Mike,

Do it - it certainly will harm nothing even if it does not cure any problem.
It can be done without disassembling the front panel - remove the left side panel, scrape a bit of the solder mask off the ground plane next to the microphone jack and solder an 'L' shaped wire to both the mic jack and the ground plane. It takes a lot of heat (and more time than a normal connection) to make the solder flow, so use a higher temperature on your soldering station or pull out the 'big gun' for this task

Hi,

Just wondering what the definitive advice is on doing the K2 Microphone Jack
Grounding modification. I note there is no mention of doing this in either
the K2 or KSB2 manuals?
