Hey guys, I'm regretfully reporting what I hope for the sake of Sleek Audio is an isolated incident limited to my own experience. I bought the SA6s in mid-March and LOVE their sound. Well about a month after buying them I noticed that one of the phones sounded different from the other in a way that is difficult to explain. At first I thought I had damaged the hearing in one of my ears, but upon taking off the eartips and pulling out the treble tubes I discovered that one of them was cracked, resulting in the sound difference (and made me happy to see that I was not going deaf!).
Anyways, fast forward to today, June 28th, I had a similar problem that started early this past week and I pulled out the treble tubes to notice that both of them were cracked this time and also one of them had broken into small fragments that I had to painstakingly dig out from the inside of the tube that houses the dynamic driver. I'm not sure whether to demand replacement tubes from the company since I have a feeling that this is a problem that will keep happening. I do not, repeat, do not abuse my earphones, but merely wear them several times a week to enjoy music so I don't feel that this problem is a result of my own mishandling of the SA6's.
So have any of you had a similar problem, or is just my own unforunate situation. I absolutely love these things, but I must admit that the whole replaceable parts gimmick doesn't seem like as much of an advantage if they break every couple of months...
Thanks in advance for any advice guys!
