Talk about pushing $20 headphones to the limit lol

100% worth it
Well if you like tinkering
If not just stick to the Ultra mod as that makes the biggest difference
Time for another dump!
First, I really like the cheap yoga block headphone stand thing, but don’t like having to get them with a weird exercise company logo on them. So I ordered a bunch (too many honestly lol) with our logo on them, got them in the biggest dimensions possible, and as heavy as I could (a smidge over 9 oz) so that they’re better for actually holding a headphone than the standard amazon special. Here’s the white one in a pic below, and then the other colors will be in the dump somewhere I’m sure:
We did another limited run, this time of some HD800 cables. Sold out pretty quick. If you got one, thanks a ton! They start shipping tomorrow.
Some more braided stuff:

Some day I’m gonna make up my mind as to exactly what I want to do for a custom order. Too many options…
Don’t worry though, that hasn’t stopped me from sending any money your way already. I’ve already got stock red HC-9, HC-1, IC-6, and Multi-Kit 2…

Time for some more:
First, we finally launched some cables for the dual 2-pin fostex cans and the HD800 line of Sennheisers, here’s some pics of those cables:
Of course we have to goof off with custom stuff too:
And then I forgot to set aside a pic of a stock fostex cable, but here’s a custom one:
Ok on to more random stuff:
The steadily requested NDH20 cable:
Sometimes you need even more ground:
Thought the lighting was nice

IEM Stuff:
Braided stuff getting requested more frequently:
Not everything has to be modular.
And here’s a few more bread and butter stragglers I like the look of:
Alright before I end it… Reminder that if you’re an HFG member email us if you’d like a discount (it’s nothing too crazy, but a nod to the HFG community so shh haha) with your order. That being said, don’t do that this weekend, cause you can use the code MIDYEARGEAR21 to get 10% off through Tuesday.
Hope everyone has a great holiday.

This looks very similar to the stuff Rean / Neutrik get and slap their name on (or what we get and don’t put a logo on). NC3MX-B or NC4MX-B are the Neutrik part numbers. I’d assume it’s about the same as the Neutrik stuff I mentioned. And if you’ve never used those, they’re solid 
.
Thanks, AFAIK Neutrik makes the connectors themselves, the one on Aliexpress looks like a Neutrik clone but it looks better than the WM so I will roll the dice.
Can I just say that we need more white cables?
I feel like I haven’t seen many of them. @brux is one of the few companies that even make the connectors white 
I don’t know about others, but I find white cables so clean and sexyy

I posted this on another forum as well
I’m after cables. I like the look of the Kimber Axios. The wood and weaving are at a stunning level. Are there any other suggestions, for cables with that quality of workmanship?
The weave looks quite like Capistrano stuff to me, although I don’t think they do wood connectors
I’ve been on his Etsy page but say’s his not available. I’ve messaged Skedra and Norne about cables but didn’t hear back from either, at this point I’m thinking of just building my own. I’m a machinist so the wood will be no issue, I’ve done a blank on pine as a test. It’s the rest that will be huge trial and error for me.
Only tangentially audio related:
Parts list:
- Jamara 2.5mm² Silicone Cable
- Hirschmann LAS N WS (4mm Banana plug)
- Delock 65421 (5.5x2.1mm Barrel socket)
- Delock (5.5x2.1mm Barrel plug)

Nicely done - taking the extra step to add in R&L indicators is a class touch !
