Richer-R Replacement Spring Coil Cable for Sennheiser HD25/ 560/540/ 480/430 Headphones Earphones

These cables are very good. My problem was I had a bad tube in my preamp. This is my third set of these cables. The first set I purchased from Sennheiser for double the money and they are the same. I won’t be doing that again and I haven’t. These cables are coiled but they have a lot of stretchability to them. This gives them an extended length of a don’t know maybe 6 feet but then you are really pulling on the connections at the headphone which is not really good. My last problem involved a bad tube on my preamp. So I really didn’t need the last pair of cables that I purchased. But that’s OK I will get around to marring or breaking these cables in the next year or two anyway so it’s always good to have a spare set for this price. I use these for my Sennheiser HD 250 Linear II Headphones which I’ve owned for 20 years. These cables still give the audio reproduction of a new set of phones and they still sound great with these cables.

I try not to leave bad reviews unless something has really gone astray, but this item needs to be avoided at all costs. I have an old pair of Sennheiser HD480 that use somewhat rare connectors. You can purchase an extremely expensive cable from Sennheiser, but like most headphone enthusiasts, I tried to look for a better deal. Usually you can trust knockoff cables (like this one) to last a couple of years and then you can cheaply replace them again. Unfortunately, this item is definitely a "you get what you paid for." I attempted to take the cable out of my headphones to do some routine cleaning on my set of 480s and the cable connectors would not come out of the headphone no matter what I used (fingers, pliers, etc.). After enough tugging, the cable ripped from the connector, which then required almost an hour of disassembling the headphones and digging the cable prongs out of the headphone connection points (check out the picture). If you never plan to remove your cables from their removable positions, this cable might be worth the cost, but if you ever plan to switch your cables out or remove them for cleaning, stay away from this cable at all costs.

Great quality and price

This replacement cable is very good. It’s easy to install and the cord length is perfect for most DJ/ studio applications. The only thing I would change is the plug. That should be a right angle connector. The constant pressure of being bent at a right angle damages the line and I’m on my second replacement in under a year.

Excellent Cable with Room for ImprovementI'm really enjoying the Richer-R Replacement Spring Coil Cable; it's a perfect fit for my Sennheiser headphones and works flawlessly. The overall performance is impressive, and it's clear that it’s made with quality in mind. However, there’s a minor improvement that could elevate this product even further – incorporating a right-angle connector would provide added convenience and possibly improve the durability of the connector. Nonetheless, it’s a solid purchase, and I'm pleased with its performance.

I bought this cable as a suggestion from a user on a Djing forum I was a part of. He said it has great reviews and is just as good as the official Sennheiser coiled cable for the HD25 cans. He was absolutely correct. The cable feels very high quality and the sound of the headphones is not effected in any way negatively. It sounds as great as ever and having a coiled cable really helps me when Djing. I can move freely and not worry about yanking the cable out of my DJ mixer. If you have an HD25, don't waste your money on Sennheisers overpriced cable, pick this up and you won't be disappointed. A steal at this price! 5 stars all around! Peace!

Worked ok for a few months until one side failed recently and stopped producing sound. No warranty or replacement was offered by the seller when I reached out.

I'm not a huge fan of how short the original Sennheiser HD25 cable is, so I bought this thinking this would be a good swap. I was so wrong. First, they are heavy, so you will definitely start to feel your neck sore by wearing them for 15-20 mins. But trying to put that aside a month into having it installed, the audio started to go out. I thought it was only the cable itself, and I didn't mind it at first, but after a few more months, it was starting to be obnoxious to the point that I switched back to the original cable. Once I installed the original cable, the audio was still out; I had to keep adjusting the cable connection that goes directly to the ear because now the entrance is permanently damaged.So yeah, I would recommend it if you want to ruin a perfect pair of Senheisser HD25 fast just because you want a longer cable 👎🏻
