If anyone’s interested I’m selling both suede and perforated pads
4-pin XLR wiring is pretty standard. See this post:what is the configuration 4 pin balanced xlr for ether 2 ?
Initial impressions of the suede pads are VERY positive for me. Replacing them scared the poo out of me .
This is the left stock pad. I swapped pads and followed the instructions to the letter. The right pad went on "better" than this and I really was extremely careful. It lined up properly, it feels secured... I really did the best I could do but this is what roughly half the left pad looks like what. What did I do wrong?
Thanks, LCMusicLover.4-pin XLR wiring is pretty standard. See this post:

Sorry, I guess you mean on the headphone side? That's not an 'XLR' connector (although it is 4-pin). Hence my confusionThanks, LCMusicLover.
I need to know the pin configuration in mrspeakers connector, I can’t find it on google.
Site is back up. Info about connector pinouts here:Sorry, I guess you mean on the headphone side? That's not an 'XLR' connector (although it is 4-pin). Hence my confusion
I saw a Reddit post which says the pinout is provided on their website, but I can't check, as the site appears to be down right now.
This is an excellent pairing.Additionally, I thought Jotunheim with the integral Modi MB card sounded very sweet with Ether 2.
Thank you very very much.Site is back up. Info about connector pinouts here:

ETHER and Alpha headphones all use the same pinout. We recommend purchasing at least one jack to make plug assembly easier, as the jack is used to unscrew and screw the plug shut. For your convenience jacks are available for purchase on our accessories tab.

- 1 = L+
- 2 = L- (or ground for single ended cables)
- 3 = open
- 4 = open

I liked the speed of the Ether 2, but I got the sense of a bit of treble veil.
I heard it only briefly from what looked like an Yggy and Rag 1
