The mophie case has a long narrow hole for the headphones. They
supply a short extender. I think it's hokey.

I have Seinhowser headphone with mic that fit, but I want to run to
the gym and plug them in and the plugs with the mic won't plug in at
the gym.

I'm looking for headphones that will work and plug into the gym tv.
Without having to use the Mophie Extender.

I'm a professional musician and sound is very important to me.


I ran into this problem for an iSkin case I bought for my iPod. In this
case the hole provided was circular but with a diameter too small for my
Etymotic 6s. So I took a drill bit that was a little bigger than the
hole, I turned the bit by hand so to shave through a bigger diameter. I
turned the bit by hand because I was afraid I'd crack the plastic if I
turned it with the motor. It worked great, didn't take long, and it
looks good too. I suppose this could be done through a slot, but you
might have a hard time keeping the bit centered.

That's a very creative answer. It would still need a straight and not an angled plug.
