- In this video you can get to know how to fix a broken headphones cable. I hope I can help a lot of people with this video. One really important information that I didn't include in the video: in general the drivers have 2 wires, red is the positive and white is the negative. The thick cable has 3 wires inside, the black is the negative which is a common one and the white, red are the positive ones. You should connect the positie from the driver to the positive from the thick cable, and so on.

Thank you! It worked like a charm. A little improvement I did was to drill through that little rubbery thing (2:50) and re-use it to hold new cable in place. No glue needed.
You are welcome. Im glad it helped 🙂
Nice solution :)
What did you use to drill through the rubber?
@@dicecard921 I used the smallest drill bits I had at home. Just that and a lot of patience xD -- the rubber thingy stretches when drilled so the result diameter of hole is less than drill bit's diameter. For the life of me, I don't remember which drill bit was just right for the job.

I have the Superlux HD668B headphones and a reviewer from Amazon recommended to use heat shrink tubing on the 3.5mm plug. I did that on my headphones and its much more sturdy. I will still be careful with it. I guess some people are very rough with the headphones or accidentally yanking them. Try it. It doesn't cost much.
Thank you!. U make me fix my Superlux Hd681 that have been broken almost 2 years. Easy to follow tutorials.
Thank you. That was very helpful. My Syperlux sounds properly again.
Thanks it was very helpful. A suggestion, if theres enough room you can make a knot with the main cable right before you connect the red-white ones, that way not matter how much force you put on it, it wont be damaged and you dont need extra tools (hot glue).
Thank you for the video. I managed to keep the plug, was tricky but works fine. Glued it into place with hot glue, now it comes out of the hole left from the cable but its rigid.
Thank You very much, I fixed my wife headphones today, by Your video. One thing: I used the original cable holder, drilled up to 3,5 mm.
Finally a good video on how to fix them, appreciated 🙏
Thank you! Hope it helps :)
Thanks a lot, it was really helpful for me. The same problem, I got stuck at the point of disassembly and did not dare to apply force. You took this risk for me and others. Unlike your case, I just made the cable with the jack near the headphones a little longer, now it resists bending better. The manufacturer must do this from the very beginning.
Took them out of the box after 2 years of sitting broken and I find this video added two weeks ago. Really good one thanks!
Hope it helps ;) thanks
@@techzact It just did! Thank you very much :)
You are welcome :) you made my day
Thank you very much, it helped me with my superlux hd668b.
I'm happy it helped :)
I love these headphones. I had 3 pairs breaking on me already.
I keep buying them as I've tried more than 20 headphones under £100 and none of them match these.
I’m also using them after repairing, however I could buy new ones but I dont need cause they are good enough :) thx for your comment! Have a nice day!
Instead of replacing the full cable. Possibly install a 3.5mm jack or a socket. In this way the damage is reduced or even prevented. They will look a bit like the 681 EVO with the detachable cable.
Thank you. This was perfect. Other videos are not clear at all.
Thank you! I tried to be simple and understandable :) Im happy it happened like that :)
hint: right after you buy them, put hot glue on the connector from the earphone (let it cool down and repeat, multiple layers 2 or 3 times), so it gets hard like a tank, if it does not move, it cant break. thats how i use mine since 5 years :)
What if its already a bit chipped?
@@otactp3285 will be fine as long is the wires arent damaged internally
Thank you very much, i fixed 2 superlux with this video,
Saved me both money and time. Thank You very much!
But fuck the deliberately flawed design of the cable. Whoever done it should be kicked in the arse.
Köszi ezt a videót is! :) Rendes tőled, hogy a hibát is benne hagytad, hogy más már ne fusson aknára. Csak így tovább!
Nincs mit :) koszi szepen, orulok, h segitettem :)
I can actually hear your voice perfectly fine even with a broken cable despite everything else sounding unrecognizable
You saved me, thanks a lot
Thank you! I finally fixed mine
I'm happy, you are welcome :)
muchas gracias amigo, no podía permitir que mi compadre muriera por el cablecito. Thank you! ❤
gosh yes, Im having exactly the same problem. thank you soooo soo much 👍👍🙌🙌👌👌
Thank you, Man 😀😀
sound is back😄👍
Super cool! You are welcome :)
I thought for your profile picture that there’s a hair on my screen 😃
@@techzact 😂😂😂 nice so it worked with the hair
@@cengizkenet so that was the intent :DD
Maan thank you :) Great tutorial, works like a charm
Cool 😊 you are welcome ;)
This is a design problem with the Superlux - but it should be possible to replace the input socket with a better quality metal socket - very cheap components - and wired as original. That way you can make use of different cables as intended. It makes sense to me to have the socket on a small length of wire so that it is say 50cm away from the headphones. Also when soldering small wires like this it is best to reinforce the joint with a small length of heat-shrink tubing.
Thank you so much, just saved me R600, thats about $38 in your currency. Much appreciated
You are welcome :)
Hello, i tried following as closely as in the video, and managed to get this piece of junk i found that doesn't make sound at all, to make sounds on both sides!
However i noticed when i tried testing the sound, it seems that the sound is flipped between left & right. And also one side doesn't produce any bass. Is that possible because of bad connection from the solder? Or the driver just aren't good anymore?
2:25 OH it just slides off. The rubber band on mine broke just few days after use (I guess my head is too big) so I replaced it with a normal rubberband.
Good job
Thanks a lot :)
How can i find out which wire i should connect to left/right/ground? I wanted to solder a 3,5mm jack in. but i am not sure which is left and which right.
In most cases red is right and white is left but you should google it 🤷♂️
From another video
Headphone red->Cord red (right)
Headphone blue->Cord White (left)
Headphone copper/yellow->Cord black (ground)
Your connection is weak and will brake soon. You need to twist wires together first to making a light mechanical connection, then apply solder
Can i use female part of extension cable instead? So I can have a detachable cable
Could you describe this more accurately please?
@@techzact Hi! I’ve already replaced it^^ thanks to the video it all went smoothly, it was my first time soldering and your tutorial was perfect for me! Thanks a lot, you earned yourself a subscriber :D

