DT880 Balanced Detachable Dual-Entry Recable Questions
I did finish with two mono chassis plugs and two stereo male connectors originally, but I am currently recabling my DT880's with the custom connectors that Moon-Audio has (in one of my previous posts) since they are smaller and very well made. I will see about possibly posting pictures this...- N080D7

It is clear, although it is slightly hard to tell even when you have the wire until you strip it. It is quite nice for such a reasonable price compared to most which cost more per foot.- N080D7

The Lune cable, certainly. The Lune cable is my favorite in that it does not have any memory effect and seems to be near impossible to tangle (other than the ear guides locking onto each other). You do need to be a bit careful though since it can snag and possibly be bent too much that you...- N080D7

DT880 Balanced Detachable Dual-Entry Recable Questions
Ohh, I am just curious. But I will be going with coax route, just trying to find the Switchcraft 35HD Series Locking Plug (preferably 35HDLBAUS) cheap since it is not available on Markertek (most of the parts I have picked out are cheaper) and it is a bit costly from Mouser.

DT880 Balanced Detachable Dual-Entry Recable Questions
I was considering a mini XLR, but I would rather have a dual entry setup since it provides even pressure on both sides of my head, rather than just on a single side, and I am pretty sure it would be a bit overkill using dual mini XLR's since both would only be using 2 pins.

Getting "called-out" for not wearing the Beats

DT880 600ohm Recable
Ohh, thanks for the suggestion. Moon Audio does re-cable the DT880's according to their webpage and this thread. They also also have the option of splitting the L/R wires and even making them detachable, so Moon Audio is certainly of interest to me. -

By balanced I mean re-cabled with a balanced terminating interconnection and then put into a fully balanced amp/dac/source system. I have seen two re-cabled TF10's with balanced interconnections and I am just wondering if there would be any audible difference.- N080D7
