I have a really expensive pair of headphones,
don't feel like buying another one, the headphone jack is the only thing that's broken, end piece snapped off

Try taking the jack from another pair of headphone, cut the broken one off then splice the wires together?

Ok you know how like,
there's the ground wire and the colored wire
On my headphones the ground wire and colored wire are like really thick and when I try to splice it with another audio jack that I cut it's like
way too thin as opposed to the headphone's ground and colored wire |

oh well
did you strip the plastic off? the wires might actually be regular sized but I don't know even though I should since I know audio engineering crap |
