I brought a pair into David Clark for repair. The Customer Service person
there told me not to wrap the cable around the headset (like everyone does)

the headset itself.


I don't like the DC's because they feel very mechanical on your head
compared to the modern headsets. I learned long ago to wrap the cord
around the headset in such a way that you don't put any pressure on
the end that goes into the headset itself. You just need to allow
another 2 inches of cord before you start wrapping it.
