20:00 <eintopf> DocScrutinizer05: I guess everything is glued together there. I will just replace the cable with a worthless device which also use a 3.5mm "audio?" plug

20:02 <DocScrutinizer05> when your question is whether you could repair 3.5mm sealed jack, then no. You could replace it with a new plug or you do what you suggested and swap the complete cable

20:03 <DocScrutinizer05> I'd choose first approach though, for any high quality headphone/set

22:24 <eintopf> DocScrutinizer05: what about 7/8 of a cable?

22:24 <eintopf> no 1/8

22:24 <eintopf> with the plug

22:26 <eintopf> it's not really hight quality, both of them

22:34 <DocScrutinizer05> splicing sucks

22:35 <DocScrutinizer05> and will break in no time most likely, from tearing

22:37 <DocScrutinizer05> headset cables usually have very thin caopper braid and their strength is either from isolation or from a steel wire used for mechanical reasons that is not serving an electrical purpose. For both (steel wire and isolation) splicing/joining them is very difficult

22:54 <eintopf> mhh

22:59 <eintopf> I can try "splicing" if it's not working I can still replace it with a new plug
