Der Silikonüberzug an einem der Ohrbügel an meinem Podcast-Headset rutsche ständig runter, was auf Dauer ziemlich nervig war. Jetzt ist da halt roter Schrumpfschlauch drauf, der hält.

Opening the piano up was by far the hardest part of this repair.

Above the keys, green circuit boards are visible, crisscrossed with wires and ribbon cables. To the left and right, small, round speakers are mounted. The keyboard rests on a surface, with a glimpse of a red sofa and a bag in the background.
