I've recently bought a pair of Genelec 8020-monitors. They have individual volume-controllers, meaning each time I turn them on, I have to adjust the volum on both of them - which is annoying in the long run. To solve this, I've attached both of them (together with the mixer) to a power extension cable with a power-switch.

Is it possible to damage a KM184 just by unscrewing the tip? I was searching for the serial number to register my mic, and then screwed it back together. Now the mic seems to be not working. Is this a fluke, or did I possibly damage it by unscrewing the tip? It was working fine before.

So far I've only been recording friends but I would like to start recording local bands...most of whom I don't know. I think it would be a good idea to get some sort of legal contract that would require the clients to pay in a certain amount of time for any equipment damaged, broken, or stolen.
