Cheers for that, didn't realise Senn had released a mic version. Looks a bit chunky though! Wonder if it's really that big.
No problem!! Not sure how big the actual control module is but there is some info on the cable here.

If looks like the cable does work with the older ie8 model!! I think there is no change to the new ones apart from the cable. I've wanted this functionality since I bought them so I will probably order the cable in the next few weeks!
