Hi guys,

I just bought a pair of used CD3000's, and the pads and the headband are quite worn out. I'll order some replacement pads on audiocubes2, but the price of what seems to be the headband is a bit high. What do they call "headband assembly" ? Is it the leather headband with the plastic or metal structure that's inside or the whole headband (ie everything but the cups) ?

I may try to fix it myself, has anyone taken the headband apart ? I'm sure that i can get a good result, with care and good leather everything's possible

nobody ?

I'm pretty sure it's the entire headband assemble (everything but the cups) and that it requires desoldering and resoldering the drivers. I may be wrong though. Just order the pads and see if a local leather shop can create the leather part of the headband.

The headband assembly for the CD3000 is everything but the earcups.

I hadn't thought about the cable that is "single sided". You're right, even if I don't have to resolder the drivers, it'll still be complicated to change the headband. Let's go for the custom headband !

Thanks !
