Focal Clear Headphone Cable Problem

Hi.

My balanced (4 prong) cable that came with the headphones has a loose connection somewhere under the insulation. Anyone know where to either

a) Buy an upgraded bal. cable. or

b) Get the factory cable repaired.

If anyone has had a good upgrade experience, I'm all ears.

I'm constantly having to wiggle the cable to get my Right Channel back. I'm suppose to relax and enjoy the music!

 

Tnx !

For the best quality and price, I've been very satisfied with Sky Audio Cables.

You might check out Lazuli Reference FC. It’s 1299.00 for 3 m 4 pin balanced. Excellent cable for the price.

I highly recommend taking a look at LavriCable as they make high quality cables at very reasonable prices and fly below the radar.  I got an excellent 1.2m balanced cable with silver wire and top connector/plugs for only $253 for my Hifiman Arya Stealths and it’s a big improvement over the stock cable.  Here’s a link to the cable and how I configured mine.
