Headphones dying? Unsure..

I just needed to get some feedback on this one; the headphones were literally okay (if in need of turning the volume up a bit) until yesterday. I've been a bit concerned when the cabling to the headset gets stiff, which seems to be a sign of them about to start failing, but I'm now having an issue where I can seem to hear some bass and lower tone voices kind of okay, but mid- to high-range sounds don't seem to register at all. A good instance was watching a piece of game footage with people commentating over the top of it. I could hear the gameplay (explosions, gunfire) okay, but not the voices of the people talking.

I don't have an additional headset to try it on, though my iPod earbuds seemed to register the sounds perfectly fine. Is my headset indeed dying? I'm also getting echoey sounds with music.
