Hello all!
I purchased a pair of Grado SR-225s in June 2nd-hand and have absolutely fallen in love with them. Unfortunately, however, something has happened to them and is causing the left ear piece to cut in at out. When the cable is slightly moved at the strain relief, the left channel cuts out. Right now, I believe my only solution is the cut off the old connector and replace it with a new one. My soldering skills are not that great but I do not believe soldering a new connector would be an issue. My problem is this... once the connector is removed, how am I going to know which wire is left, right, and ground without opening the ear pieces to test for continuity? I appreciate any input this community can offer as well as any alternate solutions that could be offered. Thanks!
