Taking apart a headset?

[aorsak]

Does anyone know how to take them apart? I'm clumsy, tripped on the wire, and now one of the speakers won't work. Rip. The exact model is SADES SA 708. The mic and right speaker works but I'd like to try to fix it.

don't take this apart. as it is such a cheap headset, just buy a new one.

Remove the left ear pad and feel around to see if you can find tabs or screws under the thin foam layer (if there is one). Then check for a poor solder joint. A quick soldering job should fix your problem.

While I agree, I have experienced this headset, and due to it's low quality, I would use this as an opportunity to buy a decent headset.

Well he might not be able to afford a new one... or this could be used as a backup pair. I would agree that a higher quality headset or headphones+mic would be ideal.

Again, I agree, however, as you said, a new set would be good, and given that in only costs around £12, you might end up paying that much on replacement parts should you break it further while attempting to fix it.
