Customers have mixed opinions about the sound quality of the electronic cable. Some mention that the sound is perfect, and can be listened comfortably at less than half volume.

This results in a full-spectrum rumbling, and if the cord is moved wrong, the audio signal is lost.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
After a couple months of stuffing 7 feet of cord in my pocket, I finally decided to look for something more reasonable.
That's where this 1.2m (4 foot) cord comes in. I was torn between this one and a similar one that had inline volume/track controls, but I settled on this one for the sake of simplicity... seems like fancy features are always the first thing to fail on such products.
I wasn't sure what to make of this cord when I first got it. It's got a fantastic braided sheath, a metal spring for strain relief on the TRS end, and appears to have some excellent quality connectors on both ends. The 1/4" TRS adapter is screw-on, which I appreciate. The 3.5mm end connects solidly into all my devices without being ridiculously tight. And most importantly, the length is perfect.
My only concern was the thickness of the cable. It seemed kinda thin compared to the 10 foot cable I was using before, and since I tend to use headphones with my HTC 10 without an external amp, I worried that I might lose some loudness through a thinner wire.
Turns out my fears were unfounded. If anything, I seem to get more volume out of my phone now than I used to. I can listen comfortably at less than half volume, which gives me plenty of headroom.
For the price, this cord is a downright bargain. If you're in a similar situation as I was and you're hesitating, don't. Just pull the trigger and order this. Mine arrived just in time to listen to the new deluxe re-issue of Faith No More's "We Care A Lot" album, and it's been an amazing listening experience.
Audio sounds no different when playing through this when compared to the stock cable. Other reviews have noted a non working release button, so I was sure to check that it functioned before installing the cable. Mine works fine, but it does have a little more play than I'd like (not enough for me to worry about it breaking). I also wish the spring relief on the 1/8" end was a bit longer (like the one on Koss KPH30i headphones) because it still feels like I'm putting too much tension on the cable itself if the end flexes. The braid is nice. Not too stiff but still sturdy.
The problem is that in the end of the cable that connects to head phones there is an internal break in one of the conductors; it only works when holding the cable in a certain position. I believe the specific problem is that common wire (there are three, left, right, and common) has a break in the conductor.
The subtle irony here is that around the same time I purchased this cable, my son explained to me that he had purchased USB cables with the same type of braided jacket. These we more expensive than the cheaper looking cables he had previously been using for years. He also found that the nicer looking cable, with the braided jacket, were inferior with respect to durability compared to the cheaper cable - that is the the became intermittent or just plain stopped working.
By the way none of the cheaper cables ever failed in this manner, they only failed after years of wear and tear (or being chewed apart by a pet). Sooo..., unless you plan to hook these up and never move them, they are not worth the extra expense.
A day after I contacted the company, they sent me a replacement, which arrived the next day. So far, the new replacement cable has been working great.
