Haven't posted in a long while (making the wallpapers for HF was fun) but recently bit the bullet and grabbed the Grado PS1000. After falling in love with the Grado sound, thanks to my 225i's, I couldn't hold back any longer and now I'm in audio bliss. But there's a small problem. Unfortunately, the rod on the left post is loose and slips down, in part due to the weight of the metal. The right side is fine and tight but I keep having to readjust the left side.
I can send them back to the shop where I purchased them or directly to Grado in the US, but would have to wait (probably a considerable time) for them to repair it and have them sent back. If it was a serious problem I wouldn't hesitate, but this is more of a nuisance. My 225 is getting recabled as the original ones split, so if I send them back I'm left with no headphones and TBH I just don't want to miss a day without my PS1000! So... having done a search I've found a few solutions: rod locks, nail varnish and blu-tack. If there are any others... I've missed them.
I'd rather not start drilling holes or having to send them to get recabled+rod locked so any feedback on the other two solutions would be very helpful, especially if a long term solution is available.
Thanks!
