This is a customizable, thick braided version of our HC-5 headphone cable. You can choose from the various lengths / terminations above, and can use the open field to specify up to 4 custom colors for the cable.
You can choose up to four colors from our color catalog here.
Keep in mind that the braided cable lengths are continuous, so whatever colors you spec in the left and right split sections would also be present in the "main" section of the cable and vice versa.
If you're having trouble deciding on what colors you may want for your cable, take a look at our custom gallery or our instagram for some inspo.
Our thick braided cable assembly is too large for the mini-xlr connectors we use to make our normal modular system happen. But a modular set up for yourself can still be had!
Choose "[M] 4-pin XLR" for the termination option in the dropdown above, and pair this cable up with one of our thick braided "Multi-kit 4" sets at this listing. This provides a modular set up based around full size XLRs which have no problem with the thick braided assembly.
We make different versions of this cable, including standard assembly and thinner braided versions. See the table below for a breakdown with links:
Model |
Description |
HC-5 |
Our standard, modular version of this cable. |
RPL-HC-5 |
A non-modular version of the HC-5 cable. Part of our Replacement Line. You can choose which connector you'd like the headphone cable terminated to. |
CST-HC-5 |
A customizable version of the HC-5. You can choose Length, termination & color(s). |
CST-TWBRA-HC-5 | A customizable twisted braid version of the HC-5. You can choose Length, termination & color(s). |
CST-95BRA-HC-5 |
A customizable braided version of the HC-5. You can choose Length, termination & color(s). |

With these larger braided cables, the cable assembly is too large for our normal modular system connectors. The best way to make a modular set up happen with these types of cables is by doing something like what's available on our MK-4 kit, basing things around full size 4-pin XLRs. A customizable version of the MK-4 in the thicker braided style will be available in the custom shop soon!
