Hi everybody, 
 
I just joined, so please be gentle.  I have a set of Beyerdynamic T50P headphones, and I snapped the y-cable for the headphones.  I need to re-cable the headphones, but have no idea what type or kind of cable to get.  I would prefer the standard audio jack so I can use it with my computer or phone, but I do not know where I can buy headphone cables that will work with these.  I have some soldering skills, so I assume I can do it myself (and I have already cracked open the ear cups).  I do not need some headphone cable that is extremely expensive, just a standard cable that will sound good and wont break the bank.  Also, if there are cables with music controls built in, that would be nice as well, but it is not necessary. If you guys have any recommendations, I would be extremely happy.  
 
Thank you

Not sure what kind of 1/8" TRS plug you want to use, but the Canare looks nice.
But i'm sure there are lots of options out there.
