DIY Roccat Syva headphone repair: Learn how to fix headphone issues

Question

Hello.
I have a problem with my Roccat Syva headphones. The problem is that one handset suddenly stopped working. My question is this: can you fix it yourself, or is it over?
Thank you in advance for your response.

Hey

Has it stopped working by itself? or did you pull on the cable when pulling it, or jerk on the handset, it could also cause it to stop working or how you used them outside in such weather, in what circumstances did it happen?

Usually the headphones are broken at the jack or the handset.
It would be necessary to locate the place where the break occurred, e.g. by moving the wires while playing music, if we locate the place whether it is at the headphone or m.Jacku then the decision whether it is possible to open the handset is usually ultrasonic welded or glued shorten the wire a little and solder. As for M. Jacek, it's a little harder to try to take off
plug cover and also shorten a piece of wire and solder the wire.

With jack molding, it can come out a linden, it is better to buy if you need the 3.5 jack plug and solder.

Replacing m. Jacek with a new one is the simplest thing, but keeping the original one is a bigger challenge.
I personally heat the plastic casing, then with a very thin screwdriver I separate the casing from the metal part and then just soldering and folding back.

No yes, no matter how you do it, it works, although I personally have to, because I know that I will often use the jack, I buy the plug, solders and finally gives a shrink tube.

They last worked this morning, the next use and notice of the fault occurred in the afternoon. This cable is flat, I don't know if it could be broken so easily. As for exchanging the jack, how much can such a jack cost?

One more question is there a 100% break at the M.Jack plug? Does the sound appear in both headphones when the cord is moved around the plug?

mastersq10 · Answer

I moved the cable in every direction and did not notice any changes. That the Jack plug is not to blame.

Sławek 61 · Answer

Buddy, also move the cord at the damaged earphone and see if there is a sound if it appears, it means that the damaged cord is in this place.

mastersq10 · Answer

Lord buddy, I moved and still nothing. So the earpiece should be the same? It can be repaired somehow. I will add that the warranty has already expired after I lost my receipt.

Sławek 61 · Answer

It is difficult to advise something if you do not see it, I personally would try to get to the earphone itself to check if it is good if good, I would shorten a few centimeters of the cable and solder to it if it still does not work, Jack also shortens a few centimeters of the cable and replacement of the plug .

mastersq10 · Answer

I close, these headphones do not work and period.
