Has anyone else had a problem with the cables stiffening?

I have not. I did have a problem with the plastic surrounding the internal cables separating after about 6 months (those were the cheaper ones.) For these particular ones, it's only been 2 months and my volume is starting to go in and out of my left bud and I never play it at full capacity. -(

As of yet I have not had a problem with them, but it hasn't yet been a year.

I have stopped using mine because the bridge cable is not snug resulting in a poor connection or no connection. My guess is it is your bridge cable.

It is a little stiffer than some but not enough that I questioned it...maybe you received a faulty one.

Well I'm starting to have problems with the cable to be honest. I use it beside my bed with my iPad. It usually doesn't get moved around much, but it's beginning to cut out and make strange buzzing sounds.

I have had my cables replaced twice, once a year. They send you a new pair, as long as it's within the warranty, with no problem. Both times, it seemed like there was a loose, wiring issue, causing sound to drop out of one of the sound engines.

I have two of them and have not experienced any such problem. I would suggest that you exchange them.

I've had mine for about two years...maybe longer and mine never unstiffened. I love them to death, but the cables are horrible. Note : they still work

Mine is a little stiff. I think it's suppose to be so it doesn't move by accident.

I had this same issue. I wound up having to buy extra audio cables. Was a pain in the ass.

I had the same problem initially - the tension on the cables is a little too tight. After using it a few weeks, the tension slacked and the plates fit together just fine. This machine does require frequent adjustments and maintenance. Check the pins and bolts often.

I had a similar issue, and it turned out that a cable inside had snapped. I called the manufacturer and purchased a replacement cable for about $7. It was easy to install, and certainly worth the cost/effort.

I just received delivery of this same Sony last Friday and have noticed the same thing. I have not done anything about correcting it because the delivery man who helped me secure the TV to the pedestal stand didn't think there was anything wrong. This isn't much help, but it's all I know for now.

I have noticed this and thought that it was a cable problem- maybe it isn't

Yes, the cables on my machine are real good....... Ever so often you will have to un twist it due to certain exercises but other than that I have really enjoyed my machine

I have not had that problem with this cable; I have experienced that with other knock-off no name brand cables I bought prior to purchasing this one. I have had this one for 3 or 4 months now with no issues. I hope you find this information helpful!September ~ AlteredAttic.com ;-)
