Did you just drill a little hole for the jack? HTF did you run cable from one side to the other? They're tiny. |
I have like four pairs of them still. This was by far the rattiest pair - a bit scratched, disintegrated pads & the cable had split...after too many years on the road without ever failing, was in dire need of some TLC.
To be honest I still swear by them, or alternatively my custom moulded IEMS depending on application.
M6 x 0.5 tap in the exisiting hole, then screw a 3.5mm socket with a 4.5mm long thread in and it sits flush. Nothing major, and looks way better than having a nut on the outside for the socket.
Replacing the cable across the headband is fiddly but certainly easier than say, replacing a 1200 tonearm wire.
The coiled cable drives me nuts most of the time, but it can be useful on occasion so kept the cable and put a 3.5mm at the other end too so can switch between coiled and straight.
