Hello there,
I recently acquired a set of Sennheiser HD600, which came with an 1/8 to 1/4 gold-plated adapter. The problem with this adaptater is that it had solid brass black cuff that prevents from plugging other 1/8 connectors than that of the HD600. I wanted to use it with my Grado, so I decided to shorten the cuff.
I clutched the adapter in a column drill, without forgetting to protect it with tape. Then I used a saw to cut the biggest part of the cuff, and finished with a file and sandpaper. Here is what I ended up with :
I'm sure there are HD600 owners here that are talented at metal turning or are able to sculpt this part. Why not try and show us what you can do? Pimp your adapters!
