Default Recabling of Audeze LCD-X
I am starting new project - recabling of Auzdeze LCD-X.
Stock headphone cable is not good.

I received yesterday 2 naked cables from Kiev and today - cheap connectors.
It will be my first own experience in such tweaking.
If I will see good results I gonna order expensive connectors (probably - Furutech).

Default 1st cable
1st cable is ready.
I started from vintage german copper wires (1950).

Sound is sharp, predictable for unbroken copper wires.
I gonna brake-in 100-150 hours.

I've heard some Nordost cable on Alpha Prime, I guess it's too much high frequency.

I bought Vanquish for my Primes, but on LCD-3's the Nordost sounds awesome after break-in...

I have a couple of cables for my Audeze LCD-X, but I really like the way the Wireworld Nano Silver Eclipse sound with them.

Short comparo of stock cable and white (above on photo) shows unconditional surrender of first.
