Drop + THX Panda Wireless Headphone

Well my Pandas failed physically last night -- went to put them on my head and the extendable arm for the left ear gave out and a screw fell out from inside. Looks like the screw may have been defective to begin with, as only the head of the screw fell out -- the stem/threaded part is broken off completely and is nowhere to be found. Looking inside the arm of the headphones, it looks like the screw that fell out is one of two that keep the headphone attached to the extendable arm.
Pretty disappointing to say the least. I did also open a case with support, but wanted to post here as well.

ninelevenoThis looks very concerning.. Taiwan made.. what if all our screws are low quality and it is going to happen for all Pandas around the world !? It does not even look like stainless steel! DROP, wtf I ask??

ninelevenoWell that is a shame.
No excuse for that cases like yours should be there first priority.
Could you fix them or are you planing on sending them back?

J.A.SI'd definitely prefer to send them back for a replacement.
Based on what I see, I don't think it would be the hardest thing to fix. The electronics are all still connected and working and it doesn't look like there are any broken plastic pieces anywhere. The challenge would be figuring out how to -- I believe the main band of the headphones would need to be taken apart first to allow the extendable arm to be completely disassembled, then it would probably just be a replacement screw that would be needed to reattach everything.

WillFor sure -- I contacted support from my order page early Monday morning (just before this post), I'm just anxiously awaiting a response. I'm guessing they're a bit backed up.
I'm definitely not one to mess with things while they're still under warranty.

ninelevenoYea, CS is slammed right now, a bunch of unrelated shipments (other products) arrived and shipped at the same time also after months of waiting, so last week was more or less 5x the number of orders we're usually shipping, so that's 1000 extra "What does this tracking status mean?" tickets right there, etc. Thanks for your patience.

ninelevenoUpdate -- support got back to me. Response time was about 2.5 days.
They're going to replace my unit, but they said they "have not yet received [their] customer-service allocation of replacement units."
So it looks like it'll be a bit longer before this is resolved for me (and anyone else having issues).

Ringing in PC38X's
I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?
Greetings, Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...

Big changes coming to my tiny little music room, I've recently purchased a new stack. Currently figuring out where to locate it all and ordering up the necessary cables, it won't be too long before I'm up and running. I am now the proud owner of a brand new stack. It's a European brand called Earmen. Amp, DAC, Streamer & Linear Power Supply. It won't be long!

Recommendation for my next headphone set? I have Koss 95x
Hey all, What would you recommend I get next and why? I have Koss ESP-95x electrostatic massdrop headphones. These are my first and only audiophile set. I love them. I think my only real requirements is $500 or less for the headphones and that they have a little more low end. I don’t need thump but these are really light on lows…but the experience is still awesome. Also any recommendations on an amp? I only have my electrostatic thingy. I am using the Topping D50 DAC. thx!!
