BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS~

i thought of grafting a new jack onto the cord, but it has three? four cables so i didnt go through with that.

The cables are for L-channel, R-channel and ground

can this still be repaired?

Yep.

who or where do i go to?

1. Join www.headphiles.org
2. pm sandmoose or blackwing

how much?

300 pesos more or less (parts included) if I had to estimate

or can i just repair it myself?

anyone got spare jack/cord that are compatible? XD
or where can i buy em?

Any audiophile branch. Ask for a 3.5mm plug. I suggest getting an angled plug. Sandmoose and blackwing both have stocks of plugs though, to make things faster.

an officemate recommeded behringer, but he couldnt remember the model nor the price. another one mentioned getting a Fiio amplifier.

An amplifier will only be as good as the headphone it's used with. Upgrading headphones should be priority IMO. I've never heard the Behringer line-up, but it's known as a brand for budget conscious people that produces passable (not quality) equipment for the price. I'd suggest a Sennheiser PX100-II or an Aiaiai Tracks from Digital Walker or TPC

are behringer headphones sturdy enough for daily sardine bus/fuck-you-MRT commute?

Goodness, no headphones are sturdy enough for that
Might as well have a herd of rampaging water buffalo run over your headphones.

where to get em, and how much?

Ask around in Park Square 1. There's a Behringer dealer there.

Fiio amp, is it worth the money?

Only if you have good headphones to begin with.

officemate said if you use a Fiio you wont need a highend headset. is this true?

where and how much?

There are dealers everywhere. Most of them offer shipping for 100 pesos or so.

is there a converter for audio out cables to earphone jack?
again, where and how much?

This is where Fiio amps (or any other porta amp) can be useful. You basically get the line out signal from the TV and pass it through a headphone amp to be able to control the volume.
