Sennheiser Replacement Cable - HD 650 & Apogee

There is nothing new about Sennheiser, these are wonderful products, the original parts that deliver the sound. I was realy impressed though by the seller ‘Audio Equip’s service’ who were fast replying within a couple of hours and resolved the matter immediately. They gave me 4 days and exactly 4 days later, I received a replacement. Thank you so much. This seller should deserve an award! - from New York

Good quality cord that’s the right length for use with a computer or personal audio device. It’s well made and has absolutely no impact on the sound, just like every other well made audio cable of adequate gauge for it’s length.

Been jogging with it daily and no complaints on the sound. The shorter cable makes it much easier when moving around. Old cable had an issue where I had to rotate it to a certain point to hear.Concerned about the cable on the right that plugs in to my HD6xx though since I had to jam it in before the right ear of the headphones would work.***EDIT***After using it during the work week since April 2021, I've broken the cable. The stress on the 3.5mm jack from constantly moving in my pocket while plugged in and also jogging broke it. I tried unbending it to straighten the metal part of the plug but to no avail.

This cord is 4.6 feet versus the 10-foot cord that came with the headphones. Also the plug on the 4.6-foot cord is 1/8 inch versus the 1/4 inch on the 10-foot cord. The plug makes it easier to use with portable devices to include the portable DAC (Digital-Analog-Converter) that I use. And, I frequently entangled the longer, 10-foot cord in the settings I typically use my headphones where as the shorter cord alleviated that problem. As the item was from Sennheiser, the quality was the same as my 10-foot cord. The five-star rating was an easy one to make.

This cable seems more substantial than the original Sennheiser HD600 cable, and the shorter length is much more manageable. As for sound quality, it seemed that the high frequencies are more pronounced, but I'm sure that's a placebo effect. The plugs are a little too difficult to remove to do extensive A/B testing.

I've had 2 of these cables start crackling / cutting out on me in one ear. This doesn't happen with my other wired headphones. It's frustrating to have this happen when the cable is so expensive.

Good quality. Works great

Not totally convinced that these are actually made by Sennheiser as all the cable end connectors are slightly different than my OEM (HD600) cable. But the quality seems good and the connectors that go into the ear cups seem to fit and hold with the appropriate snugness. The cable is slightly beefier than the OEM but still reasonably supple. This is the length cable that should have come with my HD600's. I have no idea why the OEM cable was so long (9+ feet!)- a short cable should come standard and a long cable should be the upgrade/option. But I digress. I knocked off a star because of A) the price, which seems a little expensive for what it is and B) I can't use the OEM 1/8" to 1/4" adapter and this doesn't come with one (which really is not that big of a deal).
