Baby O HE60 driver mounting issue | Headphone Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org

Wondering if anyone else had this issue and how it was fixed. One of the drivers in my HE60 started to move as I move the headphone. After opening up the cup I found that there is a rubber band that is part of the mounting contraption and it snapped due to age. Now I need to get a replacement from Sennheiser if they even have any available or find some other alternative. Regular rubber band is a bit too stretchy. I think a good replacement would be a rubber belt used in CD or tape players. I have a new set I was going to use for my Akai tape deck but the sizes are too small so now I'm on the hunt.

Well after some googling looks like its a common issue, hopefully Sennheiser still has replacement parts.

In case anyone else is in this situation in the future. Sennheiser still has some parts left. These are called O-rings part number 083412 They only had one in stock so I back ordered a few as backup. A pair of drivers (sold only in pairs) cost $463 I was thinking I would get them as backup just in case but that price made me think twice about it. Although comparing to the cost of the headphones them self its not that bad I guess.
