Shure EAC64CL 64-Inch Detachable Earphone Cable for SE215, SE315, SE425 and SE535 Earphones (Clear)

So your Shure IEM cable has finally broken and you're wondering whether or not you should cheap out and buy a 3rd party cable - 1 word: DON'T! My journey with Shure started with a pair of SE315's 4 years ago. I'm now onto the SE535's (which are absolutely PHENOMENAL by the way) I actually bought the pair second hand for £200, I didn't ask the seller how long he'd owned them for (hindsight is a brilliant thing) I wish I had though just so I could get an accurate representation of how good, no great, these cables are! He could've owned them 1/2/3/4+ years before I bought them and all I can say is, I bought them second hand in very early 2018 and have only had to replace the cable once, just over a month ago (March 2020), and it's worth noting despite my shame to admit, I don't look after these very well. They've been thrown around, put in my pockets, sat on, slept on, left around, and the cable just will not break! It even had a little tear in the mould able wire by the left ear for the best part of a year and they just wouldn't stop working, saying that I distinctly remember a point where they actually had stopped working on the wide with the tear for a few days, then one day I just tried them again and poof, they worked! It was like witchcraft! These cables are tough, like really REALLY tough, they transmit audio clearly, and honestly just don't cheap out. I can't stress it enough, this will last you years. It's worth the money (it's not even a lot of money) do yourself and buy them Pro tip: If you do replace the cable, keep the old one for reselling purposes as it has the original serial number on, incase you decide to sell them later down the line.

arrived fairly quickly but this was a good replacement for my cables for my shure se315s.. the sound quality was starting to go after about 2 yearrs of constant daily use.. so rather than buying a brand new headphones, thought i would give this a try and it worked a treat!

They are good, but expect to have to replace them every 8-12 months, depending on how well you treat them - they're fairly rigid for earphone cables, so end up getting bent out of shape a bit. Braided cables are probably longer lasting, but would probably snap easier.

My original se425 cable lasted a good few years with the only problem being that the still wire by the ear piece snapped. The cable itself didn’t develop any fault and still works now. Before replacing with new shure cable, opted for an after market cable with food reviews, better construction and cheaper price however, straight away, there was an obvious negative difference in sound quality so ended up just going back to the original rather than potenitally wasting time with trial and error. As far as my experience goes, the price has been justified through sound quality. The shure replacement sounds a lot better than the after market cable I tried. Will see if it lasts or whether it lives up to some of the negative reviews due to poor build quality.

No issues ... Branded Shure ... Fixed the dreaded broken paper clip issue ... at least Shure the cable is replcable seperately... which for £300 a set I would expect better quality as this is the 3rd wire in 2 years ...

MMMMMM ..this is the third cable set Ive ordered over about 18 months...... looking around here...they dont last long at all........ not impressed. The design needs altering...but I guess they wont if we all have to buy new ones every 6 months. its usually the plug end.... and not the phones end. How hard can it be to make it more robust?????

Works just as well as the original, because it is the same, with one slight improvement; the point where the plug enters the phone has been narrowed to allow for aftermarket cases. Quality item, should last the usual 6 months, as with all Shure accessories. I work them hard I guess......

I'm fairly sure my headphones sound better than they were new, nearly 2 years ago now, with this new cable in. The left ear hook cable was hanging on by merely a thread and sound was crap out of that ear, so I figured £30 for a new cable is a good spend. Turns out I was right. Only issue was that the left ear was misbehaving for the first few minutes, but sounding great now. 5 stars from me :)
