Two weeks since I bought goldring gx 100. I got news for you.
My right earphone stopped working. it is not working with anything. So it must be the wire, cut somewhere.
I don't believe this, this used to happen in 80's. I thought these expensive ones have gotten over that problem. The reason I spent that much money on it. Though I could not digest, earphones were this expensive.
I am careful while using this, with good old years of experience.
Recent cheap ear phones have not given these problems.
somebody gave me a used transcend T sonic 610, media player, with so much of usage by the owner and being thrown around, still it functions well.
If these big companies can produce products of this caliber, I can only blame my luck.
Next time I am sticking to some cheap stuff.
