Drop's "service" & response time
I've purchased 2 sets of headphones from Drop and 2 DACs. I want to love Drop, but all in all, your response time is bad. It's like, "do I save $$ but get bad and unresponsive service" or "pay higher prices elsewhere and get good service"? I purchased the much-ballyhooed HD6XX and have yet to succeed in purchasing the warranty. Yes, you replied to my emails but when it came to the point to purchase, crickets from you. Hopeful that this was unusual, I recently purchased the Drop Hifiman HE4XX. Unfortunately, they arrived scratched, with a crimped cable and am still waiting for your response. You began but did not complete the process for exchanging. I did purchase the warranty for the HE4XX but at the end of the day, it may not make any difference.
If I ever need the warranty, how will that work out? Are you understaffed? I do not like to whine / complain but you guys need to get your act together. (And please, don't blame things on COVID-19). Oy.

I mean, with everyone working from home, reduced hours, reduced occupancy in warehouses/offices, etc, COVID-19 is going to affect things for a long time, whether you feel that’s valid (or the pandemic is real) or not.
With that said, due to the extended turn around time with customer support right now, perhaps some extensions and flexibility in Drop’s policies might be appropriate.

There is a large number of customer service tickets at the moment.
Maybe @jennychin can shed some light on the situation

It's really a nice little system. I don't need anything more on the Solid State side of my system. I have a couple of Schiit pieces. Currently working on old school side panels made of beautiful...

Have a pair of HIFI Man 4XX?
Drop everything you're doing and go to your streaming account (I prefer Spotify and Tidal) and pull up (search for) Ulrich Schnauss & Jonas Munk then find track 7 (Chasing Rainbows). Strap in and plug in your amp, and hit play. You can thank me later! No streaming account? Try this YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_mE0TE9a-Y&t=1715s

Beautiful Speakers
Great pair of desktop speakers! Pairing with a DAC will really bring out the best in them (not required but if you have one, try it out!). Great value deal here from Drop.

Recommends for 6XX replacement cable(s)?
The wires on the left channel plug, just before the socket are acting up and I need to replace the cable for my Sennheiser 6XX headphones. Looking at Amazon, I see actual Sennheiser cables but one of them does not have the removable 1/4 plug (I use a DAC with 1/8" jack), and I would rather not add even more connection unknowns by using an adapter down to 1/4", and the other Sennheiser cable is far too long for my usage (looking for around 2 meters or just a touch longer. The 6XX have been around for a while and I'm sure I'm not the first to need a replacement cable. I'm actually surprised that Drop doesn't offer them perpetually like they do with the ear pads, which ironically my stock pads are holding up just fine. I'm not looking for $100+ cables here, just a solid replacement for what the 6XX came with. Thanks!
