Nice..what kind of cable did you use?
Where did you get senn adapters?

Those senn adators are Cardas plugs. Check their site for dealers, search in your local area, even available on ebay.

Good times is right, they're available on most sites that carry Cardas parts. Its also Vampire wire. Oh and just to let you know its a tight fit into the plugs... VERY tight fit into the plugs if you use vampire/jenalabs/anything below 22ga. Good luck

wow there are some great looking cable here !
Cyberspider, where did you get those switchcraft mini plugs ?

Here are my diy cables, I'm in the process of recabling my guitar rack mount.

First cable build, for my first audio related mod! Xpost from: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/pos...4/index45.html

Ooh Ooh Grado mod.. I finished this up today courtesy of JLai. Recabled and rescreened SR60. I really like them especially after nonstop listening to senns'

Anthony - Excellent photography!

Recabled with 4 strands of 26AWG cotton insulated copper wire (SOLID CORE, litz braided). Word of advice, never, ever use it again for flexible application...the cotton insulation unravels and the wire fatigues (since its solid core) and you have a useless cable afterwards. As well, the insulation, because its easy to unravel-too easy, the wires may develop a short at a point where the insulation is gone. Also, kudos to those that do UE recables...the ffing UE connectors are a PITA to solder onto the wire...DON'T ATTEMPT UNLESS YOU HAVE A CRAPLOAD OF TIME. *!^%$*%!$*!$%*&^!$*^!$*

Anyhow, I'll let the pics speak for themselves.

















Yeah, I was pretty pissed at this point…..this really sucks. Trip back to UE imminent, my third time back, maybe they’ll let me upgrade to a better pair?

Brendan

Oh sh!t!!!!!

happened to my friend's ue tft10's too. I assume its common. My suggestion is to use a fingernail to separate the connectors first and wiggle it out slowly. That sucks man, good luck with ue and the replacement/and hopeful upgrade

Emailed them, this happened to the two previous pairs I had as well They really need to mold it as one piece, not two. Dunno whats going to happen with the return...Logitech sucks with me (and this was before Logitech acquired UE).

well lets hope that logitech hasn't replaced UE's division, just absorbed them because I've had some problems with logitech in the past.
