I've used sleeving quite a bit even before getting into making my own cables and recabling headphones. (computer modding) But all the sleeving I've used has been either somewhat stiff or plasticy. (is that even a word?) So, what kind of sleeving is used on high end headphone cables? I want some that will be soft and bend easily.

that stuff looks interesting, but at those lengths is there anyplace that sells cheaper? or someone who has some they want to sell me so I can give it a try before buying that much?

Check this out http://www.partsexpress.com/webpage....TOKEN=97625515 I think this is what you want at a much cheaper price. They also have heat shrink tubing that shrinks 3 times the dia to give a nice tight fit.

that stuff is also the stiffer techflex stuff. believe me, i know, because that's what i ordered from parts express.

i did finally find a cheaper alternative to cableorganizer due to being able to order short lengths: https://www.wirecare.com/wirecarephp...NM&prodline=ES

the key is looking for nylon mulitifilament. love the stuff!
