Had no issue getting it replaced the first two times...

Interesting thought, but wouldn't that void the warranty fiddling with them? How sensitive is the stuff in there? I am one clumsy man with massive hands

Already on my third pair in two years. First issue right driver died, second time the pads started disintegrating and now after a peaceful night of coding, the right driver just died. Thinking about owning these after warranty runs out is a scary though... 😐
