Recable HD555

Recommended Posts

I'm planning to recable my HD555 and I would like it to be brighter sounding, and I prefer clarity and soundstage over bass.

 

Can anyone recommend me which cable to use? What about braided PC-OCC cooper? (found it in a thread here, looks pretty cool)

get silver plated cables, they are bright!!

 

 

Yes agree, if you get the correct one they are very good, but I think unless you want to get thick cables meant for RCA termination (eg Supra's EFF-I), it might be hard to find good silver-plated copper wire locally. The next best bet is to look at silver cables.

 

I really like the UPOCC copper wire mentioned in ahfartaudio's website, but I would not use it if I want to make my setup brighter. I haven't tried the silver though, but it should be good.

Thanks for the suggestion!

 

BTW, I've settle with Canare StarQuad. I'll start doing the soldering after I get the heatshrink.

 

 

EDIT: Should I solder the shielding to the ground, or should I remove the shielding to make it lighter? The cable is 3 m long.
