My Sennheisers unplug at the headphone end - do yours?

Thanks - nothing like posting that you can't find something to aid
you in finding it immediately afterwards.
I found a Grado extension at as couple of places, including
https://www.beststuff.co.uk/.
More expensive than the cheapest I found but perhaps it is decent
quality.

I don't think the cables unplug - I have a red (for right) and black
(for left) tag which fit into the body of the phones which could
conceivably come out with a sharp tug.
However without a very strong assurance that this was part of the
design I will not be attempting it ;-)


Heh. I did find this:

But it seems to be more expensive than the price you paid for the
headphones...


Thanks for the link anyway.
If I hadn't found an adapter cable I might have considered this.
If the solution doesn't work i might still consider this.
The picture does show the small connectors very nicely - a design
feature which could benefit other headphones, I think.
I WILL NOT take the connectors out.....I WILL NOT take the connectors
out......


Why not just solder on one of these?
