Balanced wiring for Sennhesier 800 S


I expect to use Sennheiser 800S with my Ayre QX-5 Twenty, a Roon-ready DAC.  As usual with Ayre, they recommend balanced cabling.  Is that easy to do with the Sennheisers?  I haven't used headphones in years, but I was impressed when I heard the Sennheisers with a McIntosh headphone amp.  Any recommendations?

I have balanced cables with my Sens......I think someone years ago recommended Cardas.......still have them

Check with ZMFheadphones.  They make to order several grades of cables with a variety of connectors.

I have the 800s. Since everyone strongly suggests using balanced cables, I ordered a set from lavricables. (I think @soix had recommended them).  Their website has many options, and the guys at Lauri were great at answering all my questions. I ended up with silver cables, balanced.  I could not be happier and I highly recommend them.

I've used Forza Audio Works and Norne Cables with great results. Both should have many options for different cable options, termination choices, maybe even colors, so you can find something to fit your budget.

Sennheiser makes a high quality balanced cable for the 800s.  I have one and use it with the 800.  It's a good cable.  Works on the 800 and 800s.
