Had acquired after the original had after heavy use approved cable. The processing of the cord and terminals is OK even if I'd rather have two straight plug. Here you just seem to have the original copy, is a matter of taste. The microphone unit is unfortunately very unstable, the pressure point is not good, or virtually non-existent. The microphone works, and so far has yet none of my interlocutors complained about poor quality. All in all OK, the switches were not the ultimate for me.
