Thanks, that's extremely useful. Bass through to the start of upper mids looks fairly similar apart from the dip from 35Hz down (which I doubt would be perceptible), and although the increase from 9K up is quite sharp, the overall change looks modest enough that they may meet my criteria...

  Thanks for this summary of my post, assuming that's what it's intended as, couldn't help giving my life story along with it. Specifically, I was seeking to compare against Sennheiser HD580/600 as a reference point, agreed the rest is irrelevant.   To clarify, I want the classic LCD-2 bass...

Apologies for the length of this post - unfortunately I've always been incapable of being concise - and thanks for any advice... I'm hoping to establish how the upper frequencies of LCD-2.2 and Fazor compare to my two current reference points, Sennheiser HD580s and Beyer T1s. As background...

Need these to be repaired once again, by someone who knows what they're doing as I can't risk any further loss of cable length - opening post has been edited to reflect current situation.

Thanks very much for this - have managed a makeshift repair with a colleague doing the soldering, and although it's very messy and the connector is cheap and not very presentable, at least they're working again. The wires seemed very tricky to work with though.

The connector on my MTPCs has come off, so I'm after someone to reterminate them with as little loss of length as possible and will pay accordingly. UK preferred to keep times and shipping costs down, if not I'd like to keep it within the EU to avoid customs charges.   As of February 2014 the...

Thanks everyone for the replies, I was informed of an EU-based company via PM who I'm awaiting a quote on for the Grados, but I will also investigate Grado resellers over here. Indeed there's a co.uk website which links to their authorised distributor and also includes a repair enquiries section...

A couple of my headphones require recabling or retermination, and although they should be fairly straightforward jobs for someone who vaguely knows what they're doing (ie not me), I'd rather pay someone else for peace of mind, especially as I'm thinking of selling one or both pairs (obviously...

In retrospect it's a bit of a stretch to think it could have been that, unless it dislikes having power restored to it just a few seconds after it was taken away, given that its power-up cycle is more like 30 seconds. With the bad weather over here we've had numerous momentary power cuts since...

Gave this another go last night to see if time had healed it but obviously it was exactly the same. I prised the base off to take a look and nothing seemed amiss, not that I'd have a clue what to look out for. Certainly the jack seems to be making full contact, and that was the only idea I had...

A few hours ago I accidentally hit the switches on my two power sockets while moving some stuff around, and, without thinking, turned them on again a few minutes later (so I can't even use the excuse of having toggled them quickly off and on). Ever since then, all I've got out of my EMP is an...

Not been able to look any further into repairing these for the past few months, but now I have the opportunity I want to get them fixed and preferably sell them on. A warranty claim appears to be out of the question since I'm not the original owner and I've had them nearly a year myself so...

The cable on both channels of my SA5ks has more or less gone, and it's definitely at the earcup end rather than the Y-splitter as some people have apparently had problems with. I really don't want to open them up myself, so is there anywhere in the UK that is likely to be able to repair...

This is my first real post here, but as seasoned lurker and owner of several midrange headphones the traditional greeting is perhaps redundant, as my wallet is truly beyond salvation. This monetary imbalance has compelled me to start paring down my collection. I had originally intended to...
