I just took apart my Koss A130s to fix the rattling issue with the drivers. It was a very easy fix but I'm sure that many others, like myself, are weary about taking apart their headphones if they've never done it before. I took pictures showing how I did the fix in case others are interested in how to do it without breaking them
If anybody sees ways to improve upon my method or has ideas for other things that could be done to improve their sound then feel free to chime in.
Headphone cup removed from headband and $1.59 sticky-tak
Remove Ear Cup
Remove four screws
Carefully pull apart the can. You don't want to pull the wiring off of the driver.
Slide the wiring "harness" out of its nook and then carefully move the foam surrounding the driver out of the way
You can see how poor the fit is between the driver and its "slot"
Apply a very small amount of sticky-tak to stop the rattle
