does the hd600 have the same cable as hd660s or hd650????

bestghost_potato

I broke my hd660s cable and was wondering if my hd600 cable will fit since they sadly broke when i was moving so im wondering if the cable connecter is the same (the part that connects to the headphones). Will this cable work from amazon?https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0788982JM/ref=ox_sc_act_image_3?smid=AJ2PJNO98VCDO&psc=1

Yes. Even my 580 uses the same cable.

I've had that cable though and it was uncomfortable.

@Den-Fi will the one in the amazon link work as well?

 

Yes, but it's springy and weird and I hate it. I've had it before.

@Den-Fi Springy?

 

The plastic sleeving makes it springy and it's a little long. When you try to put the cable in a comfortable position it's very resistant.

@Den-Fi ok so i should just use the cable from the 600 instead of ordering this 1

 

Yeah. If you did order one, I would get it from Periapt. https://periaptcables.com/

That cable you linked is balanced 4 pin XLR. You have that connection on your amp?

If the cable is the same on both ends, it should work properly (though lots of headphone makers make the attachments proprietary on the end, so be careful when inserting it in case it doesn't properly fit).

 

Sennheiser has manuals which specify which cable it uses depending on the model, then you can find a generic cable on Amazon or Ali to replace it.

 

Does your existing setup use that 4-pin XLR head to plug in? That design is typically for studio headphone amplifiers, but if that's what your amp uses, the cable looks fine :)

@patchboy yes i use a amp, and thanks for the help. Thanks!!!!

For sure! I don't know if you're into soldering, but you could also see if it's cheaper to get the materials and build them yourself. That's how we do CAT6/XLR runs in the studio, saves us a ton of money!

@Den-Fi do they ship to canada

 

I don't believe so.

I asked a few Canadians in my audio server and they said https://www.takefiveaudio.com/  has pretty decently priced cables.

I'd avoid that cable, the cord is not very good. Sound wise it's totally fine. I personally like braided cables, like the ones that come with the current Audezes.

Aside from the 4 pins on the xlr connector not being gold plated, I can't find any fault really. The reviews are pretty good and it looks like a very solid product, with a good price. Take the plunge.
