Introduction
This repair will require you to use a screwdriver and a soldering tool to remove certain components of the headphones. Only use this guide to replace damaged speakers that affect the output audio of the device. This repair should take roughly 30 minutes to complete.
What you need
-
-
Remove the foam pads by twisting them counterclockwise.
-
The pads should release from the grooves that are housed on the speaker inside.
-
-
-
There should be approximately three screws holding the right speaker. Unscrew them to gain access to the wiring of the speakers.
-
Keep the screws in a safe place. They are small and can easily be lost.
Plus, be careful because of the magnet in the speaker. You need to hold back the screws when they are unscrewed. Otherwise they might damage the membrane.

-
-
Leave the desoldered and unstripped wires for the next step.
-
-
-
Follow the instructions in reverse to put together the speaker in the housing, as well as the foam pad over the speaker.
-
Make sure to pack in all of the companents back into the housing when finished with this step.
Mooie handleiding, dank je!
Hebben jullie echter ook een url voor het bestellen van een vervangende speaker voor een Solo?
Great manual, thanks.
Do you also have a url to order a replacement Solo speaker?
Thxs,

Hello. I also have 1 damaged Monster Beats Solo. It was bought in 2013. The right speaker does not working properly - it sounds softer (opposite of lourder) than the left speaker and whenever I move, I can feel the sound of something loose inside the right ear cup/speaker. I already found some sellers selling the replacement speakers on ebay. Before buying the replacement parts, I decided to open the ear cup myself to check whether it is easy to open or not. However, so far I am unable to open it. I avoind using too much force because it is afraid that I might break the headphone.
According to some websites, the twist counter clockwise removal of the headphone pad is indicative of a fake beats solo HD, the genuine ones have fixed pads apparently. I can't guarantee this, but I do have a set of solo HDs with a faulty speaker and I can't easily remove the pad either
you forgot to mention polarity which matters if you mess that up ull get a lack of bass and phasing issues positive and negative should be clearly marked and a link to a proper replacement you should give proper instructions on how to check for proper polarity with a volt meter for those who dont know.
