JoesGE.com is a pretty cool place (depending who you talk to it might be more than pretty cool. But hey, I'm just writing this down so that it says something down here, because that's more professional right?) and if you're still reading along at this point you might as well sit down and grab some popcorn because this is about to trail on about how we are this premiere repair service located in Washington State North of Seattle in basically the "Armpit of the US" near Mt Baker (Mt Baker has the world record for most snowfall at 1,140 inches in a season). Even though it can smell bad around here we love the fresh air and being near the post office and in a quiet sleepy mountain town certainly gives us much closer access to Team Turtle and Team Beaver (Watch our "Who, what, when and where is JoesGE?" video if you don't get the reference).
All this to basically say that we are all addicted to coffee and stay in the warehouse for ridiculously long hours in order to keep up with the demands of the youth for these two-sided head audio devices and speakers that float when you throw them in the ocean or in your bathtub to test if they actually float. On top of that, we do like it when less stuff ends up in landfills so we hoard everything on shelves with wheels so that we pollute less, it just sits in our warehouse losing molecules slowly over time degrading to become smaller and smaller.
If you are still reading at this point you deserve an award, or a high five, or something because you must either be the most patient person on the planet, or you read blogs frequently. And if the latter is the case, then this whole thing must seem pretty short so let's keep going.
We do some really interesting things here at JoesGE which are frequently documented in our sometimes weekly sometimes never vlogs.
Also, if you are wondering how we keep up with the demands of the people so well, its because 90% of the people that work here are all Russian around getting things done most of the time. Yes, that was a pun, you are welcome. We hope you have a pun-filled day, because who couldn't use a few laughs? - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

Damn, I came too late for this! May I ask the reason you're not repairing these anymore??
Holy cow. Now I understand why the market is saturated with the "zipper" style replacement bands... I'm lucky I'm good with a soldering iron...
Same thing here. Just changed the headband of my friends pair QC 35 I
Hey I'm also great with a soldering iron over 25 years exp, but this is one job I really can't be bothered doing and it's not even the soldering. Very tedious fiddly job to replace something perishable. Maybe I do it if there's another lockdown.
Bose: When the headband is fully damaged, whey must buy a new one Bose headphones.
Clever people: googles how to change headband without velcro.
Man’s rocking the Dwight Schrute watch. Awesome vid. Hopefully I can fix my own someday.
Difficulty level 95/100 😂 I regret now not having bought the Velcro pad 😔
😂
I changed the headband on my AudioTechnica ATH M50x once. Well... I had to buy Nappa leather and sew the headband myself. It took me hours!
That being said, I am considering doing the same for the QC35. The result is just that good.
Real leather is just much much more durable and super nice to the touch.
Just did this for my O.G. Gen-one Bose QC35's. Even fixed my broken switch in them. 💪🏾💪🏾 Thanks Jose!

Many thanks. Wonderfully complicated process! Can you put one out to replace a headband for a QC 3? Yeah, they are still in use!
Lol it is expert level to change the replacement. I regret buying the replacement. I wont change it by myself🤣
I buy the zipper one now 😷
😂
Hi, I was wondering if this would work on the Soundlink around ear headphones?
Great guide. Thank you! I used the clear plastic strip to pull the wire through though, by taping the wire to the plastik and pulling it through. :)

Hey Joe, is it possible to find the ribbon on the cup below the ear cushions, which seems like a plastic ribbon
Oh boy !! This is complicated.
Nice watch between

Hi guys, Thanks for the video, it helped a lot to understands the steps I need to follow. . I have a somewhat similar problem in that I broke the small swivel/hinge on the right side. There is no way I can unsolder and resolder so many small cables without a catastrophy, so I plan to cut the cable inside the headband, change the swivel and then use no solder thermoretactable connectors to relink both headphones. Dirtier but at least feasible for me. AWG26 and up thermoretractable connector are easy to find, smaller not so much. Therefore my question, do you know the gauge of the 14 or so small cables you unsolder then resolder in the video?
I wouldn't recommend that since the wires are super small. You can send them in for repair. www.joesge.com/pages/repair-service-bose
Could you guys do a video on replacing the right inside panel on the Studio 3s?
Thanks for the comment. We are working on producing the video you have requested. Stay tuned, like and subscribe to the channel:)

