Looks solid, feels a bit cheap
I was looking for an extension cord for my headphones, to use in the studio, and came across with this option - the price seemed fair and in my experience cordial cables have been generally good.
When it arrived it looked very solid, it seemed to have good finishes, and I almost felt like I had found a bargain. However, it wasn't. The worst thing about this cable is the awkward female connection - it's unstable and problematic. I had problems connecting 2 out of 3 jack ends into it... One didn't fit, and the other kept disconnecting, hanging a bit loose - they always worked perfectly fine in anywhere else I tried them, so I'm positive that the problem lies in the female connector of this product. Fortunately, it finally worked fine with an old adapter I had lying around, or else I would have returned it. There is also a noticeable difference in sound quality and noise level when this cable is introduced, despite having chosen the shortest option available to avoid capacitance issues - while this one is 3m long, the other options available are 5m, 7,5m and 10m long.
To conclude, I will not buy these again. I'm keeping mine because it eventually managed to do its job, but I do recommend looking for better options out there before resorting to this one.

Sort of works
I have bought a number of those extensions in different lengths and even though they are of high quality and have persevered in high usage, they all have a problem in the female TRS input from the first day of use. The plug is too deep and all of my headphones need to stay 3mm out of the plug to work properly.
