Small (major) problem with SVS woofer
Posted: Wed Mar 29, 2017 9:52 am
I own a newish SVS-PC subwoofer (the big cylindrical one) and I did some damage to one of the RCA plugs.
I inadvertently stepped on the speaker wire to one of the plugs. It broke off, leaving the pin inside the hole on the speaker. I opened the amplifier only to realize that these RCA plugs go right into a self-encased module on the inside - no way to get at the plug from behind. The complany said that it is irreparable and that I need to purchase a new $250 amplifier.
Do you have any suggestions for a DYI fix? How would drillling a hole through the metal plug in the canal, then trying to pull it out work?
Help.
