Got this spinning on the turntable behind me. We're on track 3, 'Щит и меч (Shield and Sword),' at the moment.

I don't know. I tried to remove as much flux as I could, I wiped that spot down and I sprayed it with electronics cleaner and it still shorts out. It's not just the left channel, either. The right channel is doing the same. In any case, I removed the resistors and cleaned the through-holes, and after I removed the resistors from the circuit the shorting ceased. EDIT: (Blow the picture up, it's large)

Hello, I'm new here. I recently acquired a nice looking (and complete) pair of Realistic HP-100s (re-badged Stax SR-3, from what I understand), and upon cracking open the energizer I'm finding things aren't quite as nice as they would seem. When I'd first begun to listen to them, the left channel was nearly dead and the right channel was quiet. I quickly discovered the issue with that, this 3.3ohm ptc that had, at some point, swollen to the point of beginning to crack: The cracked one was registering 265 ohms. No wonder one side was nearly dead! So, I purchased some replacements from Mouser. 3.3ohm ptc, just like the schematic called for. I soldered them into place, and as I begun to ease the volume knob up, I started to smell burning. Turns out this was happening: Apologies for it being blurry, but it started to arc across points C1 and 3 on this top circuit board. Naturally, I removed the headphones the first time this happened. This is a screenshot of the video I took to recreate the issue, and there was nothing hooked to the headphone output when I took this.
