Hey guys,

Out of the following two adapters (I know they're not that great), which one would you say is better quality in terms if performance and durability?

I've been using a Griffin aux cable for a few years now and it's very well constructed.
 
The Fiio looks a little thicker though. 
 
Also they're two different cables - the Fiio is for headsets, the Griffin is just an audio cable, which explains the higher price of the Fiio cable.

I ended up buying the Griffin, knowing that it was more durable, although both are probably of the same bad quality materials. As of sound quality or that sort, I'm sure these cables wouldn't contribute to much. They're not pure silver cables or anything special..

I'm aware one is for headsets and one is just a standard audio cable, but that wasn't of much concern to me as I'm using it as a cable out from my M-100's so I could use my customade headphone cable:)
