BS. Never seen a cable like that. That said, I have two minor issues with it, that might be specific to my hand or grip:1. Beautiful Pattern! It’s overwhelming, but at ‘Your Own Pace’ if you catch my drift. I am someone who does not enjoy the "in-ear" style earbuds. Really love these. Doesnt have noisy feedback when you need to adjust it either. but is especially uncomfortable when you drop them down to let around your neck for a break. Seul vrai reproche, autant pour écouter de la musique ou autre, il est bien et coupe un peu les sons extérieurs, autant pour avoir une conversation téléphonique, ces écouteurs ne "supportent" pas les bruits ambiant et linterlocuteur ne comprend rien.
