You could also use a small cable tie (zip tie). That would add friction and still allow adjustment.

Has anyone tried the replacement Porta Pro speakers available on eBay? They look okay, and if they sound the same it could be a cheap way to make a pair of KSC 35's

Sprota Pro headphones speakers are black like KSC 35's and they are cheaper than Porta Pros. Ill have to look into the replacement speakers on eBay.

Yep that's them!

Yes although the KSC 35's are black, I think they have the same driver as the Porta Pro. I have tried fitting the Porta Pro speakers into the KSC 75 clips, and this is my favourite combination. The problem is you can't seem to buy the clips separately, so you have to interchange. I wonder if anyone knows of a really cheap set of earphones that use compatible KSC 75 clips?

Yes: they are called ksc75's

I think they're a lot cheaper in the U.S. compared to U.K

I have a spare set that I don't need. PM me if you're interested.

Thanks for your kind offer Willbur, but I already have three sets of KSC 75's all with different mods and another pair with porta pro drivers . I am still trying to find the "perfect " solution

 

[Willber]

Righto, no problem.

True. I'm in Canada, and a local retailer often sells them for $18CAD (ie $14US).

I have a spare set that I don't need. PM me if you're interested.

Now that's the head-fi spirit! Kudos.

Since generous head-fi'ers are making offers, I'm on the look out for a modified set of KSC75s. Must be recabled. PM me if you have a pair. Not looking for a freebie, will pay. Thanks!

There doesn't seem to be any box-store retailers in Canada that carry the SportaPros though!

Sadly that is true. The cheapest I found them was on ebay.

I use these in work attached to a parts express head band. Attach it to my ibasso dx80 and perfect. Bargain
