I'm going to be recabling my friends' headphones since the cable is bung. They're K518's and I was wondering.. How important is shielding? I was thinking about just getting some decent OFC flexible speaker cable but.. they're portable. Is my friend going to suffer constant "deet deet deet deet deet deet" from nearby cellphones while he's walking along the streets? I just cant find any decent shielded cable in the area. I picked up some decent cable but its got writing all over it which looks yucky -_-

Don't worry about shield on headphone cables and definitely don't use speaker cable - too thick.
