Actually I think Hevimees is right on that one, with a 2 conductor cable, mADmAN must have used to 2 conductors for signal which leaves the shield to be the ground which needs to be connected on both ends.

Originally Posted by mADmAN yeah im using 2 conductor cable as signal and the shield as ground. i just tested it and although theres sound...it was horrendous! no bass at all... and the vocals could hardly be heard. think ill go back and terminate the ground and see if theres any difference. |

Originally Posted by Hevimees You can connect the shield at the end which is meant for the signal's source, which I assume is the mini side. This won't do any difference in terms of sound quality, but it should provide better shielding from interferences. If you connect the shield at both ends, it won't do you any good. |
