My SR-60i has come a long way.
Hoping I could get some input from those of you who have been down this road for a while now - I'm still planning on replacing the headband and recabling. But I got serious sticker shock at what 4-5 feet of pure silver cabling would run, and was wondering if there's a cheaper option that would also provide a hopefully noticeable audio quality upgrade over the stock cable. What probably killed the urge to stick a $100+ cable onto this thing was going to a high-end audio store nearby yesterday and auditioning an RS-2. It was immediately apparent to me that it has a level of refinement that my SR-60 does not deliver even after all these mods. While I do like the more impactful/bassier sound I am now getting, it does get a little boomy with certain heavy/busy music and this noticeably cuts into the mids. I'm only running 2 holes in the felt now and I have done the dynamat to the back of the driver. The RS-2 made me realize that after the headband and silver cable I'll have spent enough to buy a nice used RS-2 on evolving my SR-60i but they still will probably not sound as good / detailed / refined, etc. Damn I should have never put that RS-2 on, that was stupid, hehe...
Anyway, I'm digressing... Any thoughts on cable? Would mogami quad deliver a noticeable improvement? Any other really good bang for the buck options I should consider?
BTW, working my way through the original massive SR-60 mod thread (about halfway through right now) and will eventually get to everything, sorry if I am asking a question that has been discussed before.
