Is it difficult to make your own cable? I remember not being able to find any decent how-tos. I used to make my own Ethernet cable so I'm not completely incompetent ;/)

Pretty easy to make headphone cables once you have a decent set of tools to work with but the more you practice the easier it gets.   There is a thread for DIY info: http://www.head-fi.org/f/6/diy-do-it-yourself-discussions
Check it out, I've found some good info in these threads.

You can use a forwarding agent like Mister Tao or similar. Expect the final price to be ~$50 or more though due to shipping and handling fee. You also has no buyer protection this way.

How is this headphone with jazz, r&b, and hip-hop?

Great with jazz and r&b, I don't listen to hip-hop so IDK how it would sound on HE-400i.

Thank you so much

Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask...any advice on where to purchase these? I just got done paging through a horror story thread on Reddit about QC and RMA issues with these and it's made me a little nervous about pulling the trigger.
