Update, bump, whatever..? i would too??, is the Uk that behind the times? My 530s are quite happpily rotting away in the pouch, in a drawer. However the situation aint sitting quite as happily with said owner.. Must add that cables are split (thats the "rotting" word earlier) thanks for that Shure, this is after very little driver and overall usage in three years, thats the only reason i`m even considering investing more cash in to them, i`m wide open to any reasonable answers really, any feedback would be good as the posts above me obviously not had many hits. Thanks in advance..
