Comments about Grado Mini Adapter Cable (1/4" Female to 1/8" Male):
I bought this adapter after reading other users of premium headphones praising its usefulness in extending the life of the headphone cable.
After repeatedly plugging, unplugging, hanging etc. the cable wears over time and this is the perfect hedge. There's also no degradation in audio quality.
I use this with my Sennheiser HD595 and I'm perfectly content.

Use daily with my Grado SR225s. Much better than standard adaptors that put extra stress one the mini jack. Grado makes some of the best headphones and accessories available. Would buy again.

I purchased this adapter so I could use my Grado RS2 headphones with my PC and my MP3 player. Prior to this purchase, I bought a generic adapter cable from a nationwide retailer. Only one of the headphones could be heard. When I purchased this mini adapter from B&H, I was able to enjoy the superior sound quality that I hear when I do not have the mini adapter attached to my headphones.

Solid well made quality construction. Save wear and pressure on your 1/8 audio jack with this over a standard cheap bundled adapter. A right-angled connector on this would be a nice option.

Comments about Grado Mini Adapter Cable (1/4" Female to 1/8" Male):
I own a Sennheiser HD555. Other owners out there would understand that these days, the default connector being a 1/4" plug is kind of a hassle. People who use their higher end headphones on their laptops, desktops, and portable audio players such as the Cowon S9 would much rather have the default plug be the 1/8" variety. Buying an adapter such as the Mini Adapter Cable from Grado was a first for me.
Using the included plug adapter that comes with the HD555 puts stress on the plug. The last thing anyone needs is a broken socket am I right? Using Grado's adapter is the ideal solution if you care about the audio equipment you're plugging your headphones into. The length of wire provides flex and places the stress further down the line.
If you use portable audio devices, this is seriously a must for users of higher end headphones.
