Hi Christoffer,

I'm normaly using ca. 320°C on my soldering station, more than 350°C could be dangerous for the SMD

Just delsolder 2 YAC´s and 2 YMF´s...

I just put my old soundblaser upsidedown in the microwen for 5 min..full effect...JUST KIDDING.... ;D

I found a method that worked for me..

I put an really really thin cable (I just use one of many small cables in one cable, Hmmm did anyone understand that???)  ;)

I didn´t....(sometimes the english don´t work for me  ;) )

Anyway, I put that cable around each leg..warm up the leg for like 1 sec and pull.

I can tell you that it took a while, but it´s worth it!!

I didn´t use an solder sucker.

And the soldering iron just 220°C
