Sennheiser Headphones

Post by InTheBlue » Thu, 10 Feb 2011 9:49 pm

My girl bought me an expensive pair of Sennheiser headphones in Changi last Christmas for use when I fly.

I have not used them much and have kept them in their case whilst not in use but I now find they don't work. They are the noise cancelling model. I Have tried batteries etc but to no avail.

As they were bought in Sing, I guess there is no chance of the store fixing them especially as they were bought in Changi and over 1 year old.

Does anyone know where I can get them fixed or they will rank as one of the most expensive purchases per use that I have?

Cheers

Thanks and near my office too! Just goes to show that working in Science Park does have some benefits. What serendipity. :)

And good luck. Unless it is something trivial you would probably be able to fix by yourself, it likely will cost you more than a brand new set.
Had this doubtful pleasure with my Onkyo AV receiver to be fixed by the authorized SC for more than I paid for the brand new 2y ago. Damn. I bought this bloody onkyo thinking it was more reliable brand then my defectlesss so far for 6y Pioneer AV r. You never stop learning.

It's always the way in Singapore! It cost more to get something fixed than it does to buy new.

Any other country it would be the other way round! :x :x :mad: :mad:

I am afraid this is in majority of so called civilized countries. Smaller the device more likely it can not be even possible to get it disassembled. More complicated devices = all modular and the defects are diagnosed up to the module level. I can understand the reasons (more time and skills needed to diagnose within the module = more it costs) but I found a kind of extreme that a 2y old receiver will cost you ++SGD600 only to replace one part and only for this part, not for the service actually. People are complaining about this all over the world so this is not Onkyo SG actually but Onkyo in general.

Hi InTheBlue,

This is Rosmadi writing from Sennheiser Consumer Electronics GmbH. I was hoping to send you a PM but since this is only my first post in this forum, I was unable to do so.

'nakatago' was spot on with the address of our service centre in Singapore. When bringing your Sennheiser headphones down to the service centre, please remember to bring along your proof of purchase (sales receipt or warranty certificate). Otherwise, you will be obliged to pay for any repairs carried out.

Should you have any other queries, please feel free to contact me.

Kind regards,
Rosmadi Mahmood

Rosmandi,

Very kind of you to get in touch with me personally. I am trying to hunt down the receipt but It may be over 1 year old now. I will certainly bring the headphones to you this week for you to have a look at.

many thanks,

ITB :D

They are not spamming the search engines. They spam every website they can in order to build links. Search programs optimize the order of results (in part) by how many other websites refer to the web page. So these spamming morons put in their one line 'witty' posts in as many forums as they can in the hopes of building up link counts.

I understand that but there was no URL in his post to help build links....am I missing something?
