Replacement part for Beats

[bastic]

Hi,
I was given Beats studio free of charge
only problem is a cracked headband.
Does anyone know from where I could get a replacement from ?
there are some on bay of E, but located in states or Australia.
Couldn’t find anything in UK...
Thanks

A whole new set of headphones should just about manage it

Unless you can find someone selling maybe a pair that are broken for spares (failed drivers, for eg), then I don't think you're going to find any spares. Some headphone manufacturers make spares available, but these tend to be well respected brands, like Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic. You won't get Monster or now Beats themselves releasing spares for Dr Dre headphones, because they have one goal, to screw the customer out of as much money as possible; hence their ridiculous prices. They would prefer someone just shell out more cash for a new pair.

Go on facebook and buy yourself a fake pair, for £10 and just change the band over

Oh yeah you can get them fixed quite easily, a whole new set of headphones should just about manage to fix them.

tape was my fix for my slightly broken pair

Guess warranty is out of the question?

I believe proper beat headphones have metal headbands? All the fake ones have plastic, my friend at work got conned with them and the packaging had hilarious spelling mistakes on it but I digress.

Cant you just go down the route where you got them from and replace under warranty, these are a "premium" item and I would expect their customer services to live up to the ridiculous price tag.

A friend's Beats headphones suffered a similar fate. He contracted the manufactures and had them repaired, from what I remember it was not a long or complicated process.

thanks guy for all replies.

top cover is plastic and main headband is metal. it is plastic that is broken.

only spare parts Ive found are inn states.

I might get in touch with them and ask if they would fix them or just send me a replacement headband.

yeah, its actually really easy, all you will need is a whole new set of headphones, that should just about manage it

Oh dear

I know beats are frowned upon but if the op was given them free and can get them repaired cheap then surely thats a good option still?

But then he is still left with the beats headphones.

Yes but they were free.

They are not so terrible that you would refuse a free set of beats even if you just wanted to sell them on.

Id just stick them on the bay personally as broken/spare repair.

I know I was joking, I would contact Beats to see what they say.

Beats don't do spare parts and as those are out of warranty, they won't fix them...
Black tape for me and bay of e for a replacement headband later
