Anker Q30 not charging properly. Is a replacement battery available?
My Anker Q30 is not charging properly. No matter how long I charge it, when I turn it on I get the message "Battery low" and it is less than a year old. Is there some way to replace the battery, or will it be easier sending it to Anker for a fix? I think it should still be under warranty.- Oluvs Buddy

FiiO Hybrid IEMs Discussion & Impressions Thread
Quote FiiO really dropped the ball on this one. Mine developed the same problem and the dealer said I had to return the whole package to get it fixed, so the cable is still languishing around.

I need a mod for the AKG K371 terrible microphonics.
I am experiencing terrible microphonics with the AKG K371. When I wear a shirt the cable rubs against the collar too much. I think I need something like a right angled mini XLR male to mini XLR female connector, some other jig which turns the cable slighlty forward away from my collars. I've...- Oluvs Buddy

Softer thicker earpads required for Beyerdynamic DT-250.
I need some earpads to go with the DT-250. Their clamp force is to high and I need thicker softer earpads which will push the drivers farther away from my ears. It will be good if they are also larger which means less pressure and more comfort. What third party earpads should I be looking at...- Oluvs Buddy

DIY Cable Questions and Comments Thread
Are there any videos showing how connectors are soldered to the cables, and wiring diagrams? I suspect that soldering cables to MMCX, 0.78mm and all the other connector types is a quite fiddly process, delicate error prone process.- Oluvs Buddy

It is not the earphone jack. It also gets disconnected in pavucontrol. That shouldn't happen unless the disconnection has been continued for a number of seconds. The same fault also occurs on the balanced connection.- Oluvs Buddy
