Hi,

My dog ate the buds and the nozzles clean off. Shure's minimum service charge is $145.00. Does anyone have any experience with replacing the nozzles? I found a price today for new 530's for $239.00. I'm a little hesitant to send them in for repair as a result. Thanks, Chris.

You can have them turned into customs for about the same as the repair charge. If I had broken 530's, that's exactly what I'd do with them. Do you know the drivers are still good?

just save up and send it to shure. If your dog did the damage, I would worry about the plastic and debris entering the drivers.

get them reshell-ed into customs.
