What about retermination?

 

[soloz2]

what plug did that start out as? A neutrik?

Don't forget about the Shure MPA. It's a high quality iPhone plug that also includes the mic/switch. Seems like the best idea, since you not only get the right sized plug, but you can use whatever high end headphones/earbuds/iems you want AND you can talk, too.

Aside from the MPA, that Griffin does look pretty nice. I guess if you don't need the mic, that's a good solution.

A good functional solution, but probably a serious compromise when it comes to sound quality. I've heard good things about the sound quality through the Belkin adapter, but that thing isn't just awkward, it's ridiculous. How could they possibly have needed all that space to achieve such a simple goal?

I've gotta go with threEchelon.

If you're on here, chances are you're competent enough to make your own cable. If not, I'm sure someone on here could make one for you. Using silver wires probably beats the sh!t out of anything sold by Belkin or Griffin.

Does anybody knows how the little button in the iPhone earbud works?

If it's really simple, It would be possible to make an adapter wich plugs into the iPhone, has an regular headphone plug and a long cable just with the button (or maybe also a microfone). It would be possible to put it together with any good IEM and have the original iPhone earbud funcionalities. I like that button to pause/skip.

Is it possible?

Like this (in the post the kinda draw i did looks like crap but i thin u can see it by pasting it in the notepad):


adaptor plugged in the iPhone
|
_________ | ______=O regular headphone
| /
plug o==<
iPhone | \_______________(==) Button and mic
