I think I'm going to go ahead and proceed with a recable on my SR-80is.
I think i've narrowed it down to the following components
- Neutrik NYS231BG 3.5 Stereo Mini plug Cryo Treated
- Mogami 2534 Neglex Cryo Treated
This is a quick paint image of how I'm planning on recabling the cans.
Although this all sounds good in theory, I've got a couple of questions about this whole plan...
[size=x-small] 1) Is the Mogami 2534 a good cable, maybe better or at least par with Grado stock (4 conductor) cable?[/size]
[size=small] 2) What size of nylon sleeving should I buy to cover the wire between the plug and the Y-connector for a good tight fit (labelled "nylon sleeve #1" on above diagram)[/size]
[size=x-small] 3) What size of nylon sleeving should I buy to cover the wire between each headphone driver and the Y-connector for a good tight fit (labelled "nylon sleeve #2" on above diagram)[/size]
[size=x-small] 4) What size of shrink tube should I buy to cover the plug and wire (between Neutrik plug and wire) for a good tight fit (labelled "heatshrink #1" on above diagram)[/size]
[size=x-small] 5) What size of shrink tube should I buy to cover the Y-Split for a good tight fit (labelled "heatshrink #2" on above diagram)[/size]
[size=x-small] 6) Better yet, maybe a already-made-ready-to-use Y-Split cover...[/size]
[size=x-small][size=x-small] 7) Anything else you would recommend, avoid, etc... ?[/size][/size]
[size=x-small] [/size]
[size=x-small]Maybe I should have posted this in the DIY section but I thought I'd ask the Grado crowd before
