weishan K702 Cable Coiled Aux Cord Replacement for AKG Q701, K712, K240, K240S, K240 MK II, K141, K171, K181, K271, K271S, K271 MK II, K241, K175, K275 Headphone Audio Cable Wire with 6.35mm Adapter

Nice rubbery feel. Seams like a quality product. I just received it. The plugs are solid with no connection issues. A whole lot cheaper than the oem Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro X version for my cans. Just the right length for use at my pc. The sound is as good as my oem straight cable. Give it a try.

Now THIS is a cable. My AKG K245's came with a straight cable that costs THIRTY DOLLARS to replace, and you will have to replace it if you are anywhere that it might get snagged. After I was on my second replacement and it was going, I was lucky enough to find this after some research. Half the price and double the quality. The connection where the wires are soldered has an unscrewable outer shell just like an instrument cable would, so if the thing _does_ break, you can just fix it, provided you have the tools. But the coil makes that a lot less likely. This cable is nice and durable and deserves your respect. The only problem is the little rubber piece that is supposed to sit in the screwable metal connector piece keeps falling out, so a tiny bit of the wires are exposed where they go into the enclosed connection area. It's not a big deal, but it makes me a little nervous. If you have AKG headphones, you should have this cable. They're wrong to not give it to you with some of the "lower end" models, but if you come upon this page and you don't have one, it's a sound investment.

The Coiled Cable that came with my AKG K371 was just too stiff. The Weishan K702 Cable is more flexible and works well.

Excelente!

Perfect replacement for my akg headphones.

I've been using this with my AKG K240 Studio headphones for about two months now and overall I am pleased with it. The tip and cable seem of good quality and the metal connectors are solid. Audio quality is excellent. My only complaint is that the rubber wrap at the headphone end (pictured) has separated from the metal casing about half a dozen times over the last 2 months leaving the wires underneath exposed. Fixing this is a matter of unscrewing the metal connector, sliding the rubber wrap back up the wire and squeezing it back inside the metal piece (the hard part), then sliding both together into position until you can screw the connector back on. I suspect it happens as a result of either pulling (even gently) on the wire at an angle (it is a short, tightly coiled wire so it gets pressure before the wire even starts to uncoil) or possibly just from a resting position as shown in the 2nd photo. It's rather annoying but not too difficult to fix; however, I'm afraid one day it will lead to cable failure because of that wire exposure and having to wiggle that area to fix it.

I use my headphones with an electric guitar multi fx pedal. The coils are under constant tension having to stretch the 6 feet from the floor to my ears so there's constantly pressure on my head and neck and eventually the input jack stopped working from the strain.

As expected.
