    3.5mm Audio Cable for Detachable Cable

    Unfortunately, I haven't found anyone online that sells the Gotham cable I want and kind of provide a one stop shop or everything else. The mogami is decently priced for being the "go-to" wire of the forum so I believe I'll be going with that. So far, my build will consist of Mogami W2893...

    3.5mm Audio Cable for Detachable Cable

    Another question I wanted to ask as well is a lot of research I've been doing said to use the shield as the common ground. What are the down falls to this? If I can do that, I can also just use a 2 pole cable instead of a 4 pole, correct? If I can't use the shield as a ground, should I just...

    3.5mm Audio Cable for Detachable Cable

    So, I just got my HD428S last week and I've already done the bass mod, which I need to redo it since it's a little too muddy. Besides that, I want to do a detachable cable mod. I've already figured out how I'm going to mount the female jack and I hope that goes well for me, but I have some...

    Detachable Interchangeable Cables

    I'm not sleeping on the bus with them since most trips are under an hour. The bus was relevant for isolation and leakage. The buses are loud, between it and the commuters. I also can't stand listening to other people's music, so I figure it's only fairly to limit how much of my music was leaked...

    Detachable Interchangeable Cables

    Another update. I found someone on Craigslist that has a set of Sennheiser HD428 new and in box for $20. It wasn't my ideal first set, but at that price, I looked passed basically everything else. I just hope it is the HD428S that has the shorter cable. Not sure what I will do with 10' of cable...

    I figured I'd update this thread since I found a good enough compromise. Instead of an interchangeable cable and the bluetooth remote, I believe I'm going to go with an adapter remote, specifically, the one found here...

    Detachable Interchangeable Cables

    Since I wasn't able to get a definite answer about interchangeable cables, I did some more research and stumbled upon this. http://www.simplism.jp/en/products/iphone/dualo_one_click_remote_with_mic_1/index.html This greatly increases my options of headphones, and want any suggestions on full...

    Detachable Interchangeable Cables

    I already posted a thread on the beginner forum and got some good advice. Between reading different reviews and articles here, I think I've found what I want. I've had some experience with IEMs and supra aural headphones and they don't quite fit my needs. I ride the bus on a daily basis, enjoy...

    Yeah, Amazon has them for $85 shipped. But I'm not sure if you can answer this question or if I should start a new thread, but reading information on the HD439, their cable locks into place, possibly by twisting a bit. I email Sennheiser and asked if their Momentum cable fit and they said they...

    New and Looking for the ones

    So, I've been looking around, and found basically what I'm looking for. I believe I'm going to be going with the HD439, closed circumaural detachable headphones, and a cable for beats by Dre that I found for $11 that has the three button remote integrated into it. The other option I saw was a...

    Another approach I was looking at was detachable cables. Not only for the fact of convenience, but to swap out the only audio cable for a remote cable too. The limitation has to be under $50 then to leave money for a quality three button cable too. Are the detachable systems proprietary...

    I don't doubt the crossfades are exceptional headphones, but even at the $100 price range, not only are they breaking the bank, but the style isn't exactly what I want. I like the simple look, I don't need to draw attention to myself, not anymore than a full size headphone already does anyways...

    The crossfades are basically exactly what I want, but I can't ignore that $100 price tag either. The style to them is a little more extreme than I was hoping for, about the same way I feel about the Moguls. I really like a lot of the Sennheiser headphones, but the only ones that fit what I want...

    New and Looking for the ones

    It's ok, I was in a rush to type it up and my wants weren't stated as well as I had thought. Let's have one more attempt using some proper terms. I am looking for some circumaural headphones with iPod controls (mic, call, volume), have minimal sound leak (I can tolerate not having isolation, I...
