I searched and could not find anything about replacement or upgrade cables for IEM's, so (hopefully) a new topic.

I have a pair of JH Audio JH5's that while ancient still fit very well and sound good. But the cable has oxidised which was starting to turn the connector pin sockets on the ear pieces green, i think i have caught it, and cleaned in time...

So i am looking for a new cable. Does anyone have any recommendations for upgrade cables?   
TIA!

Thanks Chris, i should have said i view the same cable as a last resort.
Since posting i have found Moon Audio who state that with JH Audio they have developed improved cables, so right now i have a choice of "improved" or the same.
