As straight as you'd expect really? It's made of the same material as 90% of headphone cords. No issues from my end.

Ben,

Does the cord stay straight? I am also thinking of getting these after seeing them on Engadget, but if I am going to shell out $150+ then they may as well be perfect.

Thanks,

John

Martin,

I have only been using them for a couple of weeks, but they seem pretty robust. Good molded connectors everywhere, including the join between the split ear cords and the main cord. They also come with a small hard carry case. It's a bit fiddly to coil up the cords to fit in the case, but it does offer good protection. It also doubles as a good way to carry the extra compressible earbuds if you want to swap between those and the silicone ones depending on the environment.

Ben.

Any comments on durability and construction for these as I'm also looking at potentially getting them to replace my current VModa Vibe model.

Thanks - Martin
