Hi, this is my first post/thread. Hope it's readable and not in the wrong place.
Recently bought a Superlux HD330 from ebay, but despite beeing my first full sized headphones I was not able to actually apreciate it's sound. It came with a broken cable, was like with bad contact.
After seeing a bunch of customized headphones here at head-fi and thinking about it, decided to try and recable it, with a new 3.5mm jack (also bought from ebay) and some cable I had laying around the house.
Since the idea and courage came from here and I can't even edit the photos on my profile, thought about posting some pictures of the procedure and the final thing. Can't say this is a "how to" cause it's missing some pics.
Taking the headphone appart:

And quite a small jack for it:

All measured correctly:

I know it's not much of a beautiful and polished work, but at least it's functional. That's what I was looking for...
Can someone help me getting the pictures on post? the "Insert Image" button opens a yellow box that says "Please Wait" and then the box just disappears. What's supposed to happen?
