Hi folks,
I need some advice on sourcing parts for a headphone recable project -
I love the jena labs cryo 24awg wire for its flexibility and sonics. Made a HD6xx cable a few years ago and love it. However, I'm also looking to try some nice litz wire.
I saw some nice wire from Toxic cables UK but was wondering if there are good sources in the US for litz occ wire. Looks like Norne and DHC used to have DIY wire but I cant find it on their site anymore. DHC has a 18AWG but that's too thick for a headphone recable IMO. Any other pointers for good occ litz wire ?
With litz wire, realized I'll need to get a solder pot. Amazon has some nice economical options. I use mundorf supreme solver usually. What a good bar to use for the solder pot ? Again any pointers would be appreciated.
I already have the connectors and splitter, so set there.
thanks !
