Hey guys,
A friend of mine who's based overseas recently passed his Senny HD700 over to me to get his headband pad replaced.
I went ahead and ordered the headband pad without realising that is extremely difficult to take the headband apart to replace the pad.
So once the headband pad arrived I took it to the local head-fi store and get it replaced, which they did but broke the left side of the headband's adjustment system in the process (the left side of the headphone slides out without locking.)
I've asked them to sort it out for me and they responded that they have sent it back to the local Sennheiser distributor and pretty much the only option is to replace the entire headband, which the store is not willing to take up the cost.
The entire replacement is pretty costly so since the only option is to incur cost and get it replaced, I'm thinking if there's anyway to attempt some repair myself.
I've scoured the internet for some guides, like video or images but couldn't find anything about taking apart the HD 700's headband, and I'm hoping some of you here could help show me how to take it apart and fix the damn thing.
In any case, many thanks in advance.
