No visual damage. My soldering skills are zero and none, lol. I wouldn't even know what to look for if I could even get the cans apart.

I will look into it...

I may just bite the bullet and order another pair.

After several weeks of taking up residents in bass heaven disaster has struck. I was listening to my SZ2000's yesterday and accidentally got the cord snagged on a bathroom drawer handle. Now my right driver is out :-(  I'm exploring several options on what to do next. On another note. Anyone...

Lol, yeah its been awhile. I neglected to mentioned I purchased equalizer from the app store and followed your suggestions as baseline settings. I also tried MolaEqualizer which I quite like except it has bugs.  I can't wait to hear how these cans sound once I get some space between my ears and...

I've been lurking on this thread for a while and decided to take the plunge and join the SZ2000/E12 Bass Club. All I can say is WOW!!! I didn't think bass like this was possible from a headphone. Its like your right next to the loudspeaker on the dance floor. This combination is just that good...

Raq05, I really could not have said it better myself. All I really want is nice bass, clear highs, portable, can stand up to everyday wear and tear, and doesn't need an amp to reach its potential. I don't really care about looks but it doesn't hurt if they are attractive. I also think Hip-Hop...
