Author Topic: Fixing cheap headphones.  (Read 670 times)

I'm to stubborn to buy a new pair so shaddup.

So, The sound issue is that the bass in my right earphone comes in way too harsh and has this fluttering sound to it. I removed all the material blocking the earphone and am currently looking at it, and I don't see anything that looks suspicious, but I've never done this before. There is this clear plastic stuff in it that buy just now sticking a screwdriver in it and pulling it out has suddenly fixed the sound, but I'm not sure if I should do something before I screw and glue* this thing back together. Any ideas?
Also, The only way you can tell there is a problem is by listening to quieter things, which annoys me.

*Hey, That rhymes!

Don't do anything to the wires if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Speaking from experience and just telling you so you don't make a terrible mistake. Never worked with the actual earpieces, sorry.

I read a but about audio equipment, PNP Transistors and such, but there are only two wires that go into the actual earpiece and the rest is made up on the spot (Bass is just made by using a different type of speaker right?). The speaker it'self looks like a giant bass piece in the center and the rest of the audio is created around the circumference of the actual speaker.
