  It's my bad, I'll quit posting here.

I was just joking, you don't have to stop posting here. Comparisons are what it's all about.

Ended up selling my HD6XX, good phones and worth trying just not really needed since I own the HD800S which I find quite a bit better.
I certainly would hope a $1700 headphone would sound better than a $200 one by a big margin.

So I sent my 6XX to Sennheiser USA service dept in CT per their website instructions (right channel died after two days) and got a shipping notification from them a few days later. Looks like they are sending me a new HD650 as replacement. The shipment is coming from Wisconsin and should be here tomorrow. Notice the item number and description. Hopefully its a proper HD650 so I won't have to bother massdrop for a longer cable. The dream.

Yep...Sennheiser's pretty good...had my HD700s in twice no question asked.....I actually contacted them directly about the cable and brought this to their attention.

"We will exchange the cable if you need a longer one. As a fast solution I can offer HD 650 cables (length is 9.84 ft.) because we have some of them on stock. The 6 ft. version will take longer as we have to produce them first. I have no confirmation from our cable supplier yet, but I guess it will February or March until we have it.
I am very sorry and I apologize for this.

I love that paracord coloring. Can you link me to it?

Sexy cable, by the way. Well done. I'll be making myself one here an a bit. I may use that same paracord.

Nice, still "sold out" at the local Sennheiser website.
Did you need to pay for it at all or does Sennheiser/Massdrop provide a free cable?
Is it needed to send to short cable back?
Topic at Massdrop seems quiet.

It was free....just emailed a copy of my invoice and quoted the Massdrop announcement from Axel Grell....no request for the original.

Could you kindly indicate the exact e-mail address to which you sent your request?

Each country is different so if you're in the States I'd assume it would be this one.
