I cannot recommend enough using a balanced cable with the HD800. I've opted for the Sennheiser CH800. The difference was dramatic and astounding.
What amps? Balanced shouldn't make a difference.
Does anyone offer a right angle on the 1/4" end for an HD800 cable?
I have been nothing but thrilled with the sound from my HD 800's, but I recently came across a Six Moons review that flat-out ridicules the stock cable. Quoth the reviewer: "Stock cables aren't up to par. They must be replaced or any true discussion on performance is invalid."
Really?! Were these headphones actually *held back* this whole time? That's a frightening thought.
Is there any truth to this? To be honest, I've ran some searches, and I'm not even sure what that type of cable is called, the kind that are interchangeable like that. Where do I find them? Which are best for the model in question?
Advice appreciated; thanks for reading.
