Solder the wires from the new cable to the pcb (similar to how I did with the Wico Q stick seen in the link above). I haven't noticed any performance differences between them, but I prefer the top wired one, simply because it is more comfortable to hold.I'm one of those purists, though, and I've never used anything but what the original designers intended for the system on any of my systems.
