Alight, I've recently received my Philips Fidelio x1's I can say I'm very pleased with them so far. However I'd like to make these headphones really shine and have the best performance possible.
I've read around that the stock audio cable should be replaced to improve the audio quality, which is a shame the stock cable is beautiful.. Wondering if anyone could recommend a similar looking cloth cable with low Ohm resistance that would perform the best? (I've read the V-Moda cable, but is there a better looking one? yeah, i'm picky)
Another question, I have the sonar essence STX sound card. I have read that this is not the best match for a low impedance headphone such as these x1's. I'd like to keep this sound card however, as I love it for movies and games. What are my options? Any input and advice would be highly appreciated, budget around $500 I'm willing to spend in total here.. thank-you!
