Default Help needed
Hello,

I have a pair of Icemat Siberia. Unfortunally, I broke the cable right next to the volume controller. So, I'm quite limited right now :




The best option would be someone selling me the missing part
In a more realistic way, I could just buy a new cable that would connect what I have right now to my PC. Where should I buy this thing, and what is the name of it??

Thanks

That picture you are shoing of the headphone, looks like they could plug right into a soundcard...
what did you break? Can you just repair the wire?

It used to be plugged in the volume controller which was a long cable. Right now, it's to short to be plugged directly in the soundcard. Maybe I could repair it.. it worths a try! During that time, I just want to know the alternatives I have

You can get a 3.5mm mini-jack extension cable for the heapdhones so you can plug them right into your soundcard and toss the volume controller, use the card to control the volume. Either that or repair the unit or order another from the company if you can.. Hope this helps.
