I'm getting fed up with hearing interference from fellow commuters' mobile phone signals/blackberries...etc on my B&W P5s!  Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I could buy a better shielded, high quality replacement cable?  I don't use the remote control/microphone so a cable without this feature is fine.
 
I've done a quick search online but can't find anywhere in the UK that sells a decent 3.5mm plug to 2.5mm plug cable (the 2.5mm end goes into the headphones so there is no room for a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter).  I'm keen to avoid having to get my soldering iron out if possible (fiddly electronics DIY is not my strong point)!

Stefan Audioart now do an E-series cable upgrade for the P5.  It is quite expensive however - I don't think I could justify spending this much on a cable for my P5s, particularly for portable use where the microdetails/nuances of the music tend to get lost in London's cacophony of background noise!
