Length of cord???? I just recieved these and I noticed that where the cord splits to go to each earphone, the left one is nearly 12 inches shorter than the right.

It's a way certain headphones are made so that you can put the part of the chord that connects them over the back of your head. I personally don't like these kind but they are good for people wishing to jog with them. They're called asymmetrical headphones and surprisingly many people like them.

The line in does not power the headphones, they needed to be charged separately. When they charge is gone they don't work until charged, the charge is done via USB, but they won't charge and work at the same time. BTW, I would also want to let you know that I had serious problems with one ear being much louder than the other. Make sure you test that immediately when they arrive if you choose to purchase them.

33-3/4 inches from the jack end to the point where the wire splits to the earbuds. From the split to earbuds is about 17 inches.

Hi Hal,I'm probably the wrong person to try and address your question as I have NOT used mine since I got them; apparently my ears are too small for them to be used. I have tried several times but one then the other pop out (literally pop out). Without having tried the CX685 my best guess is that perhaps they have addressed the comfort/fit of their ear buds to accommodate a wider range of ear sizes? I can't be the only one out here who simply can't wear the "standard" sizes! Hopefully there are a few reviews to detail if anything new or additional has been packaged with the CX685 version.

The speakers can be separated by 64 inches maximum. Let me describe the connection. A standard audio 3.5 mm plug inserts into your device (iphone, Walkman, computer, etc..) A 24 inch cable leads to a USB 2.0 connector. Two lines, each about 32 inches long, exit from the USB to the speakers, where they are connected with a mini USB (what you usually find on a digital camera for photo downloads). So if you picture a "T" with the audio plug at the bottom, 24 inches up the T, from there one line leads 32 inches to the left speaker and one line 32 inches to the right speaker. So you can say the cord from the plug splits to the two speakers, but 24 inches from the plug. There is a volume control about half way up the 24 inch cable. The speakers are charged with the USB connector. So if you want to charge while listening, the placing of the speakers will now be controlled by where that is plugged in. Hope this answers your questions.

same question. 3 foot cord for headphones sounds ridiculous so i'm thinking its really 3 meters like in the reviews.since no one complained about the length of the cord that i can see, i'm gonna go for it.

Hey Juliana, I measured them from ears till plug it's 130 cm. They are pretty long but I can 't say if that longer then normal.

The cord on these headphones are pretty long. It measures about 3 feet if not a little longer. My boys have no issue with the length of the cord. I have actually had to roll up some of the cord to shorten it a little. In any case, very happy with the headphones and the length of the cord. Hope this helps.

I got a chance to talk to monster guys. He told that I can replace the earphones but he is not sure that if I will receive the earphones with the right angle connector. BTW... i am planning to return these as it doesnt feel comfortable at all. Sound wise its excellent but i have considerable pain in my ears after wearing them for 1 hour. I tried all the eartips, but nothing seems to be comfortable. Any suggestions???

I agree with Nathan, the cord itself is about 4 feet, at the split to the ear buds is another foot.Bill Edgar

not sure but I can tell you that the style of connector (cord to headset) is messed up. When I moved the cord it would make crackling noises in the headset over the audio. these headphones suck imo

I wish I could help you on that. I had ordered the item, tried it on very briefly and because it wouldn't stay in place I returned it. It fell off my ears every time. I didn't pay attention to the length of the cord. Had I kept it I would have. Sorry.

Its 12 inches from the unit to the junction where the left/right earphone cables split. From the junction to the right earphone is 19 inches. From the junction to the left earphone is 5 inches. I find that the unit has to be clipped to the upper part of a shirt somewhere or in a shirt pocket. Hope this helps.

in the booklet that came with my headphones it says the cord length is 1.2 meters which is just under four feet. the cord is not detachable but i like the fact that it just has one cord and not two like most other headphones. the control unit is around six inches from the headset. these headphones really sound great to me as far as a set that costs under $100. i've had them for over a year and no problems so far. the only issue is have is that the control unit only works on iphones or itouch, but the microphone will work on android and any other type of cell phone!

29" from the plug to the "Y" --- in my opinion, they are a bit short, but I only use mine while running with my ipod, so the cord doesn't need to be long.

From tip of the ear piece to tip of the jack (end to end) it's 4'. From the jack to the left/right split it's about 2.5'. The mic is about 6" from the base of the left headphone...it's long enough to be in my jacket pocket then go under my shirt up into my ears with plenty of slack.
