    Hey

    You knw the creative noise canx headphones that come with the 1530.

    Well my girlfriend washed them in the wash, and guess what they are clean, and they still work.

    Good quality.

    Just though I would share with people, dont know why, but hey someone would probably want to wash them one day, LOL.

    Are they any easier on your ears, because of the fabric softener!

    Dump your girlfriend. Date your headphones. Like music to your ears.

    ok I knew it would come to this...........................

    Wshing instructions.

    Wash on warm water with one cup of powder with fabric softner.

    Spin on max

    Then rinse

    After they come out of the wash put on a dinner plate in the cuboard.

    Tell the boyfriend after he has come home from work, and after he has had a few so he wont get mad.

    plug them in and way you go clean soft headphones with no ear wax.

    DO NOT BLEACH
    DO NOT IRON

    I have to wonder why you even mention the girlfriend. Did SHE leave them in your pockets? Or did she pick them up off the dresser and drop them in with a load of laundry? How could she have thought you would get mad unless she intentionally put them in the washing machine?

    You've got a GREAT girlfriend that will do your laundry! :) :)

    Its really my own fault, I left them in my shorts and she did not check the pockets before she did the wash.

    Hey if you are going to do a job, do it right.

    I dont make her supper and forget the plate... LOL

    :D
