Yup. My tech will be the one to have "fun" wiring those miserable cables. ;D
This is what I plan to use. http://www.mogamicable.com/category/bulk/console/, W2944. A pair of those. I also have the quads, W2799, but I assumed you used W2944. These don't actually sound bad at all, though hardly "audiophile approved". Though my Sennheiser dealer prays I buy his ALOs which cost almost as much as my HD800!
So from your experience, the Mogami made a positive difference? Anyway this mod is cheap enough to do. Once I get the Mainline up and running, I'll first put an XLR on the stock cable then build this one. Also going to try the Anax mod, though I find if the original recordings were great to start with, the HD800 plays them back nicely. It's just all the new overly bright and compressed stuff that sounds bad on these.
Cheers!
