Ear pad came off. For the life of me i can't get it back on. Anyone figure out how to do this? disassemble the unit?

Pull off the flat piece that holds it in place and put the ear pad back around it. It will be a little hard and you'll feel like you're going to break it

Well, this is hard to say. But here's my experience. About a year ago I was moving my amp with headphones plugged in. I stepped on the headphone cord and it pulled the jack loose. Neither 'phones nor the speaker worked. I took the amp apart: the jack had pulled off a printed circuit board but otherwise was not damaged. I eventually was able to solder it back on. It took a number of tries, for a while I was only getting the left channel through the 'phones and I had to keep taking things apart and redoing. Finally got everything soldered right. However, now something is a bit loose and the speaker isn't working. If I jiggle the jack I sometimes can get it back. Sometime I'll have to open it up again and resolder things, but right now I am just using it for practice with the 'phones. I suspose if I took it to a pro, maybe I could get it done up totally right. However, I am too cheap and sometimes I have found that sometimes pros refuse to work on a something because they either don't deal with the brand, or perhaps in this case, decide the way to go is replace the whole circuit board.

Jessica, the same thing happened to me yesterday. My husband finally managed to get it back on but it took a while and it wasn't easy. Mostly he was afraid of breaking it. Good luck!

If definitely looks like it could be forced into the ear canal with some pressure and perhaps the removal of the foam wind guard. If you do manage to get it in place, would you kindly record me 60-120 seconds of ear canal tone?

When you get the box there should be different sized ear fittings inside. If you pull up on one of the edges of the foam fitting that's already attached to the buds then you pull it the rest of the way off. It doesn't just slide off easily but then again I don't think you'd want it to. After you've taken the fitting off then you can replace it the same way you took it off just reversing the process.

You have to unscrew it like a top. Hold the top grooves with your hands and twist it off, hope this helps. I've had mine for nearly 3 years and it is just now falling apart, need to buy a new one!!

D-a-a-h-h! I don't feel very intelligent right now. I went home last night and looked at itagain only to realize there was already an insert in place, so of course another wouldn't fit on top of it!!!! All is well now, just need to figure out a way to have the iPod on the dock and listen to the radio...without the earphones.Thanks so much :)

mine is doing the same thing. I have replaced the pads and still doing it. I think because of the thin cords from the device to the pads they are just not strong enough and the interior wires break ...I figure it has been a year and I got many, many uses from it...so will buy a new one. Wish the cords from device to pad were not so cheesy!!

I was wondering the same thing! I had a puppy chew one ear pad but the headphones are not damaged! So, instead of spending money on a new pair of headphones, I'd like to buy replacement pads!!

I contact Klipsch support since the seams on my M40 ear pads had seperated within the 2-year warranty. I was told they no longer have ear pads since the headphones are discontinued. That is certainly a poor excuse given that they are within warranty. I certainly won't be making any future purchases from Klipsch based on this poor after sales support. Perhaps a different brand of headphones has a comparable sized replacement ear pad that will fit these? Has anyone found such a match? Considering the cost I'm not ready to throw them away.

Easy to get replacements. Just look for a 2 inch foam earpad/ear pad replacement. Something like this: http://www.amazon.com/foam-2-Inch-cover-philips-headphone/dp/B003BRNZTM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1396378466&sr=8-2&keywords=45mm+earpad+replacement

I had the same problem. I just bought Bluetooth headphones. But I would try a drill. Just bore the hole a hair bigger until it fits. With it off the phone off coarse.

Mine came right off when I pryed my nail under it. If the unit is faced down, I tugged up on the slot on the side. Or, try contacting the manufacturer. Their literature that came with the unit indicated they have good customer service. Sorry, wish I could help more.

I struggled with this also, but it's actually super easy...it just slides apart. Use your thumb and index finger and hold the sides above the clip, and use the same hold in the middle of the bottom piece and then pull apart! Hope this was helpful. It's a really wonderful band, and I didn't have issue with the headphone jack as others did. Once I got it open and the Ipod inside, I was very happy I made the purchase!

Donnie: Next to the left of the volume control and the two inputs that are for headphones and "line out" there is a switch that says "Hold on" and "Off". Make sure the switch is in the "hold off" position. That should solve the problem.
