B&W PX Headphones - tear down to locate battery
Hello to anyone who has a PX headset and is suffering a dead battery like the pair I've been handed to try and repair. I realise B&W say "No" they can be repaired but that's the official response and no reason to not try myself. I'm an electronics tech so I despise throwing any power-dead appliances out before attempting a repair.
Has anyone done this? Any guidance on pulling the main ear piece apart would be super-welcome - pics attached.
They are a real challenge to pull apart and generally someone out there will have already tried this. Is there a way to get to the battery?
See the pics attached. I'm not sure if this plate/surround comes off or whether the top section prises off. If some of this is glued then I'm in trouble.
Any input welcome,
Cheers
