Yeah... I was trying to stretch it a bit, and it snapped... What should I do?

join team blue tape!

can't you buy a replacement band from sennheiser?

 

[Schalldampfer]

Eh, I'm not too worried about cosmetics. Anything quicker? I want to listen pretty soon.

glue some black foam padding under the headrest part. Cut it out nicely, go old shool style!

Duct tape fixes anything.

Eh? I don't get what you mean. Oh, and I don't think they sell replacement headbands.

Ouch, I'd be crushed by the cosmetic defect

Good luck patching it back.. while you're figuring it out, let it burn.

Would super glue be enough to hold the thing together?

Take off entire padding.

Cut black foam in a strip and glue it under the part that lays on your head.

Cut it perfect with a hot wire/hot knife so it looks factory.

I... uh... don't see the need to do that... If I make the plastic come in contact together again, it looks just about perfect. And the foam is fine, too.

use a pencil and some duct tape

OMG!! That sucks. Could you show us (pics)?

I would use epoxy resin if i were you. Super glue will work for a while but become very brittle with age. Epoxy has a much longer life. Polyester resin for repairing car parts would work great as well. Bondo is one of its brand names.

I think I may try that resin recommendation. I snapped my headband a couple months ago while stretching it, too. Very sad day!

I've used black duct tape to hold it together.

On the bright side, that Senn vice-grip is gone.

On the down side, there's almost no clamping force at all anymore.

I would suggest that you take some epoxy glue, JB weld or something, and go to town.
