When I was young (say mid 80's) I had a DT 48 A with the round grey earpads.
Amazing sound, but traded it for a Sennheiser 414 or so, bad trade.
 
For 4 months now I got a 1967 DT48S (25 Ohm). Amazing, I got that sound back.!!
I got myself a new pair of oval earpads for it.
 
My DT48S got on the attic of the previous owner for about 20 years at least.
Nevertheless it sounds amzing, no flaws I think.
 
But still...
I would like to clean the drivers.
 
How hard is this job ?
I opened the can and saw the stamp of 1967.
 
After that I closed it again.
 
I do a lot of repair of vintage audio electronics.
I got a scope etc.
 
But opening these drivers made me stop.
First ask around before f&cking it all up.
 
Who has experience ?
Is it that difficult ?
