Headphone cable quality between MDR-1000X and WH-1000XM3

jdoherty76 — Thu, 21 Feb 2019 13:17:01 GMT

Can anyone please tell me if Sony changed the quality of the headphone cable supplied with the WH-1000XM3 in comparision to the MDR-1000X. The MDR-1000X cable looks much thicker and slightly longer than that of the WH-1000XM3? (well at least from a pair I purchased) I was going to sell my MDR's and was wondering whether to keep the thicker or thinner cable? or is there no difference in sound quality?

Thanks in advance JD

Hi jdoherty76

I think the difference between the two cables is only on the outside. The audio quality that can be carried by both cables should be identical.

Hi jdoherty76,

I don't think there will be a difference in the audio quality between both cables.
