Yeah in fact it's already the second time I've bought this type of
headphones. The first time it was the same issue, so I threw them away and
bought a new pair because it was cheap. But this time I wanted to repair
them in the hope they'd last a bit longer (not because I thought it'd be
cheaper)...

"you get what you pay for" strikes again. Damn.
