Batty Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Looking around to find either a 1/4" extension or a replacement 3m cable for Massdrop Hifiman HE-4xx (same fitting as HE-400 series). Anyone recommend somewhere apart from ebay? Edited July 16, 2018 by Batty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Can you take photo of the plugs please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batty Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) The plugs on the amp end is 3.5mm stereo and the phones end is 2.5mm stereo x 2. It will probably be easier to find an extension for the 1/4 ". Edited July 16, 2018 by Batty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 If you have dual inputs for the headphone amp I recommend using the Sennheiser cable for hd500 which still can be bought very cheaply then using 1/4 adapter on each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sakabatou Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I think it's the same connectors as Sennheiser HD700, if that makes it easier to find. Probably easier and faster to get the 1/4" extension: https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/collections/cables/products/grado-labs-4-5m-extension-cable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Pity it’s not stereo 2.5mm otherwise you could have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hifiman just uses the cheaper option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
