Yea, just let’s open the driver and see how it is inside. If there is mold, can we clean it? If the diaphragm is bad, I can help you make a pair of new diaphragms. First, you want to unsolder all the wires. Unscrew all the screws and it’s open. Please be very careful with the dust cover as it’s very fragile. Take some pictures and let’s see how bad it is.

Hi plaurids, Fixing the headphones, if the membrane is still in good condition, isn't that difficult. If you are handy enough, I can guide you. Wachara C.

Very nice! How do you stretch the diaphragm by hand? Do you have a scale or something to help you tension each side of the diaphragm to the same tension?

Do you have other headphones to test and confirm that the issue is really from the amp?

The guy certainly didn’t know and understand what he had done - what a pity!

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday, Joachim.

I've been searching for some DN2540 to fix my KGSSHV Carbon but can't find them anywhere? Do you guys know of anywhere I can get them? Or can I substitute them with the small current version in TO-92 package?

Have you ever thought of using fiberglass or carbon fiber as the mesh holder?

Do you hand solder or use hot air to solder the SMD components?

Happy birthday!!!

That's such a neat idea. Can you show us the bottom side how you hard wired them together?

Very nice! Congrats, @jamesmking!

Sorry, you’re wrong. The case is made by one of my DIY friends here in Thailand. It’s teakwood, and I spray the top aluminum cover with black paint. The amp inside is KGST.

@purkcame to visit me today. I showed him all of my DIY headphones. He seemed to like my Omega clone the most.

Beautiful work!

Very interesting! I am very curious to learn about your coating. Where do you buy it from?

Maybe he was referring to the DIY headphones he was testing.

Congratulations Kerry! It’s about time! Wishing you a big success.

I only wish I can understand what you are making.

I’ll buy one now too.

Happy birthday, Joachim!

I love those purple color wood stripes. Are those Purpleheart?

Call it JoaMatron! 😄

Good eyes!
