Pin broken on 9pin connector of speakers

Well, on a very nice set of 5.1 speakers, one of the pins on the 9pin connector broke off, the speakers no longer work. Is there a way to fix it? Do they sell replacement ends for it?
 
Okay, I just checked, the speakers are a 5.1 set of Altec Lansing, and it's the front right speaker which has the broken pin. It's the one that contains all of the volume controls as well, and connects to the subwoofer.
 
I fixed it, for those of you who are curious to what I did, I simply took a small piece of wire, and manually made the connection from the missing 9th pin to the broken off nub. Works great. 🙂 Too bad in the process I found out my Center/Bass audio out on my A7N8X Deluxe is broken! I really don't feel like RMAing my motherboard. 🙁
