Default Fixing Headphones

Can anyone tell me where I can get the specific wire used or whether or

The tinsel wire is so fragile, general-purpose stranded wire may
do fine. Or, use some RG-174 coax.
Also, where can I get the plugs for headphones? (I assume one just solders
the leads to them before using something like shrink-wrap).


Hopefully, on Staten Island, you should be able to find a Radio Shack or
similar store.
