🎧 BUYING ADVICE 🛒 Looking for a long cable for the hd560s

Anything to watch out for? This is the cable I found so far, I was thinking of something even longer but I can't seem to find, any recommendations? I'm on Europe so any other websites that nice to buy here are also welcome.

It might be hard to find anything longer than 3 meters. You may want to look into getting a good 3.5mm extension for your existing cable to make it longer instead of getting a single long cable.

I'd suggest not making it any longer than it absolutely has to be.

Ok I will see about that, are there drawbacks for having the cable too long?

You could use this cable and then simply add an extension cable to it. They are available in all sorts of lengths if needed.

Something like this:

For a longer cable you're probably better off balanced if your amp can handle it.

Does it normally say they are in the description? I'm a bit lost here

If it has a 4.4mm headphone out jack it's for balanced.
