The build quality has changed

I just renewed my pair of pl30 after three years of intensive use, they always work very well although the jack slightly damaged (very normal in my sport of use) but I had lost all the accessories.
I had to buy another site a little more expensive (but which now no longer sell them)

I am surprised and disappointed to see some changes:

- Bi-flanges caps disappeared (when it was the best)
- The super convenient storage hard shell with zip also disappeared, giving way to a disproportionately large pockets soft leatherette
- The son are less good qualities. On the one hand they seem much more fragile but increasingly they are quite rigid, while they keep a convoluted shape while on the first version they were flexible and easily unraveled.

the only positive change is a bent tip.

Against him by the sound is always the same, very good.

But I'm really disappointed with the reduction of accessories and quality of son ...
