Yes, I would like to know how to do this. It seems for me that over the years the volume control is wearing out... if I turn the wheel to max volume then the balance is off, so I have to back it off a little bit and sometimes rock it back and forth. Very annoying.

If you do amp above 15mW you will have no choice. THIS IS NOT AFFECTED BY THE MOD. My computer put out a healthy 20+mW whereas (typically soundblaster) most only do 10-15mW so you will not have any problems. If your volume control is crackling and puts out in one ear only till you mess with the volume control for a while, you have probably burnt it. Bypass is easy. Your MIC on off still works.[/edit]
