Audio Technica ATH M50X

Broken

Owned for 7 years, used Daily

Stress Points
The little thingy holding preventing the cup from moving out cracked. Fixed it with 3 zip ties. One of which head acts as the stopper, another head which acts as a holding point of this zip tie and another zip tie holding it in place, preventing the cup from moving outwards.
Positive Remarks
I've been using these daily for the last 7 years, dropped them dozens of times, and this was the first time they failed. Of course I had to wrap the headband, which was flaking, and replaced the earcup cushions.

    Unfortunately its a really common issue with that model, they sell repair kits on ebay like this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/373522830844

    Super glue and baking soda may work, just clean it with rubbing alcohol. Alternatively generic JB weld is a gift from the gods
