Richer-RReplacement Spring Coil Cable for Sennheiser HD25/ 560/540/ 480/430 Headphones Earphones

Great quality and price

These cables are very good. My problem was I had a bad tube in my preamp. This is my third set of these cables. The first set I purchased from Sennheiser for double the money and they are the same. I won’t be doing that again and I haven’t. These cables are coiled but they have a lot of stretchability to them. This gives them an extended length of a don’t know maybe 6 feet but then you are really pulling on the connections at the headphone which is not really good. My last problem involved a bad tube on my preamp. So I really didn’t need the last pair of cables that I purchased. But that’s OK I will get around to marring or breaking these cables in the next year or two anyway so it’s always good to have a spare set for this price. I use these for my Sennheiser HD 250 Linear II Headphones which I’ve owned for 20 years. These cables still give the audio reproduction of a new set of phones and they still sound great with these cables.

I'm not a huge fan of how short the original Sennheiser HD25 cable is, so I bought this thinking this would be a good swap. I was so wrong. First, they are heavy, so you will definitely start to feel your neck sore by wearing them for 15-20 mins. But trying to put that aside a month into having it installed, the audio started to go out. I thought it was only the cable itself, and I didn't mind it at first, but after a few more months, it was starting to be obnoxious to the point that I switched back to the original cable. Once I installed the original cable, the audio was still out; I had to keep adjusting the cable connection that goes directly to the ear because now the entrance is permanently damaged.So yeah, I would recommend it if you want to ruin a perfect pair of Senheisser HD25 fast just because you want a longer cable 👎🏻

Excellent Cable with Room for ImprovementI'm really enjoying the Richer-R Replacement Spring Coil Cable; it's a perfect fit for my Sennheiser headphones and works flawlessly. The overall performance is impressive, and it's clear that it’s made with quality in mind. However, there’s a minor improvement that could elevate this product even further – incorporating a right-angle connector would provide added convenience and possibly improve the durability of the connector. Nonetheless, it’s a solid purchase, and I'm pleased with its performance.

This replacement cable is very good. It’s easy to install and the cord length is perfect for most DJ/ studio applications. The only thing I would change is the plug. That should be a right angle connector. The constant pressure of being bent at a right angle damages the line and I’m on my second replacement in under a year.

I had no trouble plugging the connectors into my (fairly old) Sennheiser HD 540 headphones. The connectors are a tight fit but that's what you want them to be. Everything works perfectly. The only thing that I frankly don't understand is why one of the two ends is shorter than the other. This would make sense if your headphone cable came in from behind your back over your right shoulder (left side being notably longer). But if I wanted to do it that way, I would not use a spring coiled cable but rather a straight one. Maybe it is just me, but if you are using the cable hanging down in front you will find that all the weight of the cable itself is pulling on one side.

I’ve used my headphones 3 times since I’ve installed this cable, and I’m already having audio dropouts. You have to be SO delicate when handling them. If you happen to touch the plugs/wires by the earcup, the audio drops out. Went back to my OEM straight cable.

I bought this cable as a suggestion from a user on a Djing forum I was a part of. He said it has great reviews and is just as good as the official Sennheiser coiled cable for the HD25 cans. He was absolutely correct. The cable feels very high quality and the sound of the headphones is not effected in any way negatively. It sounds as great as ever and having a coiled cable really helps me when Djing. I can move freely and not worry about yanking the cable out of my DJ mixer. If you have an HD25, don't waste your money on Sennheisers overpriced cable, pick this up and you won't be disappointed. A steal at this price! 5 stars all around! Peace!
