It is no problem for me as I usually listen while sitting down in front of my computer and I loop the cable to the side of my chair with enough free-play so they don't rub. but for you it may be depending on your listening habits. 
2. If you already have a Balanced Cable (I did not) we both know the diminishing returns of such things as cables.  I think the money you would shell out for this upgrade may not necessarily meet your expectations. I am inclined to say the biggest difference in this equation is exploiting your headphone amplifier's topology to its fullest, not necessarily the voodoo magic of cables. |
Serge.......Appreciate the insight. .
