Annoying issue with MDR-V6

[ChocolateFinger]

I love these headphones, but I keep getting a crackle/popping sound coming from the left headphone. This happens only when I put them on, the foam inside the left headphone gets lightly compressed by my ear, and as it expands it makes the crackle sound. I don't know why only the left headphone does this, but it's really getting annoying. Along with that, anytime I move my head, I can hear the cheap material used in the left headphone making scratching noises or something. Anyone else have this problem?

I've had a few sets of V6's over several years and never had that problem.
 
I'd speak to the dealer and ask for an exchange.
Or you can easily change the earpads; the velour ones from Beyer are very popular.

Have you tried any other full sized headphones? If the same happens with them, it's probably your hair settling after being pushed out of the way by the earpad. Happens to me sometimes.
