There shouldn't be. Since they are no good, what harm is there in opening up the headphones, they are dynamic, so it shouldn't be too difficult to solder new cables. Do you have any buds or iems that you don't use, but its got a strong cable? If so, you should use those, its not going to change the sound. The guage of the wire is to worry if you want to send a lot of current though, but for headphones, its very minimal. So, good luck, if you can't do it maybe I or another headfier can do it for a small fee.

So if I attempt to splice them, a noticeable reduction in sound quality??
The recable sound expensive, I think I could upgrade for that price.
