Worlds better than the original cable

First of all: After 1.5 years says goodbye with me this spare cable with a loose connection. But still, compared to the original cable this is a revelation here. It is much more flexible through the tangle, which is why a cable break is very unlikely even with daily use.

Nevertheless, my cable has now drawn somewhere down the jack is defective. The consequences are wobbles on both channels and an occasional noise. When running with the player in your back pocket so it's not fun anymore.

But hey: 1,5 years for a pair of headphone cables are not too bad a cut in my eyes. Before, I had to procure every few months replacement.
Just a pity that this model with currently 55 is simply expensive pork here and that the trader apparently only 6 months warranty.
