Review: The right side headphone stopped working 4 days after the return window. What now? - This item was used for a total of 3 hours at a moderate listening level while in my possession. I understand that the return "window" was closed 4 days prior to one side not working, but considering what I paid for this, what do I do now? This is crazy and frustrating. They sound great, but I'm now stuck with a $500 paperweight.
