I had a "small" incident with my ZMF headphones, and the cable snapped from the jack completely. I do have some soldering skills, but have no clue how exactly to connect the wires and where to solder them. Can someone please help me out, cause it's a complicated cable consisting of 4 x 2 wires.
Thanks a lot.

Here's a photo of the wires and the jack.

Perhaps contact @zach915m about this?

Thanks for the suggestions. I already tried contacting ZMF directly over email, but haven't received a reply.

Zach always gets back to emails but can take a few days especially these days. Their order volume right now is through the roof. good luck!

Hopefully he'll respond. Thought there would be someone else, who has an idea, or has the same cable and can just unscrew it and check the connections?

So no one with such cable, that will be able to just unscrew the jack and see how the connections are made?

You'll need a multimeter to chase the correct wires back to the headphone mini XLR

What headphones are those as they just don’t look like a ZMF cable but haven’t seen his old ones .

I think I've been responding to this through email. Unfortunately this cable will need a multimeter to diagnose which lead goes where as it's one of our pre-made cables from a supplier (stock cable). Once you figure out the + and - it's fairly straight forward. TIP = Left, RING = Right and the sleeve is NEG. For the tiny XLR 1 is + and 3 is -

Hope that helps.

And yes I am usually a couple days behind on email, we are working on response time but I am also trying to keep headphones flowing out of the shop. WE will however be moving to a new larger shop soon (will do a video tour) and everything will be much faster.

Topic was opened couple of days before you responded Zach, so all good. After your help (and some other head-fiers who PMed me), I think I got it right and will be able to fix it myself.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to respond!
