Just chiming in to report my bad experience with the HPM-70
The cable of mine cracked open right where it lefts the "fast port" almost 2 weeks after purchase (SE didn't honor the warranty)
It's still usable, with some crackling here and there, but certainly a sub par product/experience with this particular one.

No problems at all with my HPM 70 and I've had it just over a year now.

With the 1st mini adaptor I had it kept on coming out every half a minute so annoying.The second one works fine but strips the gold plate where it comes into contact with the jack,not good if you have costly earphones.

"what do you expect? to lose quality over time? of course it's still great" - I'm not sure if this message was meant for me
, but after all I don't expect any loss of the quality
. I would like to say that rough use of the headset makes it not that reliable. The wires could break or the fastport connector of the headset is getting loose so it can be very very easily pulled out of the phone's connector. But it's not like that in my case (and anyone who uses the headset with attentiveness.

but if your wires break then it won't sound at all. if the wires are intact, the sound quality is the same. that is what i wanted to say.

@strizlow, arien
Just reporting my experience, glad to know that mine is not prevalent. I might now look into a HPM-75.
What are the differences if any between the HPM-70 and the 75?
Is there a 3.5 mm adapter that has in-line volume/call controls that will work with a K790?
Thanks in advance

I think the headsets with more controls on them work only with Walkman phones (I'm not sure though), but the HPM70 does work OK.
