Whoops-a-Daisy!

Went to put my headphones on the other night (Audio Technica ATH-AD700) and noticed that the 3.5mm jack plug was bent. I think it might have been a result of me standing on the cable whilst clearing them away the last time I used them. Either that or I've shut the connector in the drawer after packing them away. One thing's for sure - I was drunk at the time.

I obviously tried straightening them out using brute finger force - and did a rather good looking job. However, I get no audio out of the right ear-piece.

Is something like this repairable does anyone know? I've only had them a month and wouldn't mind keeping them.

Oh, feel free to lecture me on the merits of proper headphone storage too!
