Necroist 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 Anyone knows where sells the cheapest replacement cables for the hd-497? Hung Bros quoted me $40 which is too damn expensive. Are there any cables that are meant for the hd-497 that can improve the sound quality? (like the clou red of the hd600) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishball79 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 Hmmm... if i can find the 2.5mm plugs someone here could make one for ya... but as firefox or ablaze (cant remember) mentioned, those plugs wont be as thin as the original hence it might need some filing, etc...

fishball79 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2003 Deteoriation? Almost any quality <$5/m stock cable will sound more transparent, seemingly wider bandiwdth (more highs, bass). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mackie 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2003 Speak to Robert and he will advise U through the whole process. Please ask him to terminate the cables accordingly and bring your cans along. If U have a contact problem, maybe the agent should take a look at it instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
