Can I briefly rekindle the headphone cable discussion a few pages back? I've always built my own cables, mostly using bulk Moon Audio Black Dragon. I've heard differences between cables, but I eventually adapted the mindset that once cable materials were of high enough quality, differences between high-quality cables were very difficult to confirm over placebo. Just wondering if it is worth reentering that space, do users of silver/silver plated copper really feel the differences are substantial? If so, I might give Norne or Zach's new silver cable a shot.
Here is my Black Dragon ZMF cable I built and use with the Atticus/Auteur. BTW, I wish the rhodium Oyaide 1/4" plugs I use were more widely available, they just feel rugged as hell, bulletproof quality, but are getting hard to come by. Highly recommended!
I can't comment on sound yet until my headphone breaks in. But I should be able to give you feedback of silver vs. OFC once they do. Speaking of the Oyaide 1/4" plug, you can order it on a Norne cable like I did. It is very nice quality:
