Great Headphones. Anyone having issues with the flimsy chord?

No problem with the cord. Sound is superb. However, the metal post pulled out of one of the earpieces. Put it back with superglue and has been fine.

I have not had any problems with these headphones but I live in a house with no surrounding interference. If I have any complaints, it's that the controls are easy to hit and mess up when handling the sides of them while they are on your head. You have to be precise when hanging them on the charger or they won't charge. I only use them for listening to TV in the bedroom. I don't feel that the quality is good enough for music listening.

I have not. I did have a problem with the plastic surrounding the internal cables separating after about 6 months (those were the cheaper ones.) For these particular ones, it's only been 2 months and my volume is starting to go in and out of my left bud and I never play it at full capacity. -(

I just received my pair and am currently putting them through their paces after a full charge. Even when my phone is right next to me, the headphones seem to cut off/skip past the first few seconds of each track.

I haven't had any problems, and if I did, I'd prob mod the headphones to add a 1/8 jack and then just buy ankther cord.

I've had mine for over a year. About 6 months ago, the cord by the speaker began to break. The copper wire is now exposed (I've taped it) but the speaker still works fine.

Hey bud, so the earphones are originally and honestly are really amazing. I lost mine after 2 weeks. Very clumsy like that. But sorry, won't be able to answer warranty questions. But earphones are totally worth it. If you have the $$$ ofcourse!

Mine are defective too, these are terrible. You have to hold down that little plastic piece for the headphones to work. Worst headphones I've purchased and for this price it is BS

I have not had any issue with my headphones, though they came with a 1 year manufacturer's warranty. I have also heard that Grado is extremely good about repairing your headphones for cheap after the warranty has expired, but I don't have any firsthand experience with it.

Mine have been awesome... sound is incredible. I work out four days a week and no issues so far!

They sound terrific. I love the sound of these better than my wired V-Moda headphones but there is a known issue with phone calls constantly disconnecting and re-connecting. The manufacturer is aware of it and recommended the earlier version if I wanted to have functional bluetooth phone calls but the earlier model has more bass. I enjoy the sound so much that when a call comes in, I prefer to plug in a cable if the call is going to last more than 2 to 3 minutes which is when the bluetooth connection starts to drop.

I'll raise my hand here as well, I've also been through three pairs with the same issue and also love these earphones. Shure have been fantastic in replacing them for free under warranty. Sadly my most recent pair were lost on a flight, tempted to order these again but would love a pair that doesn't lose sound in one ear and stay in the ear when exercising. Any suggestions?

Nope, they really have fantastic build quality so I don't believe you would need them. I am a HEAVY headphone user, and I haven't had the issue of needing that replaced.But still, no replacement cable yet. I got an email from them about checking the warehouse to see if there are some... But so far I've heard nothing back.

I had to have mine replaced after less than a month. The volume/skip controls were the reason I had it replaced. The connector rusted I think. With my current ones I have been very careful in protecting them from direct skin contact. 3 months later and still good. I really don't think they are sweat resistant.

That is certainly a problem I've never had, and I use them every day. While I cannot predict for you, my own experience is that they are quite comfortable, and the long cord is a brilliant feature. My computer setup requies me to roll around a lot, and the extra-long cord provides great freedom.

I like these headphones too and I haven't experienced any noticeable cable tangling. In contrast, my other most-used headphones are Shure SE535-V but what I don't like about them is exactly what you said about the Sony!

I ordered mine on July 14, 2014, and as of about a week ago (less than three months after my initial purchase) I have lost audio in one ear bud. The cause seems to be a loose connection close to the base of the zipper, at the joint. I can twist and contort the cable to get a brief moment of sound but unless I hold it in place, inevitably the connection breaks and I lose sound again. With anything, there will be imperfections so maybe I just got a bad one in the batch, but $10 for each month these ear buds worked properly seems very expensive.
