What model of AKG's are they Humeurs?

Both great models of cans, and both discontinued. They do have MKII's but I've never used the new ones, so I don't know how close they are.
I'm not a maintenance person, but I do some of my own work. I have two little clamps that are invaluable for fussy little jobs like these.
If I were you, I'd buy at least one set of new cans. You can never have to many, and then you'll have a trustworthy backup for that important session when your current ones crap out. And if you end up liking it as much, bonus.
I like the Beyer, but I wouldn't say they are the "best sounding" compared to similar range cans like many AKG and Sony I've used. Personal preference is basically in play here. I do love how easy that whole line is to repair "in the field".macrae11 wrote:I take exception to the Beyer DT series comment.

Your head is bigger than Malcolm's. Just an observation...
