Hey all - I have been lurking for a few weeks now since I got my first ipod. I wanted to see if some of you could help me.
I bought a pair of Sony MDR-EX71SLs about 2 years ago. For 2 years I have been putting them back into an Altoids tin when I was finished with them. The one time I didn't I found my cat chewing through the cord and apparently I had the non disentigrating cord as well!
I chopped the cord from an old set of headphones. I took apart the EX71SL 'buds' and soldered the new cord on the left driver. Our new baby started crying and I went to check on her. When I came back I found that the cat had swiped the right driver off into the carpet and I cannot find it.
I have read that some of you snacthed the cord out of your MDR-EX51LP/EX71SLs or your cord disentigrated.
Is there anyone here that would be willing to donate the drivers (or a driver) from an old set to me? I have the casing I just need the driver.
We have a new baby and the budget is a little tight. I know I can buy a new pair inexpensively, but I have already fixed one driver and I kinda wanted to finish the project plus diapers, wipes, and the cost of gas is really bumming me out right now.
Thanks for your help.
