Hi,
so I'm thinking about modding my AKG K430 headphones, as they are a faithful companion throughout my everyday life, however I'd lke to add some functionality.
However I need some parts, but as I am quite new to this I'd like to ask for some help in finding them and recieving the best possibly price for them.
What I need is:
I greatly appreciate any help in finding fitting parts. One more thing is that I'd prefer to buy all these parts from as few retailers/sellers as possible to reduce shipping costs. If possible, retailers within Sweden would be great, as this would make it easier for me to gather the parts and I know the appropriate laws binding swedish sellers, making it easier to claim a faulty product.
Thanks in advance,
Grorbabrag

What I need is:
- a good, sturdy but still flexible cable that isn't too heavy but still can stand a beating (keep in mind, these headphones are to be used on the move and therefore should be as light and durable as possible)
- a straight 3.5mm male contact, preferably neutrik as they are reliable from my previous experience, however any brand will do as long as it is durable
- an angled 3.5mm male contact, again preferably neutrik however any brand will do as long as it is durable, this is what I have so far: http://www.kjell.com/sortiment/ljud-bild/kablar-adaptrar/3-5-mm/kontakter/neutrik-ntp3rcb-p67289 (sorry for the swedish site , hope you can manage)
- a 3.5mm socket that fits into the K430's earcup, I still have to measure it but something small is of advantage, preferably something that is secured from the outside without the need of glue
