Email Ted at https://headphonelounge.com/... Tell him what you need and he will provide excellent service at a great price.

He has made custom XLR to speaker tap adapters for many of us who use speaker amps to power our 1266s.

He's making one for me at the moment. Ted’s service is excellent.

Surprised Abyss don't sell these in their store in the stock and superconductor options.
Official Abyss headphone cable with banana plugs. Or speaker to XLR adapters. Seems like there is a demand for it.
They definitely have the resources!...

Abyss does sell the adapter, $500... But only in the Superconductor flavor... Currently, you need to ask them for one as if is not available in their store... At least for now.

 

[ken6217]

The Superconductor adapter is a lot more than $500. The $500 adapter is the Ultraconducter with the blue jacket.

 

[mulder01]

Ah ok yeah superconductor stuff is not cheap...
Even adding banana plug options to the termination options of the cables, as the termination options don't effect the price of the cable.

Maybe they are not in the store because it gives the impression that using a speaker amp must be safe, which it may not be in every case...

That's how I'd read it as well.

Good intuition. Joe”s told me more than once “you’re on your own”.

 

[mulder01]

haha oh ok, well that explains that then...

Any reason behind that?

Let me know if you can get the original cable for $200. Good luck!

Damaging the drivers due to too much power, not turning the amp on properly, or connecting or disconnecting cables while the amplifier is on.
The headphones were made for a headphone amp.
