i'll take the microphonic everyday rather than the connection issue, which is still best of the worst. why can't sennheiser make a decent cable????

Luckily I've never had connection issues with the IE600 but the cable has microphonics and the ear hooks took a lot of bending to get them in a position I don't mind (still not great).

Tons of complaints on the HeadFi thread about the stock eartips and cable so it looked like they might fix things with the IE200, so it's unfortunate to hear they still couldn't get it right.

My IE80 from 7 years ago, and every Sennheiser IEM I've owned since, had shit eartips, a mediocre cable, and proprietary connectors.

It's good they might be trying, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.

the cable on the ie200 is paper thin.
