Why not if you can afford it?
I bought my ES55 for about a month or two then later bought a ES10 from garage sales.

cables from your source to amp plays a role in sound. you might find it ridiculous, but when you actually hear sounds through better made cables you will be amazed. really.

for your case, an Audio Technica, I know exactly what kind of cables to tone down the harshness and brightness of sound and give a little more bass and extend a little at the lower frequencies.

quality cable is important, doesnt have to be very expensive but, it is important.

i can give 2 examples. when i bought my first hifi set 3yrs ago, i used a rm5 rca cable, the bass sucked, sound was thin, sounded noisy overall. i tot i made the biggest mistake of my life. then i bought a qed rca and i was like gosh, the noise is reduced, bass has body and extention.

2nd example is more recently, i bought a subwoofer and i used a rm5 rca again while waiting for my monoprice rca. i tot my sub was broken, really, cos on or off, i felt not much bass improvements, sure the sub was moving, but it didnt sound like there was more bass, so i had to increase sub gain. then i swapped it with my monoprice rca. omg, i had too much bass... i had to reduce the gain, finally the bass had extention and i could immediately tell the difference whether the sub was on or not when listening to music. for movies... lets just say... my windows were all rattling... with the rm5 cable not much rattling haha

Bro yuan415, take it slowly la, one step at a time. U don't have to rush in getting the aftermarket/DIY cables. Just listen to ur headphone for quite sometime for now, then only upgrade new cable when u feel like there's really a necessity, eg. when u feel like there's something lacking with the SQ.

PS: The poison has been spilled quite alot in this thread. biggrin.gif

totally agree...

gold cable is the best ( adds flavour i believe )
silver cable is 2nd best but it's quite neutral...
cooper is the basic cable
