This cord is identical to the photo. I used it to replace the cord of a cable Sennheiser PX200. I cut it in two (that's a spare). I needed a double cable (for going to each speaker of the headset). It is easy to weld but cons, is not shielded. The audio quality is OK. It seems robust. The downside is that is a bit rigid. In short, the right cable simple but useful for me.
