    I'm in the midst of hardwiring my HE-6. While it's not going exactly as smoothly as I would have hoped in removing the glued connector assembly from the cups to get my cable in there (if you have any advice....) I have mutilated the connectors beyond repair so there's no going back now! :eek:

    So my old-school SMC Hifiman cables are no use to me anymore. If you would like one or both (in USA) they are yours.

    GONE Cable 1: Stock HE-6 cable, black and thin, braided, about 6 feet long and terminates in 4-pin XLR (I am keeping the XLR to 1/4" adapter the headphone comes with)

    GONE Cable 2: DIY cable, Canare Star Quad 21awg, green and black paracord, braided. About 9-10ft long and terminates in a neutrik 4 pin XLR. It's made in a similar manner to a short guide I made here http://www.superbestaudiofriends.org/index.php?threads/cable-building.86/page-6#post-79718 . However this is the first braided cable I ever did, so it is not perfect aesthetically (I'll get some pics up tonight)

    GONE SMC Connectors: I have somewhere around 3-5. If you are a DIYer they are yours

    Edit: Both cables and connectors are gone

    Can I add one then? Good old braided cord with blue and purple old hifiman connector 4 pin XLR cable. Buyer pays shipping, I live in Sweden. Thus northern europe (or even scandinavia) preferred.

    edit: canare, the cable has never been used... ended up getting tired of my HE-560 before it even arrived. It's 2.5 meters. Neutrik XLR and viablue splitter.

    Cool, PM me your address. I think a simple normal envelope with stamps will work for this one. Looks like there's 4 (With some extra crimps because I didn't use them)

    And that's it for me, but I guess the thread should remain open for @KurtSvensson 's generous Euro offer

    Whatever you wish. I probably need to create my own thread or something. Nobody has bothered contacting me yet.

    I'll be honest, I'm skipping this one. Not only is it overseas but you seem to be posting almost exclusively in the sales forum. Big turn off, I want to give it to an actual SBAF'er, regardless if he/she is a rando or not.

    Ended up "selling" to @moosecraft , he's from Sweden so it was far easier. On top of that he looks like a member of this community albeit not that active of a poster. That's fine by me.
