I'm loving the Valhalla with HD600/Blue Dragon.  It really nails the midrange.  Not a tubey sound.  Tough to beat for the price.  I did order a Bottlehead Crack for a project....................

I've been considering a Blue Dragon for the HD650. Still, I don't know. I want something with cloth or fabric around it, like the Q-Audio cable. So far I have looked at Double Helix Cables, and the Zu Mobius (which I can't seem to find anywhere)....

Have you considered DIY? It's a lot of work, but the results can be absolutely stunning.

I had the Zu Mobius years ago.  Contacted Zu custom only now.  About $400.  My Blue Dragon is DIY.

I have, but don't have the time, since I'm 16, and am in High School. I might just get the ALO Audio Cyro cable, seeing as they are only a 30 minute drive away and after auditioning them a few times, sound pretty good and make the HD650's cable look absolutely beastly.

 I had nothing but time in high school, and nothing to do with it.

Question for you cable enthusiasts. How easy are they to replace? Say for a senn HD650? Just want to know how my options will go in the future if I ever want to try out cable swapping.

 

[MorbidToaster]

As long as it's not hardwired it's an easy plug n play recable.

Hmmm, do most high end headphones have disconnecting cables? I just did some quick searching and it seems like the HD650 is indeed disconnectable and looking on moon-audio's website, they make their cables to be a bunch of different types(including the 650).

A lot of high end cans do indeed have removable cables. 
 
HD650, 600, 800. LCD 2 / 3, HE5LE, 500, 6. 
 
The most popular cables from aftermarket manufactures are the LCD series and the HE series cables.
