Recommends for 6XX replacement cable(s)?
The wires on the left channel plug, just before the socket are acting up and I need to replace the cable for my Sennheiser 6XX headphones. Looking at Amazon, I see actual Sennheiser cables but one of them does not have the removable 1/4 plug (I use a DAC with 1/8" jack), and I would rather not add even more connection unknowns by using an adapter down to 1/4", and the other Sennheiser cable is far too long for my usage (looking for around 2 meters or just a touch longer. The 6XX have been around for a while and I'm sure I'm not the first to need a replacement cable. I'm actually surprised that Drop doesn't offer them perpetually like they do with the ear pads, which ironically my stock pads are holding up just fine. I'm not looking for $100+ cables here, just a solid replacement for what the 6XX came with. Thanks!

Of course I am not an audiophile. But I'm gradually appreciating better quality of music. I don't have very good amp (only FiiO Q1 MK II (portable)). Among good headphones, I already have OPPO PM3 that I really like and my MD+ is on the way and I am waiting with huge excitement. Among mediocre IEM, I own 1More Triple, F9 PRO, Primo8, and UM PRO 10 (new), and among headphones, WH-1000XM2 and Momentum 2.0. So, now I would like to have the taste of open sound.
A question for MD people - if I do not buy HD6XX now, is there any possibility that I could get a drop few months later or next year?
