Sennheiser Genuine Replacement Short Cable HD598 HD598SE HD598SR HD598CS HD599 HD558 HD518 HD579 HD569 HD559 Headphones with 1/8" 3.5mm Plug

Stays in, sound absolutely perfect, cable is the right length and fit, wonderful replacement, no regrets.

Saved me 100s of dollars and kept an unbelievable pair of headphones alive!

The cable is pricey, considering it's just an audio cable. I bought these a few years ago, but I still wonder if it does make a sound quality difference. I feel like the original thick cable you get with the HD560S sounds better, or it's a placebo. Other reviews mention the loss in sound quality so it's probably real. The original cable was just too long and tangled around my desk chair so this does the job. I guess I can see the cable being short like some others mentioned, but I have a DAC in front of my PC, so it's the perfect distance.

I was looking for a shorter cable for my Sennheiser HD 400 Pro's since my audio system sits close by on my desk. I did not want to deal with either of the stock cables that were 6' and 9' long. This genuine short cable fits as it should and there is no loss in sound quality. If anything, since the cable is shorter, it makes it a smidge easier to drive the headphones (less impedance). Highly recommended!

Snagged the original cord on my HD 598 SR's on a door handle and it destroyed the side that plugs into the headset. I bought a cheap generic cable, hoping to put these headphones back in use, but it would not fit into the headphones. There seems to be a little groove that only fits with the authentic cable. This did the trick, but I wish it was a little cheaper.

Genuine for sure. Steep on cost, but it really is the best sounding cable. A little more volume and a little more crisp on all bass mids and highs. than long one, just marvelous cables b it's also a little thinner.

We got this cord on 10/5, as of today 10/13, all sound has cut out from it and it is no longer viable. The durability is abysmal. The length is very inconvenient, even for a plug in that's on the desk in question.We have always loved sennheiser products but this was rather disappointing.

Seemed to be a perfect replacement, but when I got it I found it did not fit my particular Sennheiser model. The plug that needed to fit the ear piece was the correct size but the rubber base of the plug was too fat. Luckily I had a nail file that was rough enough to carefully resize the round bottom part (which conveniently had a score at about the needed quarter inch) after which it fit and worked just fine.Although I had bought the headset here on Amazon, I no longer had anything with the model number and couldn’t seem to go back far enough into my purchase history to find it. Sad that such a pricey headset came with such a flimsy cable. Before buying a new one I tried to repair the old one and found it severely lacking…too thin wires, too stretchy wire sheaths making it impossible to strip, not enough shielding. My old Beats cable was much better, but both ends were eighth inch.
