1 channel dead on Grado PS1000!!!
Hi guys, hope someone can help.
I've lost the one (right) channel on my Grados and I'm 99.9% certain it is a broken solder joint on the driver (why they designed them that the cup can rotate 360 degrees nobody knows - I often find the cable all wound up and knew it would be only a matter of time before the cable works itself loose!!!)
I started taking it apart, took the foam pad off and started wiggling the driver out of the metal case, but it won't go any further than a few mm and am cautios not to break anything- the wooden driver housing seems particularly brittle! I cannot find any instructions on the Internet to disassemble the driver - has anyone done this?
As a last resort, is there anyone you can recommend who offers a repair/ recabling service in the UK?
PS. Yes, they are out of warranty.
Many thanks Chivas
