Yes I know all about resistance since GCSE physics, but in terms of audio some cable company's claim you'll hear whole new instruments and vocals in tracks. Can it honestly make that much difference? I doubt it.

It seems to me like cables could be a bit like every informercial out there, blagged up shit.

$5000 for a Red Dawn speaker cable 1.5m long. Jesus. Really?

What difference are we talking at various frequencies in dB?

That's what I want to know.

I still think it will make a small difference, but certainly not enough to spend 5k on 1.5m long cable (you must be mad), and definately not to the extent you mentioned above.

I'd like to replace my HD-25-1 II cable with a coiled cable as well. From where can I order an official replacement?

Edit: maybe calling up Sennheiser to order the cable as the OP did is the best bet.

summation cables are about the last thing you should worry about. The difference between a 20 $ cable and a 4000$ cable is non existent except maybe a placebo effect. There isn't a difference between 20$ cables and monster cables. ONce you pass the basic standard threshold which 20$ wires already pass, you are basically wasting your money.

So now that the cable bullshit has been debunked and unless you buy utterly cheapo stuff then it won't make a blind bit of difference, what else is next to be smashed apart?

Sound cards and AD Converters?

Sound Source?

Power cables make the biggest difference. !0 gauge will unleash more bass and depth

Vocals will be more airy and faster too.
