Headphones breaking...


2pac

Recommended Posts

For some reason all of my headphones do this. I use them for a month or 2 and then 1 side stop working. (its really annoying to hear music only from 1 ear) It takes about 5 mins to get the cord just right so they work, and even then i cant move cause it'll mess it up.

 

 

 

Any ideas why this mite be happening?

Do you fiddle with the cord in your fingers? Especially around the area where the two cords from each each intersect and become one cord? An extremely large number of headphone breakages are due to cord damage, not damage to the actual headphones themselves. Other vulnerable areas are the bits where the cord meets the headphones themselves, and the bit where the cord meets the plug that goes into the headphone jack on tyour mp3 player/pc/whatever. These can be damaged easily if the headphones are yanked or pulled.

 

 

 

If you're serious about your music and your headphones, get some with a detachable cord. That way you can simply replace the cord if there's a problem with it. A new cord is less than $10 whereas depending on how serious you are, new headphones can be upwards of $100, $200, and higher.

 

 

 

I personally use Sennheiser HD 212 PROs.
