I recommend Monoprice cables. They'll do whatever you want with their quantum field technology. It's like The Secret and through the power of the belief you'll hear that extra treble.
 
Otherwise use EQ like audio engineers do all the time. It's free as well which I'm sure some people will think is a negative.

Even better, I found that if I lightly hold my hand in the right 2.5mm connector it really enhances treble extension and detail. Try it out! If it doesn't work for you then I guess it just works for me and my own personal listening:)

Hi fellows, anyone tried pairing r70X with Valhalla 2 amp using Ibasso DX80 as DAP/ transport? Would love to hear some views. Thanks

Can a standard JDS O2 Headphone Amp power the ATH-R70X well? Would it improve the ATH-R70x sonic experience when paired Geek Out 450 DAC and a O2 Headphone amp?

O2 powers the r70x fine. I find it does scale with better equipment, but I enjoy my r70x out of my o2 just fine. It's a great little amp.

Are the connectors on the R70X 2.5mm and use the same locking mechanism as the Senn 518/558/598? Would any 2.5mm connector work as well and the locking is just added security?

I'm thinking it a raised 2.5mm connector should also work, they sockets looked recessed a bit 
 
Thanks!

400i cables don't work as the 2.5mm connects are indeed recessed.

Wish I had enough money for this pair + good amp as my current budget is just enough for the headphones + E10K amp. Them being 470ohm I am sure the poor E10K cant run them well.
 
Am I wrong though?
 
I guess I will have to go with AKG 712 + E10K
