When I first opened the Pelican case in which my LCD-2's came in, I was blown away by everything inside it, except you guessed it, the cables. For a product that oozed so much build quality and polish (I upgraded my Bamboo Composite version with the brown leather headband and earpads, which makes the set look even nicer IMO) I felt the stock cables looked generic and cheap.
As I browsed for 3rd party cables, I realized that most are very high end and high priced alternatives (adding a tinge of snake oil to the whole idea of upgraded cables). Thankfully, I decided to browse Head-Fi before purchasing anything, and found this recommendation of Impact Audio Cables. Glad I did. Lindsey is a really cool and communicative person, we actually have a very long conversation during my decision process to select paracord colors, connectors, etc.
I am really happy with the end product, and Lindsey even used a photo of my cable as the primary sample for his Audeze version. Although I can only notice a very tiny difference in audio quality, the actual build quality and looks of the cable for the price is unbeatable, at least for me. I'll be buying another set for my Grado RS2e's soon, and also a shorter, 3.5mm version for my LCD-2's to use with my Apogee Groove or straight to iPad/iPhone/MacBook.
Once again, thanks to the community and especially Lindsey for a good product and experience.
