hey,
how do you guys deal w/the extra long cord? i just purchased the HJE70s, and the extra extension cord is quite long. i put elastic bands around it. but it bothers me a bit.
how do you guys deal w/it? and who has this set of headphones (which are amazing..thanks jacko) how do you guys store the headphones?
cheers

you can purchase shorter extension cords? would they lessen the quality of the music coming into the earphones ??

the shorter the cord, the less quality lost
besides, it takes a really really long cord, i'm talking about lyk 100 ft, and really good headphones to notice quality loss
just make sure you get a male/female cord

so where can you pick up one ?
its not that long, its just not as short as the factory apple headphone cords.
i dont think you can buy an extension cord that is shorter.
anyone else do the same ?

If you are talking about the attached cord 3.3' then the only way to shorten it without tying it up is to cut the jack off, cut some extra cord off and solder an aftermarket jack on.

yea i saw the smartwrap, but that adds bulk to the cord.
