Moss Media offers Beyer DT100 series headphone repairs and spares by post

The robust mechanical quality and good audio performance of Beyerdynamic DT100, DT150 and DT190 series of studio headphones and headsets has seen them widely adopted for presenter, producer, operator and news and sport applications in radio stations of all sizes. However the very demanding environment in which they operate means that even Beyer headphones and headsets need maintenance attention eventually.

Here, probably the most important advantage of the DT100 line in service is that its components are readily available as spare parts. For many years Moss Media has held stocks of commonly required spares, to provide a rapid repair service to broadcast clients. Some years ago, with demand growing, a "headphone repairs by post" service was introduced, allowing broadcasters from anywhere in the UK to send headsets for repairs - with return (subject to credit clearance and delays outside our control) usually within 48 hours. All such workshop repairs are carried out by experienced engineers for a fixed price (see below.)

If you are able to undertake local Beyer repairs or have a technician available, DT100 series parts may be ordered from Moss Media for despatch by post, again usually within 48 hours. Naturally this is subject to parts being available: items are occasionally out of stock, and parts not frequently required may have to be ordered from UK distributor stock or the manufacturer in Germany, in which case lead times may be some weeks.

Beyer DT250 Series spares and repairs
Though perhaps not quite as robust as the DT100 series, DT250 series headphones and headsets have also gained wide recognition as another broadcasting workhorse, particularly in on-air studios. Many presenters prefer their "sound" to that of the DT100. Major component parts such as connecting leads, ear and head cushions are readily available as spares, and can be supplied by post. Repairs can also be carried out in our workshops. Please enquire for further details.

PLEASE NOTE: DT250 series units are not currently included in our fixed workshop price "repairs by post" scheme..
