First off this is what happend...
I use my headphones alot, I'm always pluging them into my CD player, MP3, and to my computer. I'll prob go back in forth from all three over 10-15 times a day. I used to do that with my old $15 sony headphones, and they lasted. Still work fine and had them for over a year. I just got these Sennheiser headphones off of ebay less then 2 weeks ago. They were brand new, still in sealed box.
Today when I was listening to my mp3 player with my headphones, I triped over the cord and my MP3 player which was on the shelf fell to the floor. Now the plug that connects to the MP3 players headphone jack is a tiny tiny bit bent. You can't even really tell just by looking at it. The sound quality droped dramatically. I have to push in the plug really tight and hold it to get the true original sound I had before, otherwise is sounded faded and weak. Like cheap wires that aren't getting a good connection.
I was thinking about purchasing a replacement cable. Most likely two cables so I don't have to keep unpluging it as much. Keep one cable hook up to my computer and the other one hooked up to my stereo. The Sennheiser replacement cables are only about $13 dollars each.
I was thinking, well, might as well get some better cables. Seems like a good reason to upgrade. I need cables anyway, a little extra mula won't bring me down much and more then likely be well worth it.
I'm looking for some advice on what cable would not only better sounding then that of the stock but a cable that is strong and will last and goes with the headphones. I seen some people with bright blue cables or bright white, I personally just think that looks ugly. I would want it to mach my headphones and stereo setup. Everything is black with some gold here and there.
I only need about an 8' ft cable. Min would be 6' ft, but 8'-10' would be best. I'm not looking to spend no $100 bucks on some cables, not right now anyway. More like under $30, if possible, under $25.
Also, website links will help. Thanks.
