1MORE H1707 Triple-Driver Over Ear

[Jon995]

" 2.5mm balanced" ....
We assume you mean 2.5 mm (mono) on the ear-cup end.
And 3.5mm ( TRRS) on the amp end.

No, it's 2.5mm (TRRS) on the amp end. I needed it to use with ibasso DC01.

How do you get the pads off w/o damaging the darn thing? (I've heard they aren't removable, but many folks seem to have done just that).
This thread might have the procedure, but it is over 100 pages long?
Please help!

Use a dinner knife or blunt spudger to slowly go around the edge of the pads, lightly levering it until they come off. They're just glued on. You can't reuse the pads but you won't damage the headphones.

Just carefully pry them off with a flat head tool. It’s actually a very simple procedure, and depending on the pads you’ve replacing them with, you will need to re use the plastic brackets from the old pads.

I'm assuming you can just glue the OEMs back on. That is, the stock pads that are gently pried off are not damaged (and still usable) after that brute-force removal -- yes?

I haven't heard of anyone doing that, when I removed mine the fabric at the back of the pads ripped.

Possibly but I found the stock pads made my ears too hot (I have that problem with overears in general) so switched to the oval pads designed for beats, also very similar to skullcandy pads. They're very comfortable but the double sided tape I used to attach them to the plastic rings won't stick properly so I have to handle them carefully. I need to redo the job at some point. I didn't notice any dramatic sound improvement.. it may have got worse, so I wouldn't bother if you're good with stock pads.

Well, I've had the 1More's for almost 2.5 yrs, and not many hours on them.
If I can ECONOMICALLY (and reversally) mod them -- say a cables -- so I can improve their compressed bass, that may worth some effort.
Maybe 1More will release an improved model.

Or, maybe it's time to move on ... the Sivga Oriole

1More support got angry at me for even asking about replacement pads, so don't hold your breath.

Number 1, A-holes, and more!! They must have outsourced the design to another engineering outfit. The marketing and distribution are entirely separate entities. I.e., The scum bags you dealt with! Effers!

Love these headphones but the titanium driver + ceramic tweeter are too much bright. Everything got overshadowed by them, even bass.

I wish i had gotten the silver version instead of the gold one

 

[Pesado]

Alright, my definitive fix was to replace the driver with one of my liking and now 1more triple has become 1less single

The infamous titanium driver and cursed ceramic tweeter

It's perfect now, at least for my taste

 

[dpump]

Please send me those cursed ceramic tweeters!

Since new, my Slivers have had a loose right-hand reflex plate. That round, plastic glassy thing you see behind "grille". Tried to tighten by dis-assembling, repositioning and reassembling with a bit more torque on the screws. Did not work!
