" ... Decent construction, perfect length. ... "
" ... It's the right length and connects easily and properly. ... "
" ... This cable is also neither too long nor short, which is good for use on a desktop computer. ... "
" ... Great cord, I bought the short one, but upgrading to the longer cord. ... "
" ... I chose this model because the short length was "right" for the application and because unlike the cable that came with the headphones, it terminates in the smaller and now more common 1/8" plug instead of a 1/4" plug (so no adapter needed for common use). ... "
