Hi guys,
This is my first thread, so firstly i'd like to say hi to everyone on the forums
Now down to business...
I just bought myself some Grado SR125i's (awesome) and i've been looking at making some detachable cables (with a 3.5mm jack) to replace the originals (6.3mm jack).
Now i'm pretty new to high end audio, and don't really know much about the sciency side of things and what affects sound quality etc, so i'm going to ask a few questions
Firstly, I understand that silver wire is superior to copper, albeit more expensive, so that's what I aim to use.
What connectors should I use to connect the cans themselves to the actual wires? 3.5mm audio Jacks?
Or is there a superior connection?
Will I lose any sound quality through these connections?
Any other tips you guys have would be very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Simon
