Headphone jack issue

[Cantaloupeman]

I have a pair of ad700xs which ive had for a bit less than a year and recently the jack started actingg weird. If i plug it in normally it sometimes plays sound only out of one ear as if the jack is loose. I have to push it in and wiggle it around for a bit to get it to play sound out of both ears. I usually alternate between my tv, ipad and pc. So i plug and unplug them a lot. Does anyone know what might be happening and if theres a way to fix it? Thanks in advance.

Try replacing the jack.

 

I don't see why you wouldn't just bump the thread you posted the other day that has the *exact same* question.

You cut off the old one, get a new one, and solder it on.

Unfortunately, they don't have a removable cable, so what he said:

If you're not very confident in your ability to do this then ask someone you trust.

 

But before you jump the gun, just check the headphones with a different device, and a different pair of headphones with the original devices.

This is a very good expansion on what I was saying. Thanks!
