Ahdui, Belden mini or Belden BIG brother, the Lightning Rod cable?
Or you want to try the power cables? I heard it sounds good! :P
If impressing/being impressed is how it gets you around, forget it. It is not gonna happen.

I've recently completed the kramer mod on my ksc75s. My ksc75s have been burnt in for 300-400 hours now. I've found the bass to be loose and muffled. The mids and the trebles pale in comparison to the overwhelming bass. However, after the kramer mod, the treble start appearing, the mids brought foward. The bass got tighter and more controled without decreasing in the "OMPH!".

I would recommend the mod to anyone who finds the ksc75s muddy and muffled. Drill holes two at a time, you might want to gradually increase the number of holes to get the right amount of treble increase.

Next up for me... RECABLING! :))
Wait, What?
