I’ve never heard of buying full sets on etsy but I know amazon often has clones for pretty cheap too.

no what I got was 2.5mm to 3.5mm. In the pic the adapter is still on. Here is it removed https://i.imgur.com/GhiN8Nc.jpg

It’s not an issue I’m just wondering if other people got it like this

It was always 2.5mm from headphone into a 6.3mm and the cable comes with a really long thick 6.3mm to 3.5mm adapter. I guess they silently updated it for the consumer market.

theres nothing on the product page that claims a 3.5mm cable version exists either but apparently someone who bought directly from Sennheiser received one with 3.5mm as well?

CORRECTION: 6.3mm not 4.4mm but nevertheless this is strange. This is my second pair of HD 560s and the cable is also noticeably nicer than the previous.

edit: The first pair I bought a month ago from Best Buy and it came with the really shitty cable and adapter. I can't A/B test between the two since I gifted it to a friend but I don't think there is a difference in sound.
