I hate that shit. With my crappy iron it takes forever to put the solder in place and make sure the wires don’t touch each other. I keep putting off repairing the cables on two sets of headphones just because I don’t wanna do the soldering, and that’s while I need one of them for decent sound and no lag with the DAW. Worse even, I will probably soon need to make another adapter from a 4-pin plug to two jacks, and that’s quite a little cramped nest.

The initial investment of a high quality iron goes a long way. And is worth it.
