Both my 595 and 650s had a bad creak every time I moved my head or jaw. After much experimentation, I eventually traced the problem in both to the point where the arms hinge to the driver housing, where plastic meets plastic. Hope you know where I mean, but in any case where plastic moves against plastic an outrageous, and quite disproportionate, creak is send through the housing. Answer: a drop of oil--no more. Voila! No more creaking.
This seems like a trivial problem, but it would have been enough for me to reconsider keeping either phone. I read a review of the Stax 2020 the other day, and while the reviewer approved the sound, he commented that he wouldn't buy the phones due to a loud creaking in the housing. I knew exactly where he was coming from.
