weishan ATH-M50x Cable Coiled Aux Cord Replacement for Audio Technica
Quick take
This coiled replacement/extension aux cable is designed for wired Audio-Technica ATH-M40x/M50x/M60x/M70x-style headsets. It gives you roughly 4 feet of length, stretched up to about 14 feet, and includes a 6.35mm (1/4") adapter for gear with larger headphone jacks. The key caveat is compatibility, it is not meant for the ATH-M50xBT or other wireless Bluetooth models.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Coiled, flexible spring design helps manage extra slack for desk, studio, or DJ setups.
- Connector set is practical: 2.5mm (3-pole) to 3.5mm (1/8") (3-pole), plus a 6.35mm (1/4") adapter.
- Threaded connection and gold-plated tips aim for a more secure fit than simple friction plugs.
- Designed for common pro and everyday uses (monitoring, tracking, FOH, post production, personal listening).
Cons
- Compatibility is strict, it is for wired Audio-Technica models and not for BT/wireless versions.
- Coiled cables can be less ideal if you need a perfectly straight, untangled run.
What buyers think
Buyer-review evidence is limited but consistent around a few practical themes. Shoppers who matched the cable to the correct headset report it functions as expected, restores audio performance comparable to the original cable, and feels like a reliable backup option. There is also feedback that the included threaded-style connection matters for stability, and that including the 1/4" adapter is convenient. Some concerns appear to be less about the cable itself and more about needing the right cable version for the right headset model.
Who this cable is best for
Choose this weishan coiled aux cable if you have a wired Audio-Technica ATH-M40x, ATH-M50x, ATH-M60x, or ATH-M70x (or compatible wired variant using the specified 2.5mm 3-pole headphone input) and you want either a replacement cable or a bit more reach for your setup. It is also a good fit if you regularly plug into different kinds of devices, like 3.5mm outputs on phones/laptops and 6.35mm outputs on amplifiers, mixers, or DJ/FOH gear.

Pros and cons in real-world use
Why the coiled design can help
Coiled cables tend to be easier to manage in small spaces because they naturally pull back toward the headset end. That can be useful for studio work, desk monitoring, or situations where you want the extra cable length available, without a long loose run constantly getting stepped on or snagged.
Where buyers should be careful
The biggest buying risk is connector compatibility. This cable is intended for wired Audio-Technica headsets in the ATH-M series listed above, and it explicitly is not for the wireless BT models. If you are not sure which input your headphones use, verify the headphone jack size and whether your headset is wired or Bluetooth.
Is it worth it?
If you need a coiled replacement cable for a compatible wired Audio-Technica ATH-M40x/M50x/M60x/M70x setup, this is a straightforward option because it covers both common plug sizes (3.5mm and 6.35mm with the adapter) and it is built for everyday audio gear use. The value depends mostly on whether you genuinely benefit from a coiled cable and whether you are comfortable confirming the headset version before ordering.
Alternatives to consider
- Straight extension cables: If you need a long, fully straight run for a fixed workstation or stage position, a straight extension may be easier to route than a spring coil.
- Different connector kits: If your device uses only 3.5mm or only 6.35mm, you may prefer a simpler cable without an adapter to reduce connection points.
- Dedicated replacement OEM-style cable: If your goal is a perfect match with no extra length needs, a replacement cable intended specifically for your exact model can be the cleaner approach.
