Fisher Audio Jubilate 64 - Yoke Mounting Bracket

The Fisher Audio Jubilate 64 are wonderful walnut-cup headphones that are no longer in production. Their weakest point is the bracket that mounts the headband yoke to the earcup — it carries constant flexing load and tends to crack or snap over time, and replacement parts are essentially impossible to source.

This is a reverse-engineered replacement for that bracket. I 3D-scanned an intact original, rebuilt the missing/broken features using the part's symmetry, and cleaned it up into a printable model. The metal hanger pin slots into an internal channel inside the printed bracket and is locked in place by a bolt that passes straight through the part to clamp it — just like the original.

What it is

• Earcup yoke / hanger mounting bracket
• Reconstructed from a scan of a genuine part
• Fits the original screw holes; metal hanger pin retained in an internal channel by a through-bolt

Print settings (recommended)

• Material: PETG (do NOT use PLA — this is a load-bearing, flexing part and PLA will creep and crack, especially in heat)
• Orientation: print it so the layer lines run along the direction of load at the pin mount, not across it — this is the part that fails, so layer adhesion across the weak axis matters
• Infill: 50–100%
• Supports: minimal, only at overhangs around the pin channel
• Raft: not needed on a clean bed

Left & right cups

Both cups use the exact same bracket — no mirroring needed. Just print two of the same model.

Fitting notes

Dry-fit before final assembly. Scans are never perfect to the micron, so you may need to lightly ream the pin channel or screw holes. Check that the metal hanger pin seats fully in the channel and that the through-bolt lines up before tightening.

The Story

These headphones mean a lot to me. The Fisher Audio Jubilate 64 was discontinued years ago, and the pair I own is one of the very last ever made — assembled by hand from the final repair kits, right at the workshop in St. Petersburg, about eight years ago. There simply aren't any more.

So when this little bracket — the single weakest link in an otherwise gorgeous walnut headphone — finally gave out, there was no part to buy and no second chance to find one. The choice was to either retire the headphones or make the part myself.

I scanned an intact original using RevoPoint POP3 Plus, rebuilt the broken features, and printed a replacement. It took a few frustrating evenings of fighting with CAD, but the result clicked into place and the headphones came back to life.

I'm sharing it here so that nobody else with a pair of these has to face that same dead end. These headphones are too good to lose to one fragile bracket. If this file keeps even one more pair playing, it was worth it.
