Senn HD280 Help

[pplinux]

The cable got screwed up and now I only hear the left side.

I want to replace the wire. I dont want silver (unless you think it would help in such low-end headphones).

I know sennheiser offers a replacement cable but its $30

When you open the left can you can see 4 small wires that are soldered into a smalll pcb. Theese are the ones that go through to the mini jack

I can solder so I just need to know where can I get it and what kind of wire is that so i can buy it.

I dont know if this is a stupid question or not because I dont know much about audio cables but any help is good
Thank You

Been a while since I opened mine up but aren't the wires actually soldered to a little plug that plugs into that circuit board?

As far as wire goes.. Canare L-4E5C is pretty popular but Mogami and Belden offer similar products.

those 4 pins can actually be unplugged from the PCB, i recables mine a while back with canare mini mic cable, i forget the model, i sold the headphones

are u replacing the main cable or the smaill wires inside that go to the drivers?

MisterX you are correct. it goes to a plug that plugs into the pcb. I was more concerned with the "type" of cable. is the there a specific gauge or something. any specifics that I need to know?

I am new to audio so that is why I am asking
