Title: Broken optical/line in jack on JB3
Post by: treydaman on August 06, 2007, 02:28:07 PM

So last night I packed up my rig pretty quick and made a stoopid mistake leaving the cable plugged into the jb3.This broke the connection on the inside(outside appears fine) of the optical/line in jack.
When I wiggle the 1/8 inch cable I can get signal but it doesnt stay.
Does anyone know where I may be able to repair this problem?
Thanks for any help.

+t for your troubles and hopefully you an fix this fast. I went to kmart and bought a metal cd case and drilled a hole in the side so I could keep my optical line plugged in and store it securely.
Peace
