Suggestions on how to get broken sub cable piece out of receiver? - Blu-ray Forum

SellmeyourDVD · 10-11-2009, 03:03 AM

Unfortunetly I was moving things around and the tip of my subwoofer cable broke off in my receiver (I have an onkyo tx-sr606). Anyone else ever have this problem? I don't know what to do besides maybe pick up the receiver and hope that the piece falls out.... Hopefully someone has done this before and can give me some advice.

Go to Wal-Mart or any drug store and buy a long tweezer of appropriate size, a magnifying glass, a flashlight, and lots of patience.

my sub still works since the whole prong (is that what its called?) didn't break off in the receiver, so I think I might just suck it up until it makes me mad, or maddER than what I already am!

All of those things are easy for me to obtain, except for the patience part.... I get mad at the stupidest things...

Either the patience otherwise you will need to take it in to an Authorised service center where they can remove it for ya & while you have it there get it seviced as well

couldn't you just have someone hold it upside down while you get it with some tweezers?

take the lid off and push the part that is broken outwards from the inside of the receiver
