    Would be interested to see which cable you used and how you mounted it for the 560s. I’ve been wanting to do it for those too but I can’t come up with a solution that’s as clear as the 6XX. They’re almost made for it with the way the 5K can clip right onto the band cleanly, etc. I’d rather not use adhesive or velcro or bands, etc to hold it onto the 560s.

      True, I have to use velcro but I do prefer having the cable from the Qudelix pointing down so it’s fine with me.

      This is the cable I use. TRRS so I get sound from both channels. I had to cut the plastic down around the 2.5mm plug to make it fit in the HD560S port. Between the cable I need a male to male adapter.

      A perfect cable would be a bit shorter, male (angled maybe?) 3.5mm to slim male 2.5mm TRRS but I don’t think such a cable exists.

      Also, the suspension strap is actually just a third party Apple Watch nylon solo loop. It’s elastic and works surprisingly well, did it as an experiment but have kept it because of how well it works.

      These are probably my most used headphones, despite owning a pair of HE1000 Stealth. They are just so convenient and comfortable, weighing just 277 g.

        Thanks I’ll see if I can use some of these ideas.
