    What's the best way to connect my 1/4 (6.35mm) headphone cable to 4.4mm Pentaconn jack

    Got it, thank you. I asked the Audeze guys for their recommendation and they sent a couple of expensive options, now I get why. I've never soldered iron, so guess I shouldn't risk it... I guess I'll ask around to see if someone can do it for me. Otherwise, I'll just buy another cable. Thank...

    What's the best way to connect my 1/4 (6.35mm) headphone cable to 4.4mm Pentaconn jack

    Hi - I have a pair of Audeze LCD-2 and an iFi Hip DAC. My Audeze come with an 1/4 (6.35mm) cable and I want to use them with the iFi 4.4mm Pentaconn balanced jack. What's the best way to connect them? I've looked around and I can't find an adapter that matched the two. Thank you
