Sorry for the lack of an update. With last weekend being 4th of July weekend and all that I didn't really have all the time I thought I would. The current plan is for me to do the detachable cable mod this next weekend. Supposedly my uncle has tools so I'll have to get in touch with him...

Tamarind Burl. It wasn't cheap...

The wood I'm planning on eventually using for the wooden cups came in today.             Here is a picture of the cable I made the other day. Waiting for a new jack to come in before I mess with detachable cables on my headphones.  

What are the approximate dimensions? I was eyeing these (http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=090-317) but the one you showed looks a little more compact.

Neutrik NYS 230. It's 1/4' instead of 1/8', so the cable I made wouldn't fit. It was also larger than that side section of the cup too >.>.

As I think more about making the wooden cups the more I want to do it. The only issue I can see is finding tools to use to shape the wood how I need it. I'm currently eyeing a couple pieces of wood on eBay but I really have no woodworking experience at all and I first and only experience with...

Opening the DT 770s isn't too tough, and I've already been in there a couple times to clean stuff. I'm not really too worried as the entire process sounds simple enough. I will post pictures if I remember. I should have time to do all of this next weekend, if not sooner depending on when parts...

I decided to go ahead and try this out. I ordered a Neutrik NYS 230 as the jack for my headphones. Building a cable out of 2 Amphenol KS3P-AUs and Mogami W2582. I feel like I can't really screw this up too badly unless I somehow damage the driver while taking it out, which doesn't seem to be too...

Hi! I've been lurking around this website off and on since I bought my DT 770s in December but I haven't really felt the urge to create an account and post until now.   The main thing I've been thinking about doing to my DT 770s is recabling, possibly making the cable detachable but at least...
