The entry-level Parsec Headphone Cable improves upon its predecessor, the original Cardas Headphone Cable, with more finely stranded conductors, and improved dielectricsand shielding. It brings added dynamic range, and better imaging to any headphone.

Manufacturer Information

The original Cardas Headphone Cable was developed 16 years ago, originally as a one-off project for Georges daughter Angela, who was a disk jockey at a radio station in Oregon. Through constant daily use, she went through a couple of stock cables, and suggested to her father that he make a cable for her. Her request turned into a product development project, which turned into Cardas’ first headphone upgrade cable.
