International customers, please read:

Non-warranty service (re-terminations, authentications, etc.) will incur return-shipping costs, in addition to the service charges.

International shipping can be quite expensive. We only ship with FedEx, as delivery is gauranteed, and lost packages are insured.

We must state an accurate and honest value for the item being returned. For re-terminations & authentications, we declare the value of the service performed. We can not declare a value of zero, or under-value the price, as doing so puts our ability to continue shipping internationally in jeopardy. It is likely your country will charge dutues and taxes based on the value we delcare.

Warranty repairs are returned to the customer at our expense.

NOTE

Cables found to be counterfeit will be indellibly marked with a branding iron and/or laser engraver, and returned as-is, including the partial disassembly necessary to determine whether they are authentic.

Please describe in detail the service you're requesting, or the problem you're experiencing. If you have talked or emailed with somebody at Cardas Audio about this already, please indicate that here.*

IF you are requesting that we put new spades on your speaker cable, please tell us the size of the spades you need.

Note: There is not a database of the required spade sizes for all amps & speakers. We reply upon you to tell us the spade size(s) that you require.

Please let us know the model of headphones with which you're going to use the re-terminated cable.*

Nearly every headphone has its own connector. Even within the same brand, each model of headphone is likely to require a different connector.

Even models with similar names often use different connectors. For example, the HifiMan HE-6SE uses a different connector than the HiFiMan HE-6SE v2 🤯

And, unfortunately, there isn't an accurate, frequently updated database that lists every headphone and their required connectors.

In order to ensure that we put the correct connectors on your headphone cable, please attach a clear, close-up photo of the connector(s) on your current (stock) headphone cable. Ideally, include an item of standard size in the image, such as a US coin, or a tape measure or set of calipers showing the dimensions of the connector.

Non-US coins are acceptable, however please tell us what the coin is, so that we can google its dimensions.

Here are a few examples of how to photograph the connectors:
