Hello. I'm the Product Specialist for part of the MKH Series (I actually handle the studio mics) here in the U.S. and I just wanted to assure everyone that we are available to assist with any remaining issues that may still be lingering with anyones 8060's. If anyone is still experiencing issues, please contact me at ccurrier@sennheiserusa.com. An isolated batch of these mics were impacted and a solution has been implemented. I would be more than happy to assist in any way that I can. You can also contact the Sennheiser Service Admin Team at 877.736.6434. We stand behind our products and want to ensure that everyone is completely satisfied. If that's not the case, please give us the opportunity to make it right for you.
