minus-square@Shayeta@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglish1•5 months agoSeems like a good opportunity to learn soldering.
minus-square@ledslink4•5 months agoCan not recommended, those headphone wires are clear coated for insulation, you’d need to burn that off before you’d be able to solder that.
minus-square@Shayeta@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglish2•5 months agoNothing a quick pass with a lighter can’t fix.
minus-square@Nawor3565@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglish1•5 months agoAre you sure? They’re separated by the outer insulation, they wouldn’t need any clear coating unless it was some weird cost-cutting measure.
minus-square@ledslink2•5 months agoPretty sure, at least the ones I tried soldering… In the picture there is no additional insulation on the the two copper bundles? Unless they are just shielding for actual insulated signal wire?
minus-square@sarmale@lemmy.zipOPlinkfedilink3•5 months agoWell the wires are still making contact so no need. I do have some old headphones where the wire is literally broken so there im gonna do it
