After some encouragement form dallan I decided to attempt something crazy: cutting my HD800 cable and soldering in some XLR connectors. I have a soldering iron, solder, and a pair of old ICs with the XLR connectors. I plan on taking the XLR connectors off the cables and soldering them into the HD800 cable.
Without a DMM I'm flying a little blind, so I need some help. Anyone with firsthand knowledge or experience is welcome to help with advice or suggestions. I plan on practicing a little first, just to try my old, rusty soldering skills that never were very good at all.
1. Are the wires in the stock HD800 cable easily distinguished as a different color for L-R-Gnd?
2. If so, what are the colors that correspond to each?
For now, that's all I can think of.
