Hi Don,

I just got a new pair of these Pro 35's and find them a good value for the
money.  And the cord isn't particularly a strong point but it didn't stop
my first pair of headphones like these from lasting almost 3 years!  So,
with the rough treatment I gave these headphones I feel I got my money's
worth.

Will, K4SAY
