In around 30 years of usage I replaced the earpads of my AKG just one time and the cable and jack a few times too. The earpads needed several replacements too, but I waited and ordered them, when I was working for an audio company, so I got them for the very, very cheap prime cost, instead of the much, much too expensive retail price. However, it's important to get headphones, for which spare parts are available for a few decades. It's bad enough that repairing several old synth is nearly impossible. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
