Question about longeviety.
I've never thought about it before, but on a Sennheiser EW300 handheld microphone, unthreading the bottom to replace the batteries is also decoupling the capsule from the body.
Since these contacts are gold, is there a possibility of them wearing out?
In the past I've heard gold contacts are soft and wear out quickly.
Any insight?
