Sennheisers have been my good headphones of choice for a decade.
I never questioned that the thing was big. they came with a big thing to small thing adapter. so I always used the big thing to small thing adapter.
but my new Senns did not come with a new adapter, even though the box said they should, because they must be a refurb or something that didn't include refurbing the adapter back into the box.
and my old adapters are now leaking a lovely shade of teal grease from betwixt the black thing and the gold thing.
so I pressed the new adapter button on Amazon. and the new adapter came. and then it wasn't deep enough for the big thing.
and while I was trying to wiggle the big thing into the hole that wasn't deep enough for the big thing, the big thing came off.
and there's a SMALL THING.
I CAN JUST USE THE SMALL THING.
WHY IS THERE USUALLY A BIG THING TO SMALL THING ADAPTER INCLUDED IF THE BIG THING ITSELF TWISTS OFF TO REVEAL A SMALL THING
OR AT LEAST WHY IS THE BIG THING NOT ALSO SEPARATED BY DEFAULT, I GUESS THERE ARE THINGS AUDIO PEOPLE LIKE THAT THE BIG THING WOULD GO IN AND THEN THE THING WOULD HAVE A BIG THING OUT TOO?
A fair amount of audiophile stuff uses a 1/4 inch jack (the big one) instead of the more common 3.5 mm jack (the small one)
