Sennheiser earphones broke

[Teddybeer]

Hey everyone
The left side of my earphones just broke
the sound is alot softer then the right side
This is the third time it happend to my earphones
1st sennheiser 2nd creative and this is a better quality sennheiser again
the funny thing is they all broke after 3-4weeks
this tells me im doing something wrong
i dont see how i can have them too loud cuz it doesnt sound loud 2 me
im playing it all on a philips 8GB MP3
have i blown one side
or is it somehting diffrent
the sound is still clear
Its very weird becouse when i hold it to my ear sideways it seems louder its one of the in-ear phones
it kinda looks like the speaker moved inside the bud


-i have switched sides but still same effect
-i cleaned them
-i tried connecting to diffrent devices
-i have searched the internet for solutions

still dont know what to do
can anyone help me or has experience with this issue
any advice is welcome


EDIT: important note: when i have them both out of my ear and hold them seperate they both sound just as loud so i think the speaker still works but moved inside the bud

You write
like Cin.
It's annoying.

Lol at first sight, I thought you wrote a poem.

OT: Earphones "break" all the time. sometimes they just start getting screwed up for some reason - I think it has something to do with being constantly plugged in or something ...idk. My suggestion: get a new pair.

that wasnt needed
at all

i wouldve stopped using the same kind after
the second one broke.
maybe you hit something?
like maybe its in your pocket and you hit the wall or something

meh

are you bending the damn cord anywhere. that shit used to happen to me all the time when i bent the cord at its connection to the jack. i bet you could easily take all three pair snip the jack off, and go to radio shack and buy a new jack, and reqire it. it might look like turds, but i bet theyll work.

Happened to me to twice with Sennheizer. The ''bassy'' sound dissapeared completely Making it sound worse than a mobile phone with bad sound.
I just got a new pair.

[evilpeta]

don't
use
them
when
your
ears
are
wet.
lol

seriously though, i have bought probably 5 of those cheap Genius earphones that break every month. some more expensive earphones like the ones that came in my ipod haven't broke in a couple years.

why do they have to be so terrible
why is the cord so thin
its not cool
and yes
i write
like cin
cuz im dutch
and he is too
well i'm quite careefull except i role the cord around my mp3 when putting it in my pocket

if you didn't notice it was to avoid punctuation.

How can you fit punctuation in every one of those lines?

blabla

If you wrap them around, take the jack out of the MP3. If you keep it in it's bad for the wire, as CeLL said, it'll break inside.

my job is done here, just pay it forward.

Buy some cheap shits, they sometimes work better than the expensive ones. Even if they wont they'll keep up for 3-4 weeks atleast too and are alot cheaper xD

[panterr]

He's right,
i'm Dutch too
so I
also write
like
this.

Anyways,
-don't "spin" them around your mp3 when putting them in your bag.
-don't use them in rain
-alot of earphone plug's get "lame" when you use them alot. Only earphones/device this doesn't happen (just my own experiences) is the iPod.

Not all Dutch people are premature sentence enders!
