I always think I'm gonna scratch Diana when using this bag (from zipper slider).
Hahaha. Yeah, its not the greatest protection or storage….

I try to cover the cups with my hand as I pull it out of the bag but I plan to get a better case.

Anyone here have any recommendations for a plushy case with a nice tough shell?

Personally I would just get an appropriate sized pelican case and some blades to custom cut the foam for them.

Theyre a little too bulky for carrying to work everyday.

Dekoni makes some nice ones with the type of material im after but I dont need that much storage space either.. so toiletry bag it is.

Thanks tho

This might seem like an odd request but does anyone know what 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter would work so I can use the superconductor cable with other headphones??

I picked up a slappa case for my ZMF and the Diana's fit pretty well too. There is a bit of room around the headphones but I don't think that would cause any issues because the center raised pieces seem to stabilize things. I haven't really used it for the Diana yet but I've used it for my ZMF a number of times and it's worked great and protects them well.

It looks like this is the newer case and it looks like the dimensions are the same but they made it more of a hard shell:

This is the one I purchased:

I have a Diana TC with XI Audio stack, I am thinking about changing the stock cable, ideally with one which will not cause loss of any bass impact and perhaps tame the treble slightly. Suggestions welcome :)

I just got an Eletech Inferno cable for my Diana Phi. I have enjoyed their cables when I had iems and this one is equally excellent.

It’s a bit pricey but would do exactly what you are looking for I think. It makes me want to upgrade to the TC as I think this cable with the TC would be an even better match from what I’ve read of the TC.

Here‘s a review that matches my impressions

Many thanks for the heads-up on the Eletech. My XI Audio stack and Diana TC is currently up for sale, but should I end up keeping it all I will definitely look into the Inferno.

The cable looks really heavy.
