im starting to get that same cracking noise, but only when im listening at loud levels. seems to be triggered by bass in my 595s.

should i send my 595s in? they are still under warranty...

If it's only happening at loud levels, it's more then likely clipping. Clipping happens if you have a source that has massive EQ effects that are straining the op amps of your headphone out. Prolonged clipping can be bad for the headphones....so the first thing you should do is eliminate all EQing. If you're still getting some clipping, then invest in a headphone amp.

Put your X-fi in Audio Creation mode with Bit-matched playback.

i just got of the phone with a senn service center, and they said they will fully replace my set with a new ones if i bring em in, and its about a half hr away from me. I think ill bring them in if i pass by sometime.

 

[Davesrose]

OK....get them replaced and have the same thing happen on your new headphone!

We're not making this phenomenon known as clipping up. Have you tried Advil's suggestion??

How can I open them up ?

 

[Ruckus]

Good idea. Just return them and get a new one just in case...never know. Nice warranty.

Just grab the ear pads and pull them off. Takes a little bit of force but they do come off. If you find the right point on the pad to pull from you will see it lifting off from the cup.

Follow the first couple steps on there, and then unscrew the plastic thing if you want to get at the driver.

Sometimes it is just the song too sadly...ive had a couple piano pieces that clip with heavy play that I noticed first back on HD497s and then hear some more on the HD595 even with my 0404. It is more smoothed out but there are just some mixes that are yucky

edit: thanks for the pdf
