- Experiencing that common problem of the sound cutting out and crackling on one or both sides? Do you frequently have to wiggle the connectors to sort the problem? This clip will show you how to permanently fix the problem using a few simple tools and a bit of common sense
:) this encouraged me to fix it once and for all and I believe I have found the root cause of the issue: the two springs are not symmetrical, there both coiled the same and placed side by side. This means that when you plug the fork connector, the rightmost contact is done by the point pushing two loops of coil to the right copper barrel, whereas the left point pushes on only one loop on its barrel - making it quite a looser connexion.
You were taking me on a journey inside our beloved sennheisers🥰🥰🥰
This seems to be the Achilles' heel of the Senhizer hd 25 headphones
it needs some warm up guys dont get too excited. best fix vid ever.
Just did this successfully, cheers for the video! to anyone attempting it, when adjusting the springs I wasn´t able to find a small enough screwdriver to attempt it with confidence....i found a sim card key to be about the right size to get into that small hole , best of luck!
fascinating video. I've had these headphones forever and the sound is great. I've had this same problem for years already. Everyone I know who uses these, have had the same problem. That's at least 50 people. I never thought of the problem being uneven springs! I specifically bought them because you could replace the cable, unlike Sony's that use a much thinner cable. Thanks so much for this video. They're working for the moment.
This is the most British repair I’ve seen in a while. Great fun
Thanks for the video, gives me a bit more confidence in trying this fix. Have a set of HD25+ I bought in 2019 where the connector had been redesigned from the earlier models, so was hoping this wouldn't be an issue but here we are.
Thank you! Just reanimated my second of a pair of HD25 II 🙏
I've killed an old pair doing this and had to try it on the new pair today.
Thanks Dave
Ok guys so I found a solution. It seems the right channel is always the one at fault. I have two sets and just picked up a third set because I love the headphones and the third set was a steal at $25 because of the right channel as well. So I took all three apart and noticed that the positive side on all three of the right side cups had the positive wire just laying on top of the thin aluminium wire that connects to the driver. I am assuming because people keep pulling the wire out and try to reset the clapping that eventually it breaks the connection that was flimsy at the very beginning. I retouched it with some solder and now I have three pairs of cans that work phenomenal! It didn’t need much solder just enough to retouch it. I have put in all headphones and manually wiggled the cable to see if they would disconnect and they didn’t. Seems like the fix to this problem.
Nice
Thanks heaps!
cheers mate!
I haven't done the operation yet. I need to soon. Been using the backup Sony's and they're not hitting the mark
amazing! =)
right ear stopped working on my headphones.
28 minutes?? yeesh, this better fix the problem...
I tried this fix, it seemed to work and then a few weeks later the same problem arose again. Next time I dismantled the earpieces I ripped the tiny wires... headset was only 3 years old with non-professional use. So 👎👎 for Sennheiser and 140€ down the drain.
