Hi I have a Peavey Bandit 112 Transtube serie and I dont have a headphone output in the back. I was wondering if I could plug headphones somewhere else (send output) to cut the sound pf the speaker and bring it into headphones. Thanks

I have to assume you're really meaning a tear in the speaker cone. If so, yes you can repair it if it's small and yes, it will affect the sound. Peavey Bandit amps have come with a few different speakers over the life of the name, but all will still be available either online or directly from Peavey's parts department.

Here is a link to the manual for this unit, it shows a few settings and explains the controls for you pretty well, like this "transtube" feature. You will never get the sound of those you listen to on albums or radio unless you use a lot of expensive equipment but you can get a pretty good imitation of it if you get the hang of the controls.
It is unlikely the transformer is bad, Some of these have a thermal fuse in the windings. Usually failed components overload the power supply and blow the main fuse.
Overdrive is the key to the crunchy metal sound. The only effect on that amp is reverb.
You may want to consider getting an overdrive pedal to get the sound you want.
The intergrated circuit is most likely gone out. Not much you can do, cost in repair is more than the amp. Check out the peavey vypyr, it's a great modeling amp for about $100.
This has several vacuum tubes and those are suspect. Take a pencil and tap the glass of the smaller tubes to look for noise changes. You may have to take off the tube metal shield to do this.
If you have got 15 years of life from the tubes that is great. Also suspect are electrolytic filter caps.
If you are not electronically adept, take it in for repair.
