No, I sent my pair back with a bent up spring that came out and they repaired it for me for free. You have to ship it to them yourself though, they won't pay for that.

I actually joined here just because of this thread.  Google brought me here from a quick search about this lame spring.  It's funny because I'm the 3rd one on this topic with OCD that just couldn't handle letting this stay out of place.  Mine came out when my 1 year old got a hold of it.

 

At any rate, I got mine back in by pushing the first ring in to the jack, while twisting clockwise.  From that point, it makes things super quick if you twist the spring counter clockwise while you push in the remaining large twists, one by one.  By twisting it like you're unscrewing it, you're compressing the spring and it makes it easier to shove the next ring in.

 

What a pain.  I'll let my son play with the HD280 pros instead.  No spring, and less bass response.

When I got my m50s the spring jack was faulty initial ie. I get a live charge on the jack and get mini-shocks when I touch it. That has been fix after I poked around with the spring area though.