Hi Joe, this video really helped me a lot, I had no idea how to remove the clips on the shell, after watching this I removed it and installed the new headband successfully. The thing is when I tried to attach all the wires back to the soldered points and turn on the headphone, there’s some warning voice , I think I have attached some of them to the wrong location, could you please just post a clear photo for all the points? thanks bro.
Thank you for the comment. Unfortunately, we are unable to post photos in the comments. Please contact email: support@joesge.com for wiring schematics.

Fantastic video! Would it be possible to share a link to the photo showing the wires? Thank you!

Joe's Gaming & Electronics thank you will do
Where can buy new original head band??
Pls send me the link
Can You Please direct me to where the calling Microphone is located, I can't find it, it was not functional due to my headphones falling while being used by me for some awkward unexplainable reason.
I wish Bose had place in a plastic connector for the wire instead of soldering it for easy headband replacement and or other repair measures...
Hey! i was wondering. Could i use Studio beats 2.0 WIRED parts for my Studio beats WIRELESS headphones?? mainly need hinge, inner pannel and Headband! Thanks!!
Thanks for the comment. Not all parts will be compatible. You can use the hinges, headband, and right inside panel. The left inside panel will not fit the studio 2 wireless. Hope this helps.
-David P
@@Joesge thanks very much!! helps a lot.
Спасибо. Удачи.
👍
Would this replacement headband work on my Soundlink Around-Ear 2 (soundlink AE2)?
Unfortunately they would not fit.
Hello. Do you have a video on repair for the volume button?
We don't currently have a video for that, but we get one in the works for ya
Here is a listing to the part: rb.gy/j6as5m
@@Joesge thank you so much! My button broke about a year ago and just realised that I can have that repaired. I will get the part soon. I hope I don't have to take apart the headset too much to get to the buttons.
Edit, I should specify the rubber part is broken. The underlying circuit is in good condition as far as I CAn tell.
weeeeell...I guess I'll just gonna buy some new headphones then :-D
You can totally get them repaired. Is your headband broken. Please DM us on instagram @joesge or email us support@joesge.com
Heyy, i have the qc 45 ll and the noise cancellation isnt working as it used too (it seems to be stuck on low noise cancelling) I tried everything popping the ear pads back on, properly, software update, reboots... idkklk what to do !! Please help
Hello, thanks for commenting. Please email us at support@joesge.com with your question. We will be able to better assist you there. - JoesGE
If the padding is not genuine from Bose its not not worth killing the headphones. I would stick only with ear pads from Bose. If that was just screws to disassemble it would fine but soldering,, its not for me 😆
Is it possible to remove bluetooth module/power of bluetooth from QuietComfort 35/45 ?
For the QC35 yes. Im not sure if you can on the QC45
@@Joesge Would you show how ?
what size phillips sscrewdriver?
www.joesge.com/products/beats-by-dre-screwdriver-tool-t5-t2-philips-flat-head-repair-tools?variant=7905323024430

Oh god, i'm better off buying the zipper one :D
Very good guide 👍
Glad it was helpful!
wow.. this really scares me.. the soldering part especially
Do you know the cause for the headband getting ripped. Like it's not like my hair is sharp or anything?
😂 over time the headbands just begin to get wear and tear.
cool video but please tone down with the music
hahaahahah but youve been in space!!!!!
Joe bro can u change mine

its soo hardddd and i live in turkey i wish i could send my earphones :(
We do offer world wide repair but do not cover the shipping cost.
Great design from Bose 😂
😂
Was looking forward to purchasing the headband replacement from use but your shipping cost is a joke, $25 US for the part not bad, but $100 US to ship no thanks
I'm not sure how you were quoted $100 for shipping, but that is severely incorrect. Make sure that you haven't chose an overnight shipment.
Yeah, I've left the head band, this is too complicated
It is a process haha
