Sennheiser HD650 - Cardas or Equinox cable?

Hey Ross,

Many a folk prefer the Equinox (or even others) to the Cardas. Take a look at www.head-fi.com, and search there. A thread similar was just created a couple days ago IIRC.

Good luck,

I compared the Cardas with Zu Mobius on my 650s. The Zu is great! No glare, natural & relaxed but lots of detail & image specificity. I stopped looking after I got the Zu. (The Zu is a bit stiff, so I would get a meter longer than I needed. It was also a bit tricky to attach; about 15 minutes of work.) The Cardas was too forward. 'never heard the Equinox.

you can't go wrong with the zu mobius. i heard the cardas and didn't like it, the sound was quite unnatural.

Thanks for all your suggestions. After a lot of searching and reading, I chose the Equinox cable and a Singlepower MPX3 SLAM amp. The amp will take about two weeks to be built and get here. I'll post my impressions of the cans and amp after 200+ hours burn-in.

Have a Happy New Year everyone.

Ross
