Headphone's

[qtipextra 5,000+ posts]

Headphone plugs seem to not be built very good latley. I have to constantly cut off the plug and replace it with another one. The only thing is, this time this plug is bad, and I don't have any others to put on it.

So where can I find a plug for cheap that will be pretty good quality?

Parts Express sells some really nice solder-on plugs...with big terminals...

Or just go to your local Radioshack, they used to sell nice metal-barreled stereo headphone plugs.

Can't you just buy some? Seems that would be alot easier than waiting for someone to mail them to you.

I might if it wont cost me more then 2 dollars. Not really worth more then that to me.

Yea, partsexpress has a pretty good one for cheap, but shipping is 1.89. Im not trying to be cheap, but seriously its not worth that to me.

Wal-Mart has .99 headphones, buy those and butcher the cable.

I was kinda thinkin that too, if I could find some dirt cheap headphones. but I dont know if my walmart will have those. And if they do, I dont know how good the plug will be. Maybe they have a cheap extension that has a decent plug. Hmm, good thinking

Dollar Tree usually has .99 cent headphones or whatever dollar store you have around your house.

Um, I don't know what cheap *** headphones you are using, but I've never had a plug for ANY headphones get messed up. What are you doing to them? I don't see how they can break when they are plugged into whatever it is you're using; I don't see how they can break when it's not plugged in.

I've had .99 headphones and $150 headphones, I've never had a plug break.

what the hell are u doing to the plug that it keeps breaking mang, i've had some headphones for a while now and it seems to me that as long as u know how to plug them into whatever u are listening to, there shouldn't be any problems.
