Untangle and straighten it out long, use something to hold it tight on either end. Add heat, start with a hair dryer and if that doesn't do the trick try a heat gun, but be careful not to melt the cable.

If I look down and see the Y connector is twisted, I'm taking my headphones off and twisting them around to get it straight lol

That's my biggest pet peeve because it gets out of control too fast and then becomes annoying.

I've never had this problem, but it's because I wrapped my cable in a plastic spiral protector that effectively makes the cable thicker. Now my reason for the spiral protector is not to prevent tangles, it's because I have a cat who has chewed through at least half a dozen cables with soft rubber coatings (including some painfully expensive headphone cables), but he leaves hard plastic alone.

If you wanted to try it yourself, you can search for the cable protectors on amazon, they're cheap. The catch is that (a) that they make the cable a fair bit bulkier , and (b) that that they take forever to install.

I also have the same dac/amp on my desk, good choice!
