RCA's Amp = teh fuxored?

[bad_trip 10+ year member]

There is an RCA prong stuck in the input of my amp, broken off from the wire. It's pretty mangled. On my Orion 2500D. Someone please instruct me. It would be greatly appreciated.

Can you pull it out with a pair of needlenose? I'm not sure of the design of the jacks on that particular amp but you might be able to push the pin out from inside the amp as well.

sorry i didn't put pictures up in my OP. i was in the process of playing around with it and posting @ the same time. i'll get some up tomorrow.

also, i'm pretty sure i won't be able to push it out from the inside. i don't think it has an opening all the way through. but i've got the end plate off and i was pretty much trying to slide it out with a eyeglasses screwdriver. i said forget it because grinders has 3 tacos for a dollar and beer tasting. i'll keep at it tomorrow.

A drop of thick superglue on a piece of coat hanger, and let it sit for a few minutes. Kinda like an abortion for your amp.

^ in my experience the glue always breaks free.

I'm assuming the rca end had to be pretty hard to get out in the first place if it ended up breaking.
