hey guys - one of my 480 bodies seems to have a short of some kind in the XLR connector, ie, if you wiggle the mic cable connector at the mic end, the mic goes, well, i cant really figure out how to spell the sounds it makes, but you get the idea. i have tried three differnt mic cables, so i know it is in the mic body itself.
anyway, since i have fixed many similar kinds of problems with other musical gear in my life, do you think i can risk trying to fix this myself, or shold i just bite the bullet and send it off the AKG repair service? i havent examined it closely yet, but how easy is it to get the innards out of the body? is there any kind of repair guide on line? i hate the idea of sending my mic off...
thanks.
