A couple of weeks ago I chimed in yelling to the world that I just received my new RS-2s,the sound was wonderful,everything seemed great.
Fast forward two days later when I notice a fair size gouge in the inner ridge of one of the cups.( not to mention a nastily crimped cable).
I thought "Well its only cosmetic,live with it".
Returned them.Even after pointing out the flaw to the MGR,I was told that "its no big deal,teac is a soft wood" TEAC ?.These headphones are mahogany not teac I exclaimed.
The whole idea that I had to explain that $600 headphones should not look this way blew me away.I could feel the "Yeah whatever" attitude oozing from every pore. Anyways,I left with RS-2 #938 and my sanity.
Just had to vent.
