What is nice about these is that they max out at certain volume, no matter how loud it is set on the device. Kids tend to underestimate how loud things are, and we certainly don't want permanent hearing damage from listening to music too loud. Plus, when the volume is too loud, the kids won't be able to hear me when I address them.
Today when I went to help my middle child plug it in, there was just the bare wire and the jack was gone.
The jack wasn't still dangling from the iPad so no idea how the wire and the jack was torn apart.
Is it worth fixing this? It seems such a waste to throw out an entire headphone just for one broken spot.
I googled it. Looks like you can buy a headphone jack replacement. But it requires soldering. Then the question becomes how much stress can it take afterwards. I bet you that since it is right at the jack where the kids willing constantly push it and yank it out, unless the wires were pinched into the replacement jack some how, this would break again very quickly.
