Hi friends,

So I'm loving my new jvc fx-750s and I'm listening to them on the go. I get out of my car, and of course, bud gets stuck in the door. Not knowing this, I walk forward and get pulled back suddenly. To my horror, I see my beloved 750 bud on the floor.

Pop went the earbud. Pop went my soul.

Anyways, anyone have an idea of how this sort of issue could potentially be repaired? Once the wire snaps, is it game over? Anyone or anywhere I could send these?

Alas I'm still enjoying them one eared, but looking for any possible ideas here.

Picture below.

check the DIY section there is a DIY earbuds thread or similar, that should be fixable depending how far up the stretch goes. You might end up with a J cable sort of , unless you do the same to the other side.
 And a bit of shrinkwrap which will barely be noticable.
 
That's the semi-hack version though:
 I know the 5/700 series was moddable so  you may be able to have those opened the same way and do a proper recable also.
Somewhere in here there is a thread about modding the 5 and 700 series internally. Could very well be within one of their dedicated version threads.
 
Best of luck
