just go to your local radioshack and pick up an aux cable
Will it be any good though? I've heard that some sound like complete crap if you don't get the right kind.
Uhh... I don't have any buddies with them. I'd rather get something that won't mess with the sound quality.

PS: Beats actually have decent cables. I like them as plain ol interconnects.
I've heard great things about Kitsound. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120630708992&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&afsrc=1 I'm going to buy one soon, but I'm waiting until after mother's day. And yes, Beats cables are nice. That is the only cable I might buy from them, but I would personally prefer to keep the cable black. I like keeping it low profile.
Cables don't have a huge effect, but that said, I really don't trust Radio Shack cables for high end usage. After I heard what their converter did to a pair of higher end Grado headphones (325i) I decided that they are not worth it, despite being so cheap.
This was a cable I considered but the problem is it's so long. 1.5m is quite a bit of extra cable. I've found that 1m is the best length, albeit even that seems a little long at times.
I used the Ultrasone Short cable for my TMA-1 for quite some time, too. That was my favorite cable for it.
Link?
Tried my friend's Bose today (http://www.amazon.com/Around-Ear-Headphones-Personal-Portable-Listening/dp/B000MMWT9Q/ref=sr_1_45?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1304723340&sr=1-45), and I have to say, I can't spot a huge difference in the sound. This is discouraging to me. Everyone always talks about how crappy the sound is, but I don't know if it really is that bad, or if the TMA's are just overpriced. Hm.
