    With my EC Studio gone and HD650 no longer my primary headphone, I decided to sell the custom silver balanced cable I used with it. Made by Ted Allen of Headphone Lounge, it's the new T2 OCC Silver Litz (first introduced in 2016). Pure silver, 5 feet (1.5 meter) long, used for roughly 3 months and in excellent condition overall. Base price is $265, but I added the upgrade option of Furutech rhodium connectors for both ends--the best of their kind. Total price was $320 excluding shipping.

    I'm not gonna lie or sell bullshit, this cable is not going to make a night-and-day difference that will somehow turn your HD600/650 into a completely different animal. No cable upgrade would, you should try modding first. But if you feel your KISS or whatever mod isn't enough to make your HD650 sound like an HD850 of your dreams, the silver cable does help bring out the last few bits of resolution and make the music more transparent and lively compared to the stock copper cable. The improvements are subtle, but it's there.

    Although reterminating the stock cable is also a good idea if you have the DIY skills to pull it off, I feel this sale will appeal particularly to many Jotunheim/HD650 (or Studio/HD650) owners out there who wants a silver balanced cable that needs no looking further.

    My asking price is $180.

    Hey man, what's your current rig? I thought the studio + 650 was endgame for you. Are you headed to statland?

    No, I've been to statland years ago, but not even BHSE driving O2MK1 or 009 gave me the kind of toe-tapping enjoyment a modded HD650 could. I sold the Studio for financial reasons and downgraded to a more modest setup.

    My current rig is Stratus driving HD800SBSD and K1000BH.
