bro iamyuanwu i doubt different canare cables have diff sound coz the core inside i find is the same.. just that l4e6s has 4 cores and l2t2s has 2 cores.. the koss recable is PCwork's trade secret lol.. if ppl know the the cable and experiment till it sounds the same as his product.. how can he cari makan doh.gif

i have 2 superlux here.. and a bunch of canare l4e6s and also a few different connectors .. but both of them aren't mine so i can't test them yet and give a review .. but im going back melaka tomorrow tongue.gif by then i can test the cables + heaphone hehehehe

QUOTE(iamyuanwu @ Aug 13 2010, 05:22 PM)
I have huge respect for him & not dissing him or his products. Just that I wanna try my hands on DIY-ing my own cables. Even if he divulge the information about the cable, I don't think he would lose any business... there will be lots of people who would pay for the quality the PcWork's work, & lots of people who would rather pay to have it done than to DIY themselves.
*
what i meant was not for ppl to DIY but for ppl who actually offer the same service as PCwork and yet have the same kind of sound and quality(maybe better).. wouldnt that be bad for PCwork, it will be unfair also since PCwork spent lots of time experimenting different cables to get this final product,and for someone to just snap the effort just like that...
so i doubt information of those cable will be obtained easily tho if you insist you can try matching with all the cables in jalan pasar/music equipment and accessories shops but in order to do that you'll need to get one of PCwork's koss re-cable first smile.gif

now we need this biggrin.gif prolly will reduce some heavy bass and makes it sound more linear, and a huge increase in comfort

err.. unfortunately its 668b hahaha....... i guess its due to a proper DAC and amp :/ i tested at the shop also i was like lol.. and when i test it again back here i was amazed
with the foam intact i felt that its very veiled and the sticker cause a rattling sound... i persuaded hitman to take em off, now with both of them removed and the now exposed driver .. totally clear lol
now its still in the burn in.. gonna let it ready then only start with crazy mods.. gonna try tame the bass a first biggrin.gif the mids and highs are already good enough already

also jazzy.. the other shop i assume is also intsraco sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif coz there's 2 shops named instraco

yup.. you should try that biggrin.gif, it'll be more balanced but take note about the cables sweat.gif split cables tangles easily.. or i suggest putting the cable across the headband instead of having split wires (it was my intention to do that)
im darn tempted to try out the bluetack, foam and lastly some sponge mod; i also have a pair of phillips velour pads which should fit onto the superlux snugly.. really wanna how it will sound like with these
unfortunately i lost my chance to mod that pair, i doubt i can try to do any mods on the HD668b coz i have assignments to handle and the headphone is not mine to begin with .. rclxub.gif

so i am looking forward for bro yuanwu's mod tongue.gif maybe bring it to jaben during a gathering rclxms.gif

i manage to pick up some really unique cables... its pure copper solid core cables scavenged from a telephone line lol.. not the one indoor but the one on telephone posts (dont ask me where i find them wink.gif)

very tempted to use them and make a cable for the HD668b hahahahha

yea its pretty fragile.. but there's a very hard and solid steel wire sleeved together with the copper which i doubt the cable can bend at all doh.gif (its meant for outdoor usage after all hahahahah)
but i guess its worth the try for the sake of trying since its free biggrin.gif
