I haven't been able to find any, or i don't know where to look to find one. So i figured i might as well just make my own. Any yes my current cables have iOS volume controls in the middle of them. I figured i don't really need that feature if i made my own cable.

 
I've used this one, and it a tough plug, but heavy and big.
 
but you wont be needed a 4 conductor plug if you are not going to be using/ading the microphone option in the cable. basically any 3.5 to 3.5 cable extension will work as long as it fits.
 
2 straight rean plugs or 1 straight rean and 1 angled neutrik with mogami 2893 will do the job. simple and easy. or you could go for a fancier setting of plugs and sleeves.
 
edit: just notice it is 2.5mm plug on the headphone side... I havent use any of those, so good luck 

 the neutrik or rean are still good for the other end of the cable.

Thanks. But i went and bought a standard 3.5mm extension cable and i only get audio from one speaker. I guess i'm gonna try your links and see if i can find parts.

Probably only the left - which means they're not playing well with the extra ring... some connectors do, some don't. DIY is pretty straightforward.

nice idea

do you happen to know what size?
 
 

14x22 for the little one, 26x42 for the big one, but I think 14x20 and 26x31 or 26x34 are easier to find. Gasket is not the best term for searching these, try "copper washer" or "sealing washer"

Need some recommendations for recabling DT770 Pro 80. Also I was wondering if I could recable the headphones HD25 style (two single terminations that loop around but come out as a single connection).

You mean single sided entry recable? All you have to do is take apart the headphone completely and feed the wire through the headband. I suggest taking it all apart, soldering the new wire to the old, then pulling both through. 
 
For 2 "connections" just run 4 conductors and have one reach the left/right ear. then have more wire run through and get the remaining. fairly simple. No need for splicing.

4th attempt of making mixed cable braiding is not what I'm expected

Anyone know the O.D of paracord?
 
Also, where can I get 4:1 3/8 heatshrink. Dual wall or standard. either way.

 

[Mad Max]

Paracord: ~5-8mm depending on how much you stretch/compress it.  I've had no issues getting 4x24awg wires through it, and that's about as much as you can stick in there.
 
Heatshrink: one place that you can get 4:1 is fleabay

i doubt very much you'll get dual wall 4:1 in 3/8 anywhere including ebay as the adhesive wall would stop a size that small from being able to shrink that much, even with nothing inside it. but you could try wirecare for non adhesive and an outside chance of 3:1 adhesive

you sure you dont mean 3/16? 3/32 is ~2mm and multifilament doesnt stretch much, plus i'm not even sure there is such a thing, while there is definitely 3/16, i have a roll
