I want to try recabling my Audio Technica ATH-D40fs headphones. The cable enters the left side; it is only three wires, and they terminate at a small terminal block attached to the left driver. The wires are TINY (32+ AWG?) and have some kind of cloth dielectric.
That same kind of wire then runs through the headband to the right driver.
My question is, if I replace the main cable with a three-strand braid of some decent SPC (probably 28AWG), do I need to figure out a way to replace the wire connecting the right driver, as well? That is, will the 10 inches or so of cheap, crappy wire cause the right driver to not match the left, sound-wise?
