Soldering of the jack.
I love Neutrik, for a beginner like myself it is very easy to work with
2 blue wires for the signal, 2 white wires for the ground
Phase 2 done!
Opening up of the headphones.
I follow a tutorial i saw on the net, together with my loyal hair dryer reach my goal!
quite easy actualy, 1 min on each can.
i cleaned the remaining glue and decided to remove the SR80e inscription.
Once again with the haire dryer i tried to melt the glue, ..., the grill melted!!!!
i will have to change it!
No big deal
Phase 3 done!
Finding Left / Right
very easy:
the new cables are ready to be soldered to the Grado...
Soldering the new cable.
straight forward, melting the soldering paste, removing original wire and place the new.
Easy, unless if you have Huuuge finger as i do !!!
At this point a decided to go for the hole punching mod...
As you may notice, it is not possible on the SR80e.
There is 2 holes near the solders, and the top part is not punchable...
Phase 4 done!
the remaining tasks were quite easy, i found a potential grill ( the one i used to prevent my cat jumping for the balcony!!!).
Glue, replacing the 2 parts of the headphones together and...
... TAAA DAAAA
took me 2 hours and i had a lot of fun!!!
