    Found one, but if you have a crazy deal I'd probably still listen...

    I'm looking for a balanced cable that will work with my Monolith M1060's. I need a cable that is at least 6ft in length, dual 2.5mm at the headphone end to 4-pin XLR. I'd like to keep it at $80 or less if possible. Let me know what you have, thanks!

    I've been looking around for a similar cable myself for a 400i I picked up on the cheap (they actually sound damn good with ZMF Aeolus stock pads). There's a plethora of Chi-Fi options, but Periapt seems to be U.S based, and has a lot of good feedback from some people I know. Obviously I haven't pulled the trigger yer. Looks like only 5' & 7' available, both under $80. (PM me if you want some of the Chi-Fi options I found)

    I actually have used Periapt for a few cables, and my current cable for my M1060's is a 7ft orange 1/4" from them. Nice build quality and a good company. I was hoping for something a bit different this time around, more IEM like, and I found one on eBay just before coming in here to read your post. THIS CABLE is the one I just bought, but please link me to the Chi-Fi options you found if you would, I'd be curious to see what's on offer.
