I had an Altec Lansing UHP336, which I really loved the sound
 
However, sadly, the wires broke off from the armature a day later.
 
I really liked this IEM, it fits my sonic preferences.
 
Is it possible to solder back the wires to the armature?
 
And if I lost the wires inside, are there any substitutes for these wires?
 
Thanks in advance.

Aren't those the Super.fi 3 rebrands? I had this happen to me too, when the cable housing broke off from the earpiece. If the wires broke off from the connector, then it's not too hard to get them back on. If the wires broke off from the armature side, then you're going to have to disassemble (crack open) the housing. It's trivial to solder the wires themselves, although you'll need to burn off the coloured resin they use to mark the wires with your iron (or will flux work on the resin?).
