Recently some random hit my mbp and the fairly large speaker wire plugged into the headphone jack got hit and i'm pretty sure it messed up the headphone jack on my mbp. Now you can't plug things all the way into the jack and i hear static... i called apple and they said its accidental so they wont cover the repair, duh.
So, since the repair will cost a **** load, i'm wondering if there are alternative ways to plug in my speakers/ cans into my mbp. Either a soundcard that plugs into this PCI e 1x slot on the side i believe it is, or maybe a usb device, i would rather something that stuck into the PCI slot though. i use both my usb ports fairly often.
do you guys know anything i can do?
if it uses firewire ports, then thats good cause i dont have anything that uses those ports.
