So, Got these new at the start of feburary, and already one headphone is starting to mess up, If you fiddle with the wire connecting to the first headphone, it crackles in and out but not stable.
What should I do, Dont have original receipts as it was purchased overseas..

Anyone else had the same problems? Fixable myself?

I had the same problem with mine about 2 years ago. first the long adapter started to fuck, i changed that shit out, then the headphones also started to fuck. so I said fuck them and bought sony. haha I had the same exact problem as you do. There is not much you can do, cause I think the warranty is like 30 days...

haha, Well at the moment, i opened them up and it seemed the problem is where the wire meets the first speaker, so I cut the wire and tried splicing them, and appprantely im working with wires can not be spliced without solder so FML!! Gotta message Scotty Boy, hopefully he has a soldering gun.. ha. And I cut my Skull candy Cable as well, trying to fix them so at the moment i have no head phones.
