Mine need doing too. I also am in the UK.
I didn't compare the CD3000 with real leather ear pads against CD3000 with plastic replacement ear pads, nor with original pleather ear pads. I'll try to compare them when I have some free time.
What I can say right now is that real leather ear pads are comfortable and much softer that the plastic replacement ear pads you can find on ebay, but you can wear both of them for long hours without any problem. And real leather ear pads seem to be as much as soft as the original ear pads.
Regarding the improvement of bass, I need to check, I wouldn't say something wrong to you.
Shouldn't be too hard to do. Put SMA Connectors on mine about fifteen years ago.Does anyone have their cd3k changed into balanced cable? I'm looking to get mine done, preferably similar to z1r - detachable cable. I will greatly appreciate any recommendation for anyone who can do this mod.
hi, I need some instructions about how to dismanteling the CD3000. I hope anybody could help me because I don't know how to start with. Thanks in advance.
Well you need to disassemble the entire cup to look at the driver, which is what I tried to do but as I said it's such a big mess inside that I stopped. What's the chances of the driver being actually broken?Have you remove the ear pad to look at the driver? Could just be a piece of foam that got stuck between the grill and the driver.
Hello everyone! I successfully purchased a pair of CD3000's in decent conditon for a very good price. Pads and headband leather needs to be replaced but that's ok. However my main concern is that the right driver distorts a lot when a song with heavy bass is played, unless I turn the volume way way down. I tried to take off the pads to see if something was stuck in there but that was a huge disaster as the black foam inside was completely disintegrated so my hands got full of sticky foam which is basically black paint and it was very hard to remove. I wanted to disassemble the cups to maybe blow on the driver? But since I saw how much of a big mess it was inside I ended up putting back the old pads and using them like that. What should I do? I really like them but I that buzzing when a bass note plays is quite annoying, as it limits the kind of music I can listen to.
Thanks
