My HiFiMan HE-500 won't fit my Fiio E17

I just the two products today and don't seem to be able to fit the headphone to the amplifier, I think it's the 1/4" jack on the headphone. Would someone please help me out, or give me a quick fix, i live in SRI Lanka and it will take me a while to get a new cable.

P.S. feel free to move this where ever, I'm posting off my phone and wasn't sure where exactly to post. :P

Thanks a lot. This should solve the problem, but will there be a difference in sound quality with it?

Hi,

 

No there wont, this shouldn't effect the sound at all, it will only make the termination a 1/8th not a 1/4th.

PS, Let me know how you like the HE500s.
