs web site and take a peek at their pricing of the cables they sell using the same wire. The 18G Cryo cable is an option, and that is what I want to provide, the option. Moreover, the Vampire version will be comparable to other headphone aftermarket vendors pricing. This cable (the 18G Cryo cable) is going to provide the limit of audio goodness for the Sennheiser headphone in terms of headphone cable signal degradation and sonic purity. To that end, I will be tackling the internal weakness (the bottleneck) that plagues the HD600, HD650s*. The modded headphone will be ordered with the 18G cable at a slightly reduced price when bought as a package. I will be selling the modded HD600 or 650 with the cable soon.*if everything works the way I am hoping it will work, never a given.
Thanks
