Repair or replace?

[wilkinsi]

I think I may have shorted out my headphone cable. It has a micro stereo jack with a micro-1/4" jack adapter screwed onto it. I was adjusting it whilst it was plugged into the synth's h/p outlet , and now its dead. Took the 1/4" adapter off and plugged into my PC, dead too. The micro jack is sealed, so I the only way I could possibly get in there is to chop the end off, and put a replacement jack on, assuming I can seal the cable. Or should I just bin the cable and spend another £30 ?

What the heck is a micro 1/4" jack? Surely you mean 3.5 mm.

Micro TO 1/4" jack. Yes, I meant 3.5mm.

I'd just solder a new plug on there:
