Quote:   I highly doubt that anyone would have the exact same cable with the same termination but different plugs. I'm not an expert but i cant see how the different plating on a small plug can change sq.

I have both the Lisa III and the Lisa L3 and find the 71b to sound better then both of them with the HD800 when used balanced.

Quote: I dont think there would be any difference in sq with either.

Quote: Have you tried the sr-71b? The HD800 sounds quite good with the 71b when used balanced.    

Can the HD800 actually work from an iPhone?   edit. Tried it and it actually works lol Doesn't sound too good but it works.

I don't think you understand that i was only stating what Jerry had put up on facebook and what i was then told by someone at JH so it should be a question for JH why they said the low drivers get spoilt once removed from the shell yet theystill re use all the same drivers when they remake...

Quote: I do say when they are re made when sent in for re fits, I asked them once if they replace the low drivers if the customs are remade and the answer was that they do not and that they use the same drivers so i then referred them to Jerry's comment where he said that when the drivers...

Quote: Thanks for the reply.    

Nice cables, dont really like the brown and clear personally, might consider brown to match the headphones a little.   Scooter, how flexible is the DHC RS OCC Silver Molecule and can i ask what gauge the silver is?      

Quote: Thanks for the advice, i bought some of that SPC wire from the ebay guy and some Viablue 1/4" jacks from Qables so will give my first cable a go in a couple of days and see how it turns out, i will use the cheaper rean mini xlr i paid £1.70 for first so i dont waste too much money...

Quote: Thanks, i have one of those gas ones which you refill and can chage tips on, never soldered before though.  

Quote: Looking forward to it.

Quote: The amount you spent on your new DHC cable would be silly to some, i'm looking forward to your first impressions and some pictures of the cable with the phones, i'm still trying to make up my mind on which cable to get and i would like the cable to actually look nice also with...

Quote: Look at those who collect watches for one with prices of £50'000+ on some of them so this hobby is quite cheap, the average person can buy the STAX 009 with a couple of months pay while to buy a top of the line Rolex it would take a several years pay.  

Now all i need to do is figure out how exactly to make the cable as i've never made a headphone cable before.

I don't believe you need to be rich to afford such cables, anyone with a decent paid job with a passion for audio and quality cables would buy them. My brothers speaker set up has around £20,000 worth of cables on it.

http://www.crystalcable.com/   Google search also shows some of their cables selling for 8000euro+.

Went to buy some mini xlr plugs at the local hifi/mic store earlier and i showed them the picture on this thread and they actually had 4 of the female and one male left and they are actually gold plated also. He said he will order few more in for me next week, i really like these ones.  ...

Quote:   I believe they do, although when the first released this product and offered the upgrade service they stated the Low drivers get spoilt once taken out of the shell and these needed to be replaced. If that is the case then they should be replacing the Low drivers on everyone's...

Quote: Can you tell me which xlr plugs those are please?  

I just sent back my earpiece to have the color changed to what i have originally ordered. When i spoke to them when i first got it they said i only need to send back the earpiece, this i later confirmed but i thought they needed the amp to tune the earpiece as it will have to be remade or is...

^^ I cannot find any mention of OCC pn Q site, it just says pure copper.
