The detachable cable is amazing too

I have attempted a few times when the cable starts to fail to open up the housing and solder the wires together to give it new life rather than spend $15-$20 for a new cable, but the wires are lined with some kind of nylon string that burns and prevents the solder from sticking, forcing you to only have the option of replacing the cable

But the cables are detachable

Detachable cable

The SRH440 has an awesome detachable cable and has a strong build

My only complaint (minor as it is) is the cable.

Purchased these headphones back in May 2012 as they were the cheapest headphones that had a detachable cable.

I also wanted a set that offered the replaceable cable and ear cups option as decent headphones can last a long time but these two parts always wear out before decent drivers do

I'm not a big audiophile, but these headphones sound good, and I've had too many pairs of Sennheisers die on me from faulty cables

Sturdy, coiled, locking detachable cable means no accidentally yanking the cable out while moving around

I am glad that the cable is replaceable since cables will always go bad, but these cables seem calculated to go bad and are impossible to repair

I did not like the coil cable

As of this writing (Dec 2013) the cable still has no issues.

Best feature: detachable cable.

Bought these headphones because of the detachable cable since that's where most of my headphones have broken in the past

Nice full size headphones but the cable was getting damaged and had that annoying volume control feature

only gripe is the cable

The materials have held up well against being thrown around in a backpack every so often, but the cable that it comes with and its available replacements are pretty lack-luster

Detachable cable excellent idea to avoid twisting

They have great manipulability, great sound, and solid cabling

Coiled detachable cable

I was most impressed by this attribute.- very crisp and clear sound- removable cable locks in quickly- cable goes to only one sideCons:- small wires that go around hinge for each earphone made me constantly nervous whenever I handled them- bass is very week

The brightness of the audio is over exaggerated, I really like the removable cable-/it would be nice if it came with a second cable that was straight,more suitable when recording as they are usually longer and less apt to get tangled

I also like the cable that unplugs since most problems with headphone are cable

Very Durable, Detachable cable (great for replacing if anything ever happens

I also like the cable that unplugs since most problems with headphone are cable

hurts after long periods of times and also love the long cable.

All headphones should have this feature, in my opinion.- Coiled cable, doesn't tangle as easily and takes much less space than a regular cable

had I known the audio quality of these headphones is as good as

I've never owned a pair of headphones as expensive as

This plastic cap has broken on my right cup and its about to break on the left as

the Seller who sent me my headphones needs to be commended, and blessed TEN-TIMES over for getting me my NEW EARS as quickly as they did
