Hi guys,

Just bought another pair of px100 off of amazon, and I thought the 3.5mm plug has ridges in the strain relief. I just got mine and the jack just looks smooth. It is also silver. Take a look at the pics. This one is from amazon through prime. This could be normal but I thought the plug looked different.

Sorry for bad quality and dark photo. Must be my bad memory or something but I remember the grey color being a lot lighter than the one I received. Take a look. Maybe I am just losing it haha. They look pretty dark in real life..sorry for bad photo again.

Anyway let me know what you guys think.

Mine has ridges, but is still silver like yours.

Like Punnisher's, mine have stress relief ridges at the jack.

My headband also has silver 'PX100' text where yours has embossed numbers.

The plug does look different though that could simply be a design revision by Sennheiser. The silver PX100s IIRC are rather dark in colour indeed.

Here are some photos I have for comparison. This was taken in brighter lighting than yours so the silver looks lighter.

Cheers!

Her's probably has that too, you just can't see it from the camera angle.

Correct

Yeah the px100 is there.

Hmm I guess a revision then. I always buy my px100 from amazon to avoid fakes on ebay. It was really strange opening these ones for the first time. The plug, now that I think of it, is much slimmer than the one with the ridges. Perhaps sennheiser just revamped it to match up with the iphone when it came out. Who knows why.

Zorander, thanks for the pics. My px100 looks even darker than that I think in better light. Although my photo is in dark lighting, the grey is pretty close. Very strange. I was going to refinish the px100 drivers to black but now I don't know if I want to do that haha.

OH and thanks guys for the input!!

Sorry to bump this one up but if its mentioned "iphone,ipod" on your package then the plug is modified for the iphone's recessed headphone jack
