The failure that lead me to a new CM-500 was a broken microphone attachment to the headphone. If I was CW/digital only, no microphone might be an improvement. :-)

BTW, I got the replacement from B&H sales who listed it as a dynamic microphone. It isn't dynamic. It is electret and requires a "bias" voltage either from the radio or using the supplied battery holder.

Like you, I've passed along the recommendation many times, and like you, I've had to buy several replacements. I've never had a problem with the ear pads. My failures are all broken cables, primarily because I've always been a real klutz.
