Sup guys. Figured id just ask a question.... Today i was doing some wangin on my way home from work, and when i got home, i noticed a little stinkyness. Turned them back on, bumped them for around 5 minutes, stank went away, and they sound no different. Should i be worried?

From my understanding type r's don't have high thermal handling.

Mine at one point smell'd like wood burning when I did some serious bass notes. But it went away after playing normal hip hop. Hmm.
