Is it Normal for headphone-wires to feel...Rough?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
Just purchased some PX100s two days ago and I noticed something tonight. Running the upper part of the wire (opposite the jack) through my fingers, the wire coating feels a bit rough. I'm almost certain I haven't mishandled the headphones in the short amount of time I've had them, which is why I'm wondering.

Damn, relax...it's just a wire which meant to be bended. As long as there're no visible damage and no disconnects it's all good.

Sorry, it's just my first pair of decent headphones (first time head-fi-er) so I didn't want anything to be messed up.

LEAVE NOW WHILE YOU STILL CAN AND SEARCH NO FURTHER!

Seriously, this hobby, while rewarding totally takes from your bar nights and other luxury items.

Ok thanks guys. Guess the roughness just happens in manufacturing?

I wouldn't worry at all, unless you're hearing very odd sound coming from them, it's most likely just some excess rubber from molding, or it could be a matte rubber finish.
