Grado SR60 repair

    Does anyone know a place that repairs headphones? I'm sure that its just a wire that has come loose causing the sound to cut out in the right ear, its just that these headphones seem pretty tough to open and I wouldn't be able to resolder the connection myself.

    Is it the jack or something in the earpiece that has come loose? The jack is easy enough to replace as it's low risk but requires 3 tiny parts to be soldered but in the earpiece it's probably only a single solder but you'd need to do it right. I think grado do repairs themselves but since you'd be shipping them to New York it'll probably work out prohibitively expensive but it might be no harm just to check anyway.

    If you were to try soldering yourself and not have past experience I'd practice replacing a headphone jack cable on a cheap or broken pair so at least you'd have an idea what to do. I think if you can solder 3 tiny wires you should be able to solder a single larger connection. Have a look here: http://gilmore2.chem.northwestern.edu/projects/showproj.php?file=grado_prj.htm
