[QUOTE="ghostinthemachine, post: 38681, member: 760"] There is many causes. In a silver coil Van den Hul MC I have seen the wires simply oxidizing until completely disintegrated. Then there is the ol' blooper of sending too much current through the delicate coils. Open coil cartridges usually gets damaged by the user where the coil wires are mistaken for accumulated hair!! Sometimes a wire will detach if the cartridge is dropped of knocked. And connections simply fail due to bad soldering at the output pins. Dynavector cover some of their MC wires and connections with a substance similar to Vaseline. It damps the wires (ringing) and protects it from moisture. [/QUOTE]
