You can get Moon Audio Silver Dragon
I'm currently listening to FLACs on my computer with the HD 650s through a Magni/Modi stack. Everything is great, except I would have preferred a little better treble clarity.
I'm thinking of upgrading the stock cables to a silver cable. I heard this improves the treble a bit.
Any recommendations? So far, the Toxic Silver Poison 6 ft one looks pretty attractive. I heard this has a very long wait time? I'm based in the US. Are there any other cables that wil give me better bang-for-buck? Thanks.
The cable could improve the treble just a bit, and you won't have a day and night change in highs.
that BIT is the MAGIC ....
a little artisansalt to finish that dish.

For the price of a Silver Poison cable you could purchase another headphone to compliment the HD650.
Or - if you must sink more funds into your HD650 rig - you could sell the Magni and add what you would've spent on a cable towards a BH Crack.
Another option would be to address your source. Offload the Modi and pay the difference for an Uber Bifrost. This will set a good foundation for other upgrades down the path.
You'll get more tangible improvements with these options. An overpriced cable for your entry level setup is a waste IMO.
Cable can improve the clarity a bit, but your talking about that last 1%. I agree with the above, upgrade the amp or dac before playing with cables. A crack would be a different ball game compared to a Magni, and by far make the biggest difference for $ spent.
Having said that i use my HD650 with a Bottlehead S.E.X. via an upgraded cable running balanced with an XLR connector. The biggest improvement for clarity/treble is to take them off and put my Grados on

I got to try HD650s recently. I find the rumors of them being 'dark' and 'veiled' extremely exaggerated. Through a Schiit setup (Mjolnir + Gungnir), they were actually pretty bright.
I really liked them, and I'm thinking these will be my next step up when I eventually decide to upgrade headphones.
