Your money would be much better spent if you put that towards a better pair of headphones.
What would be a better pair, staying around the $500 range?

Of course, the HD650 is a great headphone, upgrade the cable if you want! I guess I should ask what you are after by upgrading the cable? Do you want a different sound? Or do you want the existing sound to be better? If so, in what way?
I just think it's ridiculous to spend more than 1/2 of what the headphone costs on a friggin' cable. IMO your money would be much better spent exploring different headphones, which will offer much more difference than any cable will ever make. Who knows, you may find a set of 'phones that suit your taste much better than the 650.

If you need something local, just get some 60/40 rosin core solder from Radio Shack. If you want to buy Cardas solder, you should buy from an authorized Cardas dealer to be sure you are actually getting Cardas solder and not some crap solder that someone repackaged and sold on eBay as Cardas solder.
Anyone compared the BH Crack + Speedball with Woo WA3?
Price for BH Crack with Speedball package = $279 + $115 + $79 + $6 = $479 (not including the labour to build it up)
Price for Woo WA3 = $520
The prices are similar, but the WA3 definitely has a way better metal finishing and appearance. Now, how about the sound and synergy?
what is the 79$ + 6$ for ?
Upgrading the power cable make a difference sound wise?
