Ridiculous. The head band screws started to come loose, and no, you can't disassemble the unit to tighten them yourself. They made damn sure that when those tiny head band screws eventually come loose from repeated leveraging/force that you would be perfectly screwed. No pun intended.
They sound great, but this is a glaring design oversight that warrants a good trash talking every chance I get. I will be replacing them with what will likely be the Sony mdr-z7's.
I started with beyerdynamic DT770's and thought they were good. They ended up breaking. Bass response stopped working in left driver and they had rattle. I figured I just didn't spend enough although they were about $200 or so. I decided to go higher end with the X2's, but apparently $300 buys you garbage, and luckily I just made it within the warranty and I was told I'd be getting a refund.
I hope that spending about $600.00 on the damn Sony's will finally cure my quality complaints. Is that what a guy has to spend to get a pair of headphones that won't break in LESS THAN A YEAR? Damn it I swear. Maybe I should just drop $1,500.00 on some real high end crap just so I can play BF4 for longer than a year without the damn things BREAKING!
