Mackie 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Wow! Hats off to U adhoc for the bravery in this mod job and the comprehensive step-by-step procedures ...........and a little salute to your stupidity resulting in a "Purple heart". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mackie 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Btw, I think this thread ought to replace "DT880 cord change chronicle" on the stickies, what say U your highness and fellow mods? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rameish 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Good Idea Mack - I'm all for fewer threads so that went people do a search they get the most relevant results. Adhoc, I give you a Silver Star instead of a Purple Heart (mainly for the injury). You have a very "clean" work station BTW. I still would have prefered a Y cord BTW but Silver Star nevertheless.

adhoc 0 Report post Posted July 30, 2003 y-cord was considered, but too messy IMO for me. also, the extra weight would be quite noticeable. but still, i'm seriously considering a y-cord change for other headphones.. if only i could get my hands on some mogami 3106.. not avail in s'pore.. oh and thank you mackie and rameish for the awards. it's really really really easy to get distracted and do stupid things while soldering. trust me! gerG from head-fi was just telling me how he would burn his face while wiping sweat off it while holding his iron and wallijonn from head-fi also mentioned that he's had hot solder splatter into his eyes before.. now THAT must hurt.

I think a well lighted (white light) table that the legs can rest under and a soldering iron holder would be much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
