MiCity Replacement Upgrade Audio Extension Cable Cord Lead Jack For Sennheiser IE8 IE80 IE8I Headphones Retardant silver plated cable with shielded plug

Haven't used these earphones for a while as I use them as a backup, I went to get it out of my rucksack today, and the cheap plastic coating of this cable had turned green in places, and in other places turned into this sticky goo which got everywhere. Not sure if the earbuds themselves are OK as I now have no cable to test them with, but they were coated in this stuff, so I'm not optimistic. I assume the cable melted during the summer, so as this cable can't withstand English weather, do not buy it.

Same length as original: fits into the box they give you. Okay quality covering, with a similar shield to original. Gives the same quality sound as the originals from what I could tell.Edit:Lasted 3 months of use before the cabling started to peel near the connection - seems like the cable isn’t meant for pockets.

Best yet. Strong. With well-protected connections.

Ok overall but expensive and the vulcanised rubber on the wires is sort of sticky so they get tangled easily
