Vic Firth Headphones Blown?

[FrankTheSmith]

My headphones have to be really loud for the left side to work and when it does work it's really fuzzy. The right side works fine. I took it apart and the wiring looks perfectly fine. I've never pulled on the cord, bent the cords or anything like that. They're about 7 months old, no warranty (cause I like to live dangerously)

Based on that small bit of information would you say it's blown or it just need re-soldering?

Re-do your joints and report back. I have my money on a loose solder joint, but it may very well be the diaphragm.

Re-soldered everything and it still does the same thing. Shiiiiiiiiiiiit. I emailed Vic Firth and they said they'd send me a replacement FO FREE!

Pretty cool of vic. I have 2 pairs of those headphones. I honestly don't bother with those extended store warrantys or gold coverage etc... on stuff under $200.

In my opinion the vic firth headphones aren't so good. They kill my ears after a while due to the way they push my ears.

Plus they break easily. Me and a friend of mine both have broken ones now. And i believe we both have the left speaker broken too.
