Need recommendation on headphone extension cable
« on: 13 Oct 2006, 11:58 pm »
I'm not sure if I'll hear a difference if the cable is better than the stock headphone connector cable, but on my HD600 I do have a Clou Cable 212 Red Jaspis.  My AKG K701 is all stock.  I checked out the cables at Headroom and have done some general internet Google searches.  What do you guys recommend?  Go with the affordable Grado?  (This is the same cable used with Grado headphones.)

Drew at Moon Audio makes a very nice cable for this headphone amp, but sells them as a package, since he has to wire the 701 specially.  The cable is the black dragon, a copper litz design.  I have it on my AKG 171, and i love its warmth and detail.  Call or email him.  He always replies quickly.

I've used the Grado on my AKG K701 and numerous Grado phones and it sounds fine.  A slight degradation, but not bad at all.
