Hello Head-fi community!
My headphone jack got bent. I tried to bend it back in place and the bottom ring (the ring closes to the cable and furthest from the tip of the jack) fell off.
I'm using the audio technica ath-ad700x. IIRC the right side of my headphones will sometimes lose sound unless I adjust the headphone jack by twisting as it is connect to my PC. I have the cables in a stiff stationary position, so this help me listen to my headphones normally. However, I would like to repair the jack as an experiment.
Is this an easy fix, and does my problem have to do with the ring that broke off?
