Hey guys, looking for some feedback.
My main go to IEMs for the past while have been iM-590s. However, my first pair failed on me within 6 months of purchase. Sent them away to be replaced, and now the second pair has died (after 5 months). They both failed due to a faulty jack connection, i.e., one channel went dead. I treat my IEMs well, never wrapping them around my MP3 player, storing them in the cases provided, etc.
I'm looking for anyone's opinion or story on how long their IEMs typically last. Specifically if anyone owns or did own a pair of iM-590s it would be good to compare. I'm wondering if this is a normal amount of time for IEMs to last, or I should move on to a different pair of IEMs. I would prefer not to since they perform exactly as I want; blocking out the right amount of noise, giving out good SQ for a reasonable price, and having a good accessory kit that came with the headphones... Oh right, the only problem is they die quickly
Thanks for your input!
