🎧 FiiO LC-3.5BS 45CM Short Cable: High-Purity Copper-Plated Silver Standard MMCX 3.5mm Connector Headphones for Shure, JVC, FiiO FH5 - Shop Now! Review

I clip the BTR3 to my shirt collar and this shorter cable

Good, not so great Distribution: Good: - Clearly well built - I like the fit and the quality of the materials - I wanted to make the cable clearly light, comfortable and strong Not very Pros: The cable gets tangled easily. Mind you, not that terrible, but more than that, the "B" version of this cable - I can tell the difference between this 2.5mm C version and the 2.5mm B version (both symmetrical) don't really hear - I'm always concerned that since the braids are open (meaning they aren't…
