This hand-braided cable is the perfect upgrade for a pair of headphones, such as the Sennheiser HD580, HD600, HD650, and HD660S.
Why Copper?
Copper is more conductive than gold, aluminum, brass, iron, and bronze. The only metal that outconduces (did we just invent a word?) copper is silver.
Although the premium copper used in this cable is ever-so-slightly less conductive than the silver you’d find in much more expensive cables, that difference is minor. In fact, the resistance difference between two 1,000-foot-long silver and copper wires is a mere 2 ohms .
So silver wins the conductivity race (marginally), but copper is far more resilient. Silver cables degrade into semiconductors (i.e. crap out on you) much faster than copper, making copper the best choice for most people.
