I've got the Sennheiser HD598 which I modified to accept the Momentum iPhone cable. It still sounds great, but I don't know if there's a subtle loss of sound quality that I might notice with certain music. I think I notice a slight volume attenuation. The stock HD598 cable is much thicker than the Momentum cable. The HD598 impedance is 50 ohms compared to the Momentum's 18 ohms, so does the HD598 require a higher gauge cable? Is there a way to measure the resistance of the cable? I assume it needs to be measured with the headphone connected...
