I have some of these really great headphones, but the measly cable has an intermittent connection (break) right near the jack. Before I attempt to repair, can anyone tell me what the cable is like inside, and suggest a good replacement plug that is a good quality and fit for the cable?
Best Regards,
Paul
Hi Paul,
The A8's are covered by a 3 year exchange warranty. Any dealer can perform the swap. If the A8's are over 3 years old, or might have suffered 'abuse' then, in the US, any B&O dealer can exchange them for $60 plus tax, and shipping (as applicable), something similar ought to be in effect elsewhere in the world.
If you need any personal attention, let me know.

Thanks Russ - I really appreciate knowing this as I was about to dissect them!
The
A8s were a gift (UK), under 3yrs old and I have all the packing, but
sadly no receipt so no proof of purchase. I will contact a dealer
anyway, to see if they are prepared to help me out. Fingers crossed!
The only abuse they suffered is being loved so much they were used daily :-) [and I miss them a lot.] I treated them very carefully, being sure not to bend the wires near the jack plug or kink them, but as with many headphones of this ilk the supplied wires are insubstantial so it was kind of inevitable they would go with daily use.
Cheers, Paul
