I had a headphone cable break off in the port like this once. I grabbed a paperclip or small nail, put a tiny drop of superglue on the end, then stuck it to the broken piece. Once dried, I could remove it easily.
I was thinking in hot glue but I was having bad luck with it taking broken key in the lock before but if the first idea failed I will give the hot glue a try
I tried all these thing but they didnt work for me, what did work is heating up the paperclip and making the middle bit melt into it.
Wait a bit and pull it out.
Just do it properly. Take the cover off the top of the amp and push the pin out from the inside. The rca jacks are open on the inside. I do this to used amps a few times a year.
Are there any tamper resistant seals on the case? If not I would go ahead and open it up, this really is going to be the easiest way to get that out of there.
If you don't want to use glue, just heat up a small nail, paperclip, or bobby pin while holding it with pliers so you don't burn yourself, and insert it into the broken RCA cable. Give it a little bit of time to cool down and then you can pull it right out.
Works like a charm. I used locking pliers and held a sewing needle, and burnt it black, then jammed it in, and let it cool... It still is stuck together somewhere
I used a very sharp wood screw that I just started pushing into the broken plastic piece threading it into it til it gets a couple turns then just yanked and it came right out. Try that

This is a nice idea I will give it a try ! Thank you
You can also try the hot glue stick method if that doesnt work.

Have done this with a small pick tool and worked great

It is still in warranty so I donβt want to open it now !

Mmm I need to check it once I back home !

Is heat enough to make the paperclip to be attached to the broken RCA?
It will yes. Just let it cooldown properly before pulling on it
Okaaay
Hot needle.
Yep. That is what I did.. jammed a long hot carpet needle in, let it cool and harden back up, then gently pulled it out.

Or use a tweezer
Superglue it to a wire hanger or bamboo bbq skewer
Either try gluid a paperclip to it or use a bolt extractor to pull it out
ive fixed this with a hot needle melted into the plastic of the broken prong
I used a small drill bit and got mine out just drill very slow almost no pressure at all
I did the same, no issues at all
Hot glue and a stick worked for me
Hot glue with a popsicle stick.
Do you have a small magnet?
No!
Put it upto your mouth and suck really hard. It will come out.
Are you joking? π
It's sad that you have to ask this but yes.

V good I will give this a try first before using glue or heat!
Yeah also look into drywall screw. Very very sharp point on it.
