I've got a small problem with my k701 headphones. Sometimes, when I move the cable going into the left ear cup, the audio cuts out in the left channel until I move it around again. It must be a bad soldering joint. I'm wondering if I could send these off to somebody to get them repaired. Maybe a recable if anyone could give me a ballpark estimate on how much that will cost. I'll just end up buying a pair of k702 headphones and using these for the road if I can't get it fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

SEE PROS & CONS. NOTE: The clamping factor will obviously differ from person to person, but I'm surprised to find little mention of it, as it is the sole reason I'd never think twice about...

I used Robert to repair my K701, which had a similar problem. He does excellent work as he also recabled my T1s.
Is that a link to his webpage or is Robert a user on this site?

Robert is the owner. His email is actually email@aphroditecu29.com
You can tell him Steve recommended him as Robert put his Zeus Hex24 balanced on my T1s.

Thanks. I'll contact him and see if he'd be willing to help out.
