Those look momentums l. I have a pair from years ago, $70 on sale. If you have to ask if you got a good deal then you're smoking crack. The extra cable can be ordered from Sennheiser. It's a specific custom cable , very narrow. Be gentle with the pads. I had to get a new pair after 2 years. But I wore them daily for 2 years commuting in the train, thrown in my desk, in my bag, dropped on concrete over a dozen times. They're solid. Low resistance too so they work well with phones, high quality but music preferred. But plug them into even a cheap USB amp and man they go to another level. I also own the hd600 for like 20 yrs. My best friend is a musician and loves their mics. Been a Senn fan for over 23 yrs

Dude I'm rocking a small OB Creek II amp I bought in 1999, made in America. Paid like $160 on sale back then, Still rocking. Buying a DAC soon. Still researching. I'm no expert on modern headphone amps. Some are DAC /amp combos but it's hard to tell of the longevity of these items, brands. I don't mind 40% more of I know it will last with no real headaches.
