Was wondering if anyone knew of a place to get hinges for the Cloud Orbit S or Audeze Mobius headset(as they are the same basically)? Mine has broken from normal wear, happens a lot with these models apparently, and I haven't been able to find anywhere who sells the parts and warranty was just denied from the shop where I bought them. Really do not have the money to place them right now and I'm getting very tired of listening to the horrible sound that is the steelseries usb dac and a pair of cheap sennheiser HD 215.

Not sure where yours is broken, but I can't find new replacement parts for these, but found this :-

He seems to have ripped up two pairs and selling them for parts. Check if the part you need there and if still available.

Also this person 3d prints parts and maybe worth contacting for the part you need.

https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=Audeze+Mobius+&page=1&type=things&sort=relevant if you have a 3d printer or know someone that has one and need these parts.

Or this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5045466 HyperX Cloud Orbit hinge replacement click threw the pics there to see the hinge bit.

Maybe someone on the forums here has a 3D printer and would print you the part out, maybe worth asking if that's the part as the files are there to use to print the parts too.

Seems a very common thing with them headphones and headphones based on that headband.. Many complaints about them for the fact they break easily but sold as indestructible headphones the way they twist them in their adverts :rolleyes: .

Would it not be easier to just replace the whole headband with some different design headband that could be modded to work on them to save having the same issue again in the future, because people get them replaced and break again it seems so you would think someone has modded some generic headband or some other headphones headbands you can buy as replacement parts that may work with a simple mod.

Good luck with that but I would be contacting the manufacturer to get them replaced if the shop denied an RMA as reality is it seems a known issue with them designed headphones that use that headband.
 
@Purgatory Thank you for assistance. I found the hinge design after I posted this so my plan is to buy a 3D printer, always wanted one, and fabricate them myself. My damaged headset was eventually replaced(i got to keep the original damaged set) by HyperX directly so kudos to them for actually caring about customer support unlike the store where I bought them.
