Headphone problem , by jusdeep on Jan 10, 2015 14:01:48 GMT 1, Hi, very off topic but does anyone have any experience of getting their headphone cables mended or rewired to a higher specification in the UK? I have a pair of Shure SE530 PTH's that cost a pretty penny, (are out or warranty) and I'd rather not ditch them if it is a simple solve.
As far as I can guess it's probably a simple re-solder of a faulty connection. One ear started losing volume and went dead within a few hours, before that no distortion or other signs and they have always been kept safe in their box when not in use.
The main problem with these are they are fixed at the earbud and would have to be carefully unpieced and while that's being done could be upgraded. I've bought a pair of SoundMAGIC E10S's in the meantime but seems a waste to just bin these.
Thanks, any help or advice appreciated

Headphone problem , by jusdeep on Jan 10, 2015 15:13:18 GMT 1, Unfortunately the earbuds are fixed on this model, (later models have removable cables) and by looking at the quick fix videos online it looks a bit more tricky soldering than my basic capability. No question about throwing them away, these cost more than most people spend on a hi-fi system.

Had a pair of on ear Grados , not the best looking of headphones but an amazing sound.
Just got a pair of Sennheiser HD598, which I would say are a better sound than the Grados
