I had the idea of pushing my ears against the driver of my 770 pro and now the pads are too lose. Just thought I would give the thumbs down for this.

 

[kin3tix]

why did you do that in the first place?

Because I was frustrated with the fit. Does that make sense?

Wait... huh?

You squeezed the cans on your head so the pads compressed and the driver touched your ear, and then now the pads are loose? Or did you actually remove the pads altogether likea DIY mod, and then now they don't fit so well?

The former

I should have said the pads have protruded out. I guess

 

[LobsterSan]

Hm... that sucks.

Are you sure they are in all the way (are the DT770 pads made to be replaceable?) I know my Senn HD600 pads needed a pretty good pushing in to get them to snap back into place.

Barring that... maybe super glue? Just don't wear them while they're drying or you'll have DT770's on your head for the rest of your life (which might not be that bad of a thing!

)

No there ok. It can just get annoying when your ears are touching the drivers.

 

[Toe]

Are you talking about the gray pads that go around your ears, or the foam pad that covers the driver? I've taken my DT770s apart several times, it's pretty easy to remove/replace both of them.

 

[Matthew-Spaltro]

well the drivers are back to normal so the moderater can delete this thread if they wish.

 

[austonia]

hmmm i hope this isn't a common thing i just ordered a pair of these an hour ago from B&H. Supposed to be impressive bass & all around decent sound.

 

[LobsterSan]

austonia: don't worry. unless you plan to fiddle around with your headphones and dissasemble parts of them you shouldn't have a problem.

 

[gerG]

lmao...

Superglue and headphones is a combination that makes me laugh just to think about it. I would guarantee that you will earn a custom title if you mix these 2 item without all due caution.

Cant you just see some poor guy with a set of HD280s permanently attached to his head?

yeah, sure. just check out lobstersan's "king of dorks" thread.

 

[Joe Bloggs]

I bet his post was already inspired by that thread.

 

[gerG]

You are correct Joe, but at least LS can take his off. If those things were permanent he could wear an "American Tourister" tee shirt and check himself in as luggage!
