I’m curious they are Ribbon Headphones, you’re trying to voice?
You want the mids to be warmer and the highs tamed a bit?
Now you know what a TONE control is used for..
OFC, NOT OCC cable. HIGH stand count # 16-12, with PTFE.
You have to be VERY careful with silver over copper in SC or low strand count cable.
Even a #12 is to big for just headphones. OFC multi wire WEAVE with a high strand count. NO SILVER.. Use red copper ends crimped into place. NO SOLDER. Unless you tin correctly.. or use copper Allen heads.
30.00 usd.. If you want the best for warmth anyway..
Here is a tid bit.. hook up ONLY the left one, not both at the same time.. SEE if you hear the difference and voice the cable the way it sounds the best. In other words reverse the direction, it may help A LOT..
I'd try a contact enhancer too with the copper and let them settle.
In 50 hours, they are going to sound the way they are doing to sound..
