Hi guys,
I am a first year student in musical profile at the university of montreal, and thus I don't have a lot of money to spend on my favorite hobby: music.
After hiding on these forums for a while invisibility, I finally saved some money for a few months and bought a Grado SR125 because it is getting a lot of good and positive reviews.
So I receive my headphones. And they sound OK, "not bad" like we say in Quebec...but really uncomfortable..really...
But..after a 5 or 6 hours of listening the other day, I remove the headphones and noticed there was blood in my ears!!! I was ascared because I thought that my ears canal was bleeding!
It turns out that the Grado pads have rubbed againt my ears so bad, that my ears become red and then they bleed...ouch!
So I called the wheeler dealer I bought the headphones from him to complain to him that my ears are bleading, so he sais that he will not take them back because it have been more than 30 days of purchase, and that these headphone are not meant for women!!! (because we have delicate ears)
So I am really dishearted and dissapointed that my investment in thease headphone was in vain. I am back to my 5$ Costco headphones, while watching my Grado Sr125 just sit there.
Is there something to be done?
Any help would be appreciated.
