Hi,

Am looking for some decent wired headphones and found some from both the AKG and Pioneer range however they only come with either 1m or 3m cable. Is it possible to buy extension cables for these with 3.5mm male and female jackplugs in the UK?

Regards

Al

I'd recommend buying headphones that use detachable cables. Then you can get different lengths plus they give the headphones more lifespan as the cables are a weak point.

My main Sennheisers, have a detachable lead it is still going strong after twenty odd years.

I also have a pair of wireless Sennheisers but they are more for background listening to the TV and radio while pottering around the house and the fidelity is not as good. And a pair of wired neckband small format Sennheisers for running and listening while out and about, again the fidelity is less than that of my main pair but are good enough for PMP and podcast listening.

I have a set of wired headphones which I sometimes connect to a bluetooth receiver, when I want to move around.

I have a bluetooth headset as well but my wired set has independent volume controls for each ear which is sometimed useful as I hear better in one ear than the other, and this enables me to balance stero better.
