I’m not real hard on my headphones.......don’t use them that much. I had a pair of high-quality Pioneer headphones before that broke the same way as my Sony MDR-7506 just did. I don’t think I even had 30 hours on the Sony.

I heard a sputter and one side cut out…..on both sets of headphones. This Sony set I only used with my PA3x, and since I hardly play the PA3x, the phones hardly get any use.

Is this the common way headphones break?

What do I buy now that won’t break so easy and still give me an unbiased, dry sound (no coloring)?

Over the years, I’ve been looking at the.....
Audio Technica ATH-M70
the Sennheisers

Any opinions on Ultrasone and Grado?

How does one buy headphones?

Thanks,
