I use the latest version of HRD with my K3. The cables are simple sound card/speaker cables with 1/8" jacks. When we were shutting down my office I actually snagged from the trash what is basically a large sound card pair, grouped into a single rubber sheathing. One green connector and one pink connector on each end. Works perfectly.
