@qusp I have done a few electrical  repair jobs but nothing on something small like a headphone jack. I'm assuming you're talking about the ground pin on the inside of the output jack? how would i go about getting in and bending the ground pin back?

nope nope, i sent my cans into grado for a warranty repair on the rattle, and while they were in i asked the guys there to swap the input jack for a mini plug. It is straight though

@3602, as the headphone jack didnt work, i removed it and the hold switch and used a piece of shoestring to make a little handle for it to hang off my backpack shoulder strap on a carabiner. I was thinking that maybe since it shakes a bit while i walk it mite be the issue...  @wolfen, I...

so a few years back my 5G ipod vid headphone jack broke, i replaced it, it broke again within a few weeks. that and my phone breaking caused me to get an iphone. about 6 months later the Jack on the iphone broke. i brushed these experiences off as planned obsolecence, so I started researching...

alright, please stop shunning me and help me out. er else ima have to dive in head first to this purchase. Im Prolly gonna end up gettin the FX500 but Im worried the T3 may make the bass overpowering because theres not much EQ control. I found a good conditioned set from another head-fier...

Hold Switch and Headphone jack broke a long time ago, so i tore out the components and used a shoelace to make a strap(AWESOME because the amp+LOD cable+ Ipod got pretty ****in bulky in the pocket) so now i just hang it off my belt. I just recently Installed a 240gb Hard drive and a new battery...

ok, now im leaning towards the JVC FX500. I swear i cant find anything on this forum about which IEM's sound good with the T3. I'm feeling inclined to check out the porta amp forum, but i feel like that will be more focused on the amp rather then the phones. anyone used FX500 with T3 before?

Sorry everyone, I'm way out of it today. didnt get any sleep last night, but i cant sleep yet kus im going to a concert tomorrow night, and i dont wana be tired for that. anyways.... Im lookin for something between $100-$200. If there is a significant quality difference in something slightly...

Hello all, so you guys were able to help me find a great portable amp. I can now leave my Grado 325's safe at home without sacrificing much sound quality. Im currently using Sony MDR-710's. Pretty decent lightweight headphones, but like every other pair of headphones I've ever bought, the left...

oh god........ I JUST BOUGHT MY SIMPLE HEADPHONE AMP!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll spend 300(more for a portable tube) if I thinkits worth it. But since these gratos are low impedence, I don't think I really need a lot of drive, just a complementative sound signature. I'm def gonna use it with the 5G video... Was thinking about diymodingit, but decided to leave it because...

I am also in the same position, but with my portable setup. Yeah, I used to only use my Grado's at home, but music just got so dull without them... so now i wear this HUGE beanie over the cans to keep them from falling off my head while skating around campus. anyway, the headphone jack is...

yeah that seems like a great option, but dont want to spend that much, especcially if I already need to get an amp. could definitely consider diyModing the video, but I already got my DIY project going on till near the summer. (im building an acoustic guitar.) i guess that leaves me time to plan...

sooooo, I initailly set out to find a DAC/AMP combo to use with my iphone and SR325i's. the Headphone jack is crapping out(no not from a ****ty bassinet to mini plug converter, but because apple planned it that way) which is lame because the only reason I bought it was because the headphone jack...

yeah i just saw that DIY fourm for the first time. im new here, my bad.