@@solidus3659 WOW, Cool. I'm glad to hear that. You're welcome. Thx for the sub and have a nice day! :)
@@techzact you too! :)
@@solidus3659 thank you :)
Why they keep building them with that jack plug, it is really bad and always breaks.
Thats a great pair of headphones! I am using it for 3+ years already and they have been repaired 5+ times :)
BUT, the last time I tried to fix them again, but it didn't work. I bought a new 3.5 plug and soldered it. Still, my right speaker does not work. Under plastmass near right speaker everything seems ok. So, i think it is broken somewhere inside (under right speaker or inside of metall headband). Can you give me a hint what can be a problem? I did not drop them, so right louder should be ok. Thx.
I have changed the plug again and it actually started to work! That's amazing headphones, haha. I think they never die if you repair them everytime :)
do you know how to protect the cable to prevent this?, thnxs
The quality of that cable is not so good, that's why it's getting broke for a lot of people. Maybe you can put some tape around that part and be gentle with it when you use the headphones, but other than that I think there's no way to prevent it.
@@techzact its good idea, Im going to try whit tape. Thank you, nice and usefull chanel. good luck!
@@agustingribaudo5162 hope it helps :) You are welcome and thank you very much :)
I recommend buying a solid braided cable and then soldering it like this, even the amazon basics braided cable will last an insane amount of time.
@@yukiyuki8758 thanks for the advice :)
You are a lifesaver!!!!
Thank you! I'm glad it helped :)
tuve un proble que solo se me escucha del lado derecho y segui los pasos como lo indica el video
Sorry but I don't know what could be the problem. :(
my solder don't fix in the cable.. Do u use paste?
No, because tje solder which I used has flux inside.
They should sell all Superlux headphones as DIY kits - quality is a lottery, and you still need to get it right sooner rather than later. So it's better to solder the thing yourself!😠
Grazie mille, un saluto dall'Italia!!
