Headphones

I've been using a pair of Taotronics Soundsurge 46s for almost 5 years now, and recently there has been more people commenting on the music I'm listening to or other things of that nature a lot, when that almost used to never happen for the first several years I've had them. I almost always listen to about the second or third loudest setting in my phone so I haven't been turning it up over time. I listen to heavy metal and lately a ton of brutal death metal.

Since I've had them for so long and I'm overdue for some new ones, they are literally starting to fall apart and the stitching in the cups has come undone completely. That might be the answer right there idk.
