I'm hoping one of you has some good advice on getting them fixed.
I have a pair of the Sony DJ Headphones, MDR-V700. (I know some people dislike them with a passion and think they're a waste of money, but please leave that out of your response. Besides, with a friend working at BB they were only $70 <_<)
The exact problem: The base of the gold connector plug (I'm not an audiophile; please forgive any incorrect terms) is cracked all the way around. It doesn't pull off, yet I'm not exactly tempted to try. The sound is at it's former quality if I plug it in 3/4 of the way, but if I plug it all the way in I need to use a thumb and put pressure on it to get it to work. But then it gets caught on it's way back and I have to twist it around :/
The only option I can find is to send it back to Sony with $74 for a replacement. Forgive my language but I think that's complete and utter bull**** considering it's only the plug. Do I have any other option? Are there any store chains that would be able to replace the end?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
