Well, K1000 can be very temperamental in this department - and are temperature sensitive. In cold weather ( or churches I usualy record in and are unfortunately always cold ) they rattle and resonate more than in more pleasent conditions. Still - checking for any loose screws, particularly those two at the bottom of the earpiece holding together grids clamp and plastic piece covering the cable exit, is always a good idea.
Isn't it the same cause as that of the already discussed bass rattle? If you haven't read about it yet, it is caused by the disintegration of a foam disc that fulfills a damping duty. Just a thought...
Also, make sure all the screws are tight. I have experienced a similar phenomenon a few years ago and it was caused by a loose screw, one of the four that help fix the leather headband against the plastic parts that the temple pads are attached to. You must "open the wings" of the k1000 to be able to see the screws.
