Broken Audio Technica ATH-A700's

Pretty much, I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do to fix them. The simple back story is that the headphones were dropped from about 6 feet, and now when I wear them and move my head (mostly when I tilt my head forward or back) I can hear what seems like a tiny ball or something similar rolling around in a confined area approximately a tenth of the total volume of the headphone.

Does anybody know what this "ball" might be, if it is fixable, and if so, how or where I might be able to get it fixed.

Something on the inside of the headphone probably broke off and is rolling around inside the cups. Carefully open it up (remove the pads and then remove the screws securing the driver assembly to the cup) and take a look for what's loose. Pictures of the internals never hurt either.

Thanks for the reply. So you figure it's just some non-essential piece floating around, considering the headphones still sound fine?
