I have a question on the type of cable to use. I've seen a lot of recommendations both ways. I'm looking to make some custom cables and re-wire a headphone, so would like to know which cable to buy a big spool of. This way I can be set in the long run.
Canare L-4E6S
Mogami W2893
Mogami W2534
Now I know the W2893 is the thinnest, but people have said it is also the easiest to work with because of that. I also see a lot of pro cables made using the Canare (MrSpeakers old cables, ZMF's old cables). This is also a much heavier gauge of wire.
If I wanted to just buy one spool of cable for all my needs (headphone re-wire, interconnects, adapters, etc.), which is the best bet?
Also, is there much benefit in doubling up the cores? For example, if I were to re-wire my Grado's, I technically only need the 4 wires (2 for each cup). But their new 'e' series line has been going with an 8 conductor core. Do you think it is worth doubling it up or just using the single wire?
I imagine if I were to go the route of using 2 wires, the W2893 would be the best since it is the highest gauge.
Anyways, any and all comments would be appreciated for an inspiring cable builder
Thanks
