I’m thinking of doing a DIY repair of my headphone driver which is damaged due to age. The drivers are on their way.

May I know which type of glue is suitable for gluing the new driver in place after I removed the old one?

Thx.

May I ask what the headphones are, what the driver is, and how old they are?

Thanks

Goldring DR-150. 40mm 32 ohm. Typical ones. Not original of course. Damaged because uneven sound and when I ran the frequency sweep it crackles and beeps at certain frequency.

i am an adult. Lol.

Loctite is typically easy to work with; any of their multipurpose products should work, such as the Go2Glue, should be sufficient.

Was just about to reply suggesting Go2Glue.
I'm not completely familiar with this specific headphone however depending on the mounting and as long as you are careful I often use hot glue if I need more physical substance rather than just to stick something to something else.

Ok. Will try some temporary measures first before I cement it.

Always a big fan of Goop.

Workable in about 30min, but overnight sticks anything to anything, and 100% removable.

Huge con is that it's thick and sticky, and starts to skin very quickly within 5 minutes.
