I tried taking off the sheath on the original cables with a little knife, but it was such a pain to get it off that I just bought another cable after doing a bit (I nibbled with a little knife and peeled).
Having a good seal definitely helps a lot, and I found that I couldn't get a good seal with the included ear hooks - they pulled them straight out of my ears.
