Hello! I have an aviation active noise cancelling headset Sennheiser HMEC 26-2. Recently I had an accident with this headset. While getting of the seat and out of the cockpit the cable was wrapped around my leg. When I stepped out the whole right speaker seperated from the rest of the headset...

I bought a pair of DT770 Pro but the 3.5mm jack is broken. When attempting to repair it, I encountered some kind of reinforcement material woven with the copper in the red and white wires. What is the best way to remove it?

Hi all, Apologies I know this is probably in the wrong forum, but I can't post anywhere else yet. I've had to do some surgery to my B+W P9's and have taken out the foam layer due to cracked leather and a little bit of mould growth (yah I know, pretty disgusting). Does anyone know where I...

Hello. Today I put my Arya's down to go get some water, and when I put them back on my head, the right channel was no longer playing. After some trial and error I discovered that the cable is fine, the driver is fine, the amp and dac are fine, but the jack seems to be damaged. If I only plug the...

I had a 2 pin cable pin break off inside my moondrop aria (og). I then compounded this issue by breaking off a drill bit inside the same hole and damaging the socket. At this point it's pretty clear the sockets gone but is that the end of my aria's? How hard is it to crack open my aria's? Do...

Hi everyone, I'm working on a small project. I have received 3 Bowers & wilkins PX5 Bluetooth headphones. They all have the same problem. They turn on and everything works immediately with regard to the LED and in the app. They can be seen in the app on the phone, when I press the ANC button...

My son has the DT 770 PRO 80 Ohm headphones with the 3.5 mm male plug and his cat chewed off the cable. I've fixed it 3 times. The first two times, I bought cheap cables off Amazon, and it did a weird thing where he could hear music but not voices. So I replaced the cable again and it did...

Ignore, they settled on a 900$ repair fee which I am OK with and is fair enough. Not expecting them to do it free nor did I act like it was not my fault.

I recently purchased a faulty Sony MDR-SA3000 with hope/expectation that all it needed was a cable repair. Instead the driver was completely dead, giving no ohm reading. Not being one to give up, and with a little soldering experience under my belt, I did some research and actually found a...

Hi, I have a pair of Dan Clark Ether C that I absolutely love. I saved up along time to afford them. They have been my daily driver headphones, I have been using them for 4 years now. A few months ago I noticed the volume on the left speaker started fading down and staying a touch lower then...

Hello all! I just purchased a gorgeous Quicksilver Audio Headphone amp from a really great seller who is active both here and on reddit. From what I've learned, Quicksilver amps are covered by a 3 year warranty with the original buyer. The seller, being an awesome guy, has offered to help me...

So I have to confess a serious sin, over the last few years, which included lots of travelling, I have truly busted up my Fostex TH-x00's. The paint on the headband and hangers had been peeling off for a while, and ultimately the headband snapped at the joint, like so many others. So what does...

Dear All Head-fiers Does anyone know the time for a BHSE to be repaired by Justin? Justin has confirmed with me that, mine needs a new PCB in mid October. But since then, nothing has been heard from him. May I know what the estimated time should be? Thanks a lot.

I have two pretty decent bluetooth headsets which needs some external adjustments... 1) Plantronics Pulsar 590 (p590): a) the mount on both sides breaks off. 1 photo shows that the very bottom of the headband attachment is simply rolled away ... and so on both sides ... a very weak part of...

I've bit the bullet and bought a 404/006 Stax set but as expected, the glue of the earpads turned into a sticky goo and the ESL units came loose inside the case. This is actually the second time I see this happening, the previous set were the Lambda Nova Basics a few years ago. Back then I...

Repairs and Modifications Hi all, I've recently picked up the hobby of repairing headphones, bought in job lots or as spares/repairs. For many of them the repairs have been quite straight-forward, but when it comes to physical damage; it's rarely a simple fix. Using a 3D Printer however can...

Hi, I've recently been having fun repairing headphones and headsets, bought in joblots off ebay. There have been some lucky finds, with several really nice cans just needing a broken jack replacing or an internal wire re-soldering. The thing I always dread though is finding a dead driver, as...

I was using my Sz-2000 and the hd650 as daily drivers since 2017 and saw many people here having issues with the build quality of the sz2000 headphones and I didn't take it seriously until my pair finally gave up on my poor maintenance habit (not using stangs and throwing them in my bag from...

Hi ! I am using these Soundmagic E10C for a while now, until yesterday while walking the wires got struck in door knob and got pulled really hard that the left side speaker came out of the casing (yes, the earphones didn't left my ears 😆). The solder joints were perfectly intact that I even...

I was trying to repair a headphone and a screw from the earcup got attracted onto the driver, while trying to take it out, the screw got moved around on the center bump of the driver, this left a large depression and many smaller ones on the driver. Will this affect sound quality, how can I...

I recently bought a pair of audeze lcd 2's secondhand with a broken rightside driver for 150 euros. I was wondering if There is anyway to repair this driver or to find a replacement somewhere. I saw some threads about drivers failing on audeze headphones so it seems like it's a fairly common...

Since my Sennheiser HD280PRO had the right driver voice coil snapped right at the edge of the membrane, I must find another one for substitution. I can't find this exact model for my headphone on the internet, so I contacted Sennheiser to know if they have in stock. I could also buy a new set...
