  1. Thanks Chris, Yeah, no big deal to breakdown the cans to get at the end wire end so that I could re-sleeve the cable. It wouldn't have much meat to hold onto. The section coming out of the split is a reinforced tube about 1/2" long. That seems to have broken for the other side. I feel that there maybe a twist point there. You can see the little threads on the other side of the heatshrink as well to the left. I guess that I could try to undo the cable, cut off all that tubing and then try to build up a new sleeve - maybe a small stiff tube - and then heat shrink on top.. and yeah - sad about customer service - gave them a pick and the whole story.. cheers
  2. I have had my beloved ATH-L3000 for many years now. It has developed a frayed cable around the split: I am seeking advice as to possible next steps. Right now, it is not causing any performance issue (has not broken connection). As a safety measure, I have wrapped the entire junction with some blue painters tape to hold it all in place - not ideal. Questions: Is a replacement original cable (NOS) available? - checked with AT - they had no real response - said send it in.. Try to repair the junction? - not much room to work and secure. Is a compatible replacement available (equal quality)? Possible third party cable replacement recommendation? Or play in the DIY cable gallery. I have not opened the headphones at this point, but I have no issue conducting the re-cabling myself if needed. But I wanted to reach out for any advice first. Cheers, Mikey
