I'm trying to splice the plug end of an 1/8 headphone cable onto some phones with a bad end. The plug side is fine, it had regular plastic insulated wire.
The phones, however, have the sorta twisted ceramic coated stuff with the thin cotton "String" in the middle. If it was a solid wire, some sand paper works fine, but does anyone know any way to strip these babies?
In the past I've resorted to a "separate the conductor from the string, sand, destroy the thin fragile wires, cut farther back, repeat" method.
Maybe a solvent or something?
