Martin, very glad I found your post! Just did the conversion on my HS-5’s, to
take advantage of my K3’sub rcvr, but I was following the Hints & Kinks
article from QST (Jan, 05).  He never mentioned the extremely fine speaker
connecting wire, and I ended up de-soldering the white side, and breaking
the red side - drove me nuts for about two hours!  All continuity checked
out, with absolutely no sound from the headphones.

A search turned up your post, and the note about the ‘very, very thin’
leads, and another check confirmed I had done exactly what you had warned
against.  I resoldered both sides, and I now have my favorite ‘phones back,
in stereo!  Truly thankful to you.

Tony W3FLH
