How to open up a Sennheiser e604?

[SittinIdol]

As the title says,

I have an e604 that just went dead on me. I want to open it up and check the wires, but can't get the sucker open! Anybody ever done this?

Thanks in advance

Yeah, I thought I might be the only one... guess it's going into the shop

Hang in there; I've got one I hafta fix, so I'll open it tonight and get back to you.

hey guys
dont mean to hijack the thread but i want to know if the e604 is a good mic for the toms?
or is there anything round the same price that is better?
thanks

I love mine........

I use one on my snare and I have used the other two on small toms. They work well enough on the larger floor toms, but I prefer the AT Pro 25 for floor toms. I use the e604 because it has a terrific range, tolerates high SPL's and sends a stronger signal than the SM 57. They are also small enough that they don't get in the way.

I like the way it sounds compared to the 57s, seems to flatter the toms that my drummer uses. I've only used them on one kit though, so I don't have a ton of experience.
