500+ Head-Fier
Well I have a dilemma, I'm currently recabling some headphones with 26 awg cotton copper. I'm using 6 strands for a 1 signal 2 ground setup for each channel. I intend to use the headphones for home-ish use. I might use it for travel but no outdoor/public use.
Currently I have already braided after the y-split with a 3 strand braid for each side. I'm thinking of doing a 6 strand flat braid or square/round braid. I asked a buddy of mine who said that it probably wasn't worth it to do an ugly braid like a 6-strand litz though.
Is it even worth it to braid or will twisting suffice and hold up for normal use?
