    It will not be it anyway, but it will be best to use a two-component epoxy glue, you can buy it in almost all electrical wholesalers, for plastic it is probably one of the best glues, but you have to leave it to dry for about 24 hours, even if it was written for a shorter time.

    Glue alone is not enough. You need to paste the "core" (wire, thin tape). If the cross-section of the crack is of a reasonable size, you can drill holes there and glue the cores, and then glue everything together. But rather, it will fall apart over time. I would give up the aesthetics a bit and try to strengthen it mechanically (e.g. attach a parallel thin, elastic (metal) tape from the top (just be careful because you don't know what goes through the middle there).

    Strengthen this crack from the bottom by sticking the headband, for example, with a thin aluminum sheet or a strip of some plastic. The latter, if found from the same material group, can be welded to the original part.

    Take a bit of shavings from the broken element and look for a solvent that dissolves the material. Then it would be worth finding a similar material and, after dissolving it, make the best glue for a given type of "plastic". You strengthen the headband with a mechanically resistant element (for example a steel plate) by sticking it and pouring it from the outside. If you hit right with the solvent, this combination will be as durable as the original.

    Trim it with leather or other material and it will be grazing :)

    With this approach, you can't actually fix it. The headphones are cracked, right? Not usable at the moment, right? If you cut the lining or take it off somehow and stick the headband with one of the proposed methods, you probably won't hurt a lot. And sticking such headphones together is not a flight to Mars, which you are trying to equate to yourself here. you got very accurate advice and a description of several different and effective methods. So it's time to take your fingers off the keyboard and get down to business.

    Once again ... You put a steel plate (springy) to the upper and lower part of the headband. You wrap it with natural string. You pour the appropriate glue. Ultimately, you should try to obtain an additional "coating" that mechanically stabilizes the entire structure. Well, as someone wrote above, you cover it with leather and you have limited edition headphones :-)

    Show off how it turned out and what repair method you chose, others will have proven methods in the future when they break their headphones.

    What did the resin detach from? From a plate or plastic? Looks like you glued something wrong. Send it in and I'll try to fix it :D If there is anything else ...
    Can't match the headband from some other cheaper headphones?

    Insert a picture of what is left, we will adjust something or put it together. Many are on the market and exchanges of used headphones with razed speakers, such as low-budget Philips Esperanza tdk firsty etc. :)

    Did you wrap it with string before epoxy pouring?

    You're right, you can't. You can stick something that has no stress. You have to do like here Link . So you either take them to where they weld plastics and maybe they will do it for a few zlotys, or you have to blend something in yourself.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around repairing the broken headband of Solo HD Beats by Dr. Dre headphones. Users suggest using two-component epoxy glue for strong adhesion, emphasizing the need for mechanical reinforcement, such as inserting a wire or thin tape, and possibly using aluminum or steel plates for added stability. Some recommend checking the type of plastic for appropriate adhesive selection, while others propose creating a new metal headband due to the difficulty of effective repairs. The author shares their unsuccessful repair attempts, leading to the conclusion that a new headband may be necessary.
