I’m getting real tired of everyone on Massdrop calling every cable drop snakeoil. Yes, cables don’t improve the sound unless you are using ultra-cheap China special cables. But $110 for this cable, or something like $65 for those Venture Electronics cables is very reasonable. There’s nothing wrong with buying a $65 cable for a pair of $200 HD6XXs if you want a nicer cable. And if you want a balanced cable then there aren’t many options below $60, so that’s very reasonable. In this case this is cheaper than buying replacement stock cables for the HD800S, how is it snakeoil? When we get into the $300+ silver cables that claim to improve sound quality, that is snake oil. But hey, if you have $500 to spend and already have tons of headphones and want to buy a $500 braided boutique cable because it’s super nice, all power to you. Just know that it is not improving sound quality.

CokemanLike everything else it’s Buyer Beware. Some but not all cables sold on Massdrop have been absolute garbage. As long as Massdrop allows returns then no problem taking a chance. That’s why I rely so much on reviews from those who have actually purchased.
