ahahaha, that is the worst when you think you can fix something, but there is way to many parts for what u know what to do with. good luck man.

The force is not strong with these ones.

Man, when I opened them up and the srpings poped out at me. I could so feel the Japanese laughing at me going "haha, take that white boy"

^hahahahaha! so true!

i did the same thing...
the right side wont work on mine.. i opened them up once, but thankfully i was able to put them back together...

id rather have headphones with one working side rather than a pile of plastic, springs and wires.. heh

Séguin · #9 (**permalink**) May 31, 04

they're back together and work fine... there's just no springs on one side, I don't notice a difference either.

hee hee, i can take em apart and fix them.

u can get new parts from able electronics.

my hd280s are holding up nicely.. although i'm getting the cracked on the inner side of the head band thing that some people have reported.. only cuz i dropped them alot by accident :/ .. some black electrical tape should do.. but everything else is nice and sturdy

I think I'm gonna go with the Technics DJ-1200 ones next.

dont even bother they suck, stick with the 700's my friends has the dj12's and he uses my headphones all the time his dont go loud enough.

Séguin · #14 (**permalink**) Jun 01, 04

really? I've heard good things about them.

and there's a Poineer pair that go louder. it also has a mono/stereo switch on one of the ear pieces. Which in my eyes is a major sketch point.

I wish Sony made like a better verison of these that are made from metal or stoger plastic. I'd gladly pay $200 more for a metal version of the 700s that'll last alot longer.

Séguin · #16 (**permalink**) Jun 01, 04

DJ Deeb: I've said that over and over again. They're not impressing anyone with going cheap on it.

Akeel · #17 (**permalink**) Jun 01, 04

the sony 700's would be great if they didnt have that design flaw...only thing holding em back.

As for the technics headphones there's two models ones silver, ones black...other then that the silver pair comes with a coiled cord.

they are actually louder then the sony 700's but if you have big ears (like me) their really uncomfortable.

the pioneer's 1000's are some of the loudest headphones u can get....if thats a good thing or not...is up to you.

ya me ears are kinda big :(

all the better to mix with...you small ear people are at a disadvantage.

stringbeans · #20 (**permalink**) Jun 01, 04

i think every brand of headphone out there has some sort of a design flaw... senns, sony, and pioneer

Séguin · #21 (**permalink**) Jun 01, 04

the pioneer is the mono/stereo switch... just watch :p
