Senn HD 2pin -> 4.4mm cable: thumbs up!

I purchased 4 - TYPE 4 - DUAL 2 PIN SENN HD SERIES, 5 ft cable from Periapt cables (https://periaptcables.com/) last month. They can terminate to 4.4mm. You can add it to the comment and email them. It took about 2 weeks from ordering and arrival. The cable is well made. Customer service is top notch - fast email responses and friendly. I purchased the cable to listen to with Massdrop Jubilee HD58x and Ibasso DX200 Amp8. I don't have any other cables to compare this with so I can only comment on sound changes from going: AMP1 3.5mm SE stock cable to AMP8 4.4mm BAL Periapt cables. I heard a noticeable step change in clarity, wider soundstage, deeper base notes, forward midrange, rich/lush, and sharper imaging. Clearly, I suspect a lot of it is the move from amp1 to amp8, but there's not much that leaves me wanting more - I don't hear anything I don't like. So I'm really happy with the purchase and would buy from them again. See photos:

Glad you like them! I asked them to make a special cable for traveling with my Bose noise-canceling cans, with a right-angle termination for the aircraft-seat end, and a non-locking 3.5mm for the Bose end. They just execute as promised, and they are the nicest folks.

Just left a review on Massdrop, this cable may have been the cure for the sibilance I was experiencing with the hd600, sound more like what I remember the hd6xx sounding like, less in your face (maybe slightly veiled? ) and I can turn up the knob on my MCTH to max now without my ears bleeding. Maybe this is an issue with my MCTH 1/4 jack or my hd600 stock cable, however with no way to confirm I'm more inclined to believe it's the better quality of the Periapt cable. Would recommend for anyone looking for a XLR cable for hd6XX series Headphones.

I ordered the Pro in order to use with my LCD2 in December and really like it over the stock cable. It is more durable and doesn't tangle up on my desk which is great.

I have only tried their interconnects for a while but ended up with some Studio Cables 4S RCA's as they had better sound staging and resolution. This was for connecting my Dac to my headphone amp.

I have some Studio Cables 4S myself but my wife threw out the papers and boxes with the website do you have it?

Thinking about getting a pair for my Nighthawks. Came across this thread, sounds like a good choice.

Has anyone else had issues with Periapt's 2-pin plugs that are used for the HD6XX? It's very hard to insert and near impossible to pull out without damaging the wire. I had to use pliers to pull them out and am hesitant to put them back in fully.

Just wanted to see if I'm doing something wrong before I email them.

Thanks for the message but I think I'm ok now. After several plugins/unplugs the connector has compressed enough where this isn't much of an issue anymore. Would appreciate if you guys would test & condition it on a HD6XX yourselves before shipping though. If anything it would make it easier to use for the customer

got 1 for my HD6XX, the 2 cables connecting to the headphone is too stiff and would glide with my shirt with any slight movement and creates loud microphonic sounds, very annoying, the stock cable does not have this problem

I had microphonic problems with my Periapt cable for my HD6XX. Ended up selling the cable and ordering some custom length original Sennheiser balance cables from Custom Cans in the UK. I wish Periapt would offer more colour options as well. I'd love a dark "forest" green cable for my HD6XX.

Hello, I am with Periapt cables and I wanted to address the lack of color options you mentioned in your post. We most definitely want to provide more color options down the road. As of right now, customers can write in the comment box provided on the cart page, a desired color that is not listed on our site. We do not have these listed because they are in limited supply and are not always available for reorder. We do not charge extra for these. Alternatively, customers are more than welcome to contact us directly to see what our current color options are. We would be more than happy to send a photos of what we have available.
