Has anyone balanced the ATH-W5000??? I received my package from PJ yesterday and I'm tentatively planning to balance them with the stock cable, pending your comments of course. The W5000 sounds great right out of the box, single ended. I must admit my hands shake to much to attempt to do the job myself, so I have to farm it out to someone who does the job.

The stock cable seems so delicate when I handle it, does this necessitate a re-cable also? I really don't want to mess with the AT signature sound. What commercial would you recommend? If any?

Help me out here guys.

Iron_Dreamer has and has posted his views on this modification. Note the cable has some peculiarities that may make it a little different to balance than some other headphones.
