I noticed this in the first few hours when I got them.
Maybe one time out of 10 when I put them on there is something that cracks/snaps and makes quite a loud sound on the left side.
I can't put a finger on where exactly the sound is coming from or what it is. But now I have to be very careful all the time which is pretty annoying. 
 
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? It definitely only happens on the left side. 
 
Should I just return them?
 
Such a shame, these headphones sound absolutely amazing!

Loose cable?  If not, exchange them.
​
Edit: I misunderstood, thought you meant a sound from the headphones while you were wearing them, you should exchange them.

Yea exactly, the sound is really good. I'll just exchange them then. It really doesn't sound right. Thanks

I remember hearing a slight cracking noise from the plastic contruction of my HD600 whenever i stretched the headband, nothing to worry about really. I've seen/heard worse constructions.

Thanks for letting me know.
 
But since I can just exchange them I'm gonna do that and if the second pair I get are the same I'll have to live with it.
 
But at the moment it feels like they are going to break whenever I put them on my head. They probably wouldn't break even if I treated them really badly but it doesn't feel right.

I had the same problem. I exchanged them and the new ones don't make that sound anymore.

Nevermind, a week later they started making that same sound. I find it VERY odd that both my pairs have had that problem but only one other person has experienced it. 
 
This time I was extremely careful, thinking maybe I might have caused the problem in some way, but I still managed to get it to make that sound when putting them on. It doesn't happen all the time though and I think it happens mostly when the headband is stretched out, I don't know how to explain but you know you can change the "size" of the headphones to fit on your head and when they are only a few steps "open" it doesn't make the sound but when I have them where I want them to be it happens again.
