I have acquired a first pair of two a-jays in December 2010, and she just let me go, a bad contact at the cable because it was often folded in my pocket. This was had to the straight form fitting. I recommended the same model as the price / quality ratio is excellent, and I was pleasantly by this "new" version. Indeed, the connection is now bent and reinforced to avoid the type of problem that I encountered.
Jays therefore knew to evolve his headphones without sacrificing their quality workmanship.
