Until my cat finds them.

Any serious set of wired headphones better have replaceable wires because apparently they are delicious

Any cable, I tell you ... any cable. Ruined multiple USB cables, and almost went through two Laptop charger cable.

Replaceable cables have always been a high priority for me. I've been using SHURE SE215 for almost 2 decades at this point.

Ehh I'm not considering it a dealbreaker. Easy to splice and fix 3.5mm. Donors found at thrift stores or in your drawer (or remaining length of undamaged wire).
