Re: Don't crack the globe on a Sennheiser A5000-CP


Had one of the nuts that holds the globe onto the back plate come loose inside one time.  The rattling was annoying so I chose to open it up.  Once it was determined which hardware removed the globe, and which held the actual antenna coil to the backing plate, the process wasn't too bad.


 


It does appear that if the whole unit is banged around too much that the plastic 'spacers' inside which hold the antenna coil in it's optimum position will break.




To anyone who hasn't seen the Sennheiser innards...Picture a coil similar to the one in the Shure HA-8089 except the coil is larger at the baseplate and narrows as it moves upward.  It looks similar to an igloo.  I did not take photos unfortunately.
