Well, today I got my Grado Sr 80 after waiting several weeks for my retailer getting them back in stock. After a long day at the library studying I was really looking forward to pick em up at my local post office. When I finally get home at 19:00 I pack them upp, connect them to my dac + extension cord and starts playing some flacs from my laptop. So after 3 houres wearing the phones and doing nothing else then being at the computer, studing, walking around in dorm, and not even once applying force to the headphones, the armature, the part with the rod that hold the driver housing, just falls apart!!! After just 3 houres they break, and I haven´t done nothing but normal usage!
The damage is exactly the same as this:

Ok, I guess I got a dud or whatever its called, but it still pisses my that my new toy won´t even hold for a evening, and that I now have to wait for a replacement / replacement part. SHAME ON YOU GRADO!
I diden´t really mean the shame on you part, because it can really happen anything, not mather what quality check, guess I just had bad luck.
Has this happend anyone else? And have you fixed it succesfully, or is a replacement the only way to go?
