I know, that this answer is coming way to late, but for people with the same problem:

There is actually a predetermined breaking point in this headphones

As we all know, we can tilt the headphones

When we tilt the headphones flat, there is actually a little plastic knob to stop the headphones from tilting more.

But in the other direction the connection cable between the left and right speaker is preventing the speakers from tilting more.

So this cable will get stressed more and more over the years.

--> It will break at some point and then you wont hear anything on your right speaker

Its actually not that difficult to open up the headphones, if someone needs help just message me

(I believe this might be the same with the other versions of this model, but i am not sure about that)

Cant reach the screw either, if you could upload a video that would be best.

I have the MDR-1A i own it for 14 years now, however the cable is fine but the right driver is a bit quieter wich bothers me, its not software side.

there’s a very small screw that I cannot reach without removing the drivers. How can this be done?
