Greetings,
So I've had a few horrible encounters with the right-ear side of my Sr80i. On and off it would work, sometimes rattles, sometimes play very quietly. 

At the moment, it just won't play unless I apply pressure with my hand, and while moving it away, it will play for a split-second. If I put a high speed fan next to it, it will play (screeching/rattling of course).

Anyone has any idea what could it be? 

Thanks in advance, 
Uare14

Sounds like a lose or bad connection in the cups from what you are describing.  If in warrantry (or out of warrantry and unmodded) I would contact grado.  I believe they have a pretty reasonable service fee for out of waranty repairs as well.  If you have modded them then you should know how to get into the cups, where I would check all the connections, and resolder them as needed.
