George,
I'm surprised the warrantee is not transferrable. That doesn't seem right unless it's country specific. As far as the cable goes, if they won't be able to use the warrantee, then you can also try the route of doing a custom cable. My IE800s will soon be expiring in warrantee and if I get that issue then I'd probably just get some aftermarket custom cables. There are risks there of course. I generally wouldn't take these to the gym though. Taking a cheap wireless and water resistant pair to the gym would be my suggestion.
It seems that the problem is only with one sennheiser representative from Romania, others were very nice to me after contacting them
I should really do as you say, i wonder who can do me a good custom cable, i think that in Romania i should be able to ask a custom in ear monitors company to do, but i still have high hopes that sennheiser might help even with post warranty, by at least, providing repairs or new ones for a little price... i really hope so.
I just received response from sennheiser, it seems that the problem of hardening cables has been totally solved some time ago.
now, i know that i would be buying an older version, which has the hardening problem, and probably i will have to send for replacements, but i am optimistic that everything will work out, now only if i would have the money to buy them...
