I'd say leave it, if it doesn't affect the sound. I've broken couple of those(on purpose) and it is really easy to break if you bend it.

I got the Pro80 yesterday - needed some closed cans for the bedroom, my wife doesn't like the sound from my HD600 bleeding all over the place...
These are very nice for classical music. To me they sound pretty neutral, with just a nudge forward at the upper mids. Woodwinds sound especially sweet.
For closed cans they have a very good soundstage - not close to HD600 quality but a great compromise for the price. The sonic image feels spacious enough.
Oh, and the case is absolutely badass. I think I'll remove the foam and use it to carry some travel gear (e.g. HD600 + Vali amp) when I'm on the road...

seems like the tip of my jack bent from the weight of the coiled cable...should i try to bend it back or leave it?
IMO, buy another jack and try to resolder it, it's pretty simple, there're tons of videos on youtube.
I bet this bending can damage your source output.

Before you take anything apart, try straightening it out with some pliers... I've done this to many a too-forcefully-yanked jack without any difficulty or damage.

If the metal is loose then it is about to break off, you don't want that tip breaking off in the source.
Sounds like a good excuse to mod your headphone for a removable cable

What sound effect did you get from the HM5 pads on the hsr-1000's?

Hi all !
out of curiosity I bought Gemini DJ HSR-1000 and I must say I am really impressed, I mean for that price? (45usd) very good indeed
and they handle bass nicely (even better then HFI580 if you ask me) nice phones for hip hop and electronic music, but this much bass is way too much for other genres, especially when vocals are involved, so I tried srh840 pads that I had and although sound improved in some departments and bass become more acceptable, but still I dont like how it sounds in the end compared to original pads
so as far as I remember HM5 velor pads are advised for pairing, but if there are some other pads that you could advise I would be grateful
thanx !

HM5 pads will tame the bass. What the hell is your source and what are you comparing it to to say these have "too much bass". Sure that is their sound signature, neutral with a bass bump, but I wouldn't at all call them overly bassy.
