Sennheiser HD-25 Coiled Cable

This cable is heavy duty and feels like it could take a lot of stress and strain, which is good obviously if you are using them outside of a studio - throwing them in your bag etc. The only thing that is annoying is that there is a long stretch of straight cable coming from the headphones before the coiled part actually begins. This is not such a big problem in the studio but on the move it means you have a big bulky length of cable that you can either let hang around your waist or stuff into a pocket or bag.

Regardless this cable is a lot better than the straight cable that comes with the headphones and can definitely take a lot more abuse. I also had a third party coiled cable for a time but it wore out really fast as the wire wasn't as thick or well protected at the jack. So I would definitely recommend this cable over other, cheaper coiled cables.

This cable is rugged and well made, will probably last some years. It is also very easy to install, two screws and that's it!. Only thing is that it's super heavy!

I use this daily during broadcasting and I feel the cable put strain on my head, pulling it to the side. The HD-25 are way to light and small to be able to work with such a heavy coiled cable!

I have since then switched back to shorter non-coiled cable and like it much better. I really wished this would have worked, but since it's heavy duty and this long (shorter would be weird) I cant say it's usable with HD-25.
