Sad to say, but my trusty old CM-500 headphones with boom mic finally bit the dust. The ear pads had started rotting away, leaving me with black pieces of gunk on my ears after every on-air session. Tried replacing the pads with a set of Koss pads but they simply were too small and I wound up breaking off the connectors going to the speakers. Life is too short to spend any more time messing with them, so it’s time to look for a replacement.
I’d like to hear from others who are using a similar type of headphone/mic combo - one that is a direct plug-in to the back of a K3 like the Yamaha CM-500. If Yamaha would offer replacement parts to their users I’d consider getting another CM-500, but they don’t and I’m not inclined to buy something again that cannot easily be repaired. Suggestions…?
