Hi Drew. I'm really happy with the other cables I have from you, and I'm tossing up the idea of balancing my HF-2s so thought I'd check with you first. Is this something you can do, and what would you recommend? Cheers!

I paid 25 bucks for this phone, which makes it stupidly good value. Best Bang for the buck phone. Quite comfy so you can use it for quite a long time. Sounds is quite awesome, not 200$ awesome...

Not a problem. I would go with the Black Dragon for sure. And go with the new Version 2. I have not had a chance to advertise this, but you might as well go with the new design. Shoot me an email drew@moon-audio.com and let us know the lengh needed and termination either Neutrik or Furutech XLRs and we'll get you taken care of.

It's better
The old design was a braided geometry with no shield using Litz copper conductors. You can find the details Here
The new version is:
The cable uses a 4 x 21.5 AWG Teflon insulated stranded conductors using pure single crystallized UP-OCC pure copper with 7N purity 99.99998%.
Each conductor is made up of a special varying size stranding geometry. The copper stranding is mixed with Kevlar stranding to reinforce the conductor. Making it stronger overall and less prone to failure due to the harsh constant flexing a headphone cable receives.
The conductors are then surrounded by cotton and then a layer of foil shield and then a 100% coverage braided shield and placed in a polyethylene jacket for further protection.
The Version 2 is quieter than the Version 1 with no micro phonics.
