I love fat cables too Bonthouse!

Thanks for the kind words
It's Canare starquad with a weird kind of Techflex over it. It's thick but very flexible. I love it!
Sound also greatly improved with the recable and the Dynamat mod

Pyrokid, if you ever get a Grado, you'll be amazed at how easy they are, it's crazy!
All you need is some hot water and you're done..!

I used the same for my k81dj's, except it was Mogami Starquad and multifilament.

haha, I had an MS1, and it took me like half an hour to get both cups open.
I probably used the wrong methods, though. (I just grabbed both sides of the cups and pulled until they came apart. it was only after this that I thought there might be an easier way, and I searched for it. Turns out my way was so inconvinient, I couldn't even find one mention of it.)

My first cable



How hard is it to swap out headphone cable on the AKG K518 DJ?
Would like to do something simular so it matches.

Here is a step by step pictorial: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f6/my-...inions-426491/

In short, take off the earpads, unscrew the three screws, then take off cover. Unsolder wires, make a new strain relief (or attempt to reuse the old one), reverse disassembly procedure and you're done.
