Hello fellow HE'6 ers'!!!
I am very new to this forum and just got a chance to listen to my pair of (second hand but pristine) HE'6's last night thru my vintage Akai 1175 receiver (thank to Oregonian and other vintage headfiers) and the sound WAS absolutely incredible!!!!! Bass was stunning and did not bleed into ANY other part of crystal clear frequency range!!! -How is that possible with a single driver??? But anyway, I say WAS because the right driver went DEAD only about an hour into session!!!! I was only playing at moderately loud levels (maybe 95-100 DB peaks) and (now I am sick over this)...... Anybody have an "inside track" with Hifiman (or other shop I can contact) for quick repair??? I really want to take a look to see if just bad solder joint or something... Is this difficult??
