LCD-2 and LCD-3 Owners - which aftermarket cable do you use?

Steve, any pics of your cable terminated in 4 pin xlr? Contemplating going that route in case I go balanced in future. I'd have to get a 1/4" adapter made up at the same time to accommodate my setup at the moment. How much length would the adapter add?

Thanks guys for very helpful information.
 
After going through this thread, I decided to get a replacement cable from Q-Audio ... and the now the hardest part is waiting for it to arrive.

That's exactly what I would do.

Hope to get the cable around the same time as my Traformatic Experience Head One amp.

I've just ordered a Double Helix Macromolecule for my LCD-2.
 
I was trying to decide between a Double Helix Molecule, Norse Audio or Q-Audio cable, but in the end settled on the Macromolecule.
 
I'm sure I'll be left wondering if I should have gone for silver instead of copper, but I couldn't justify the cost of a silver cable right now.

Hey guys,
 
I currently have the rev2 LCD-2 with stock cable and as I recently posted in the main LCD-2 thread, If I could have the rev2 sounding like my 'ideal' headphone, it'd probably sound like the rev2  with a less bright, more natural tone, closer to the rev1; with the same laid back sonic force as the rev2; with more treble extension and less boomy bass than the rev1 (in retrospect, what I perceived as boominess could have been caused by the forwardness of the rev1).
 
So, even though I am very grateful for what I have (rev2 with stock cable), I was wondering if the Silver Dragon cable and the rev1 LCD-2 would be my ideal sonic signature - though I have heard that the Silver Dragon makes the LCD-2 rev1 sound a little dry - and whilst I won't know that until I've heard it with my own ears, could anyone recommend another cable that seem to create the LCD-2 sound I'm looking for relative to what I've described above?
 
Many thanks,
Windsor
