Hi, i wonder if there is kind of SMARTWRAP for a RS-1 ?

I understand this system is not possible with larger cable as RS-1 have, so another system who help managing cable for portable use ?

Thank's

While keep searching i wonder if this fish accessories can do the job, with a elastic to fix the cable... No, my RS-1 deserve better

I'd like to find something better too. I haven't got a problem with my Alessandros at the moment for stationary listening cause my headphone jack is a ways above my head and the cable won't reach the floor when I'm sitting down. But my HD600 cable is a full four feet LONGER(!) than the MS-1 and MS2i and it did manage to fall to the floor un-noticed the other day and I happened to step on it as I was in the process of standing up to talk to one of the kids.

...they learned some new words that day.

cable turtle can be a good idea but i always wonder with the kind of cable used on RS-1 have a minimal angle bending for not damage it ?

I mean put the cable like in the pics in a small tube maybe can damage the cable ?

Yeah... Grado cable seems a little too thick for a cable turtle. I used to have one, you have to wrap the cable in a pretty tight circle to make it fit.

You confirm my thought so

I guess that mean they can't have a solution other then keep cable in a large pocket

i suggest keeping the Grado cable coiled with a donut hole of no less than 3". iirc Larry from Headphile suggests the same... it's just too thick for anything less.

an interesting alternative to cable turtle would be to coil it up with a 3" donut hole, and then put it on your side like a lasso! that would look although you'd look kinda ridiculous.

There's a bunch of them lying around the house but none look as funky. Links to places to buy?
