Skullcandy Aviator Dampening

I decided to do one myself... putty around the edge, and I cut up some small thin felt disks and stuck them on the back of the driver. Isolation is much improved, and bass just feels cleaner. I'm liking the sound of these. There's a V shape for sure, a pretty strong warm tilt, good soundstage and "airiness" to the higher end, though I think maybe something funny is happening in the treble because snares/hihats are nice and sharp but feel a little "off" somehow. 
 

 
Something I just barely noticed; in the hole in the middle of the driver is a piece of foam. You can pull it out to experiment with the sound. I left it in.

Sorry I don't, but it's really not hard to pull the cup off and take a look yourself.

LOL yea thts the problem.....

I was rewiring my headphones late at night when suddenly I lost my patience and yanked the cable from the driver, really stupid of me.

I'm sure I won't really have trouble rewiring later on when I have time. But if I were able to see a diagram of the stock wiring or picture it would save me some time.

Do you still own these headphones? Thx

No, I don't have them anymore. Are you just trying to figure out which wire is ground? It should be the copper coloured one. You can double check with a multimeter.

Maybe get a ceramic soldering iron, it heats up faster...
 
Good chance you ripped the microscopic coil wire off at the same time so now its time to pickup some headphones with a broken headband that are in need of a driver transplant.
