I am planning to build my first own headphone cable for my modded DT770pro with 3Pin mini XLR connector and need help with soldering.
I bougth the following components for it:
My problem here is that the cable has 5 pieces instead of the 3 cables on the drawings.
Do i understand this correctly that I have to twist the ends of the black/blue cable and the ends of the red/white cable together and then connect them with flux and solder,
so that it becomes one cable end and then follow the guide in the drawings using the new 3 cables?
My first attempt with the cable today unfortunately went a bit wrong, I have combined black/red and blue/white, I have sound but always on both sides, so in my test sound left or right alone does not work and the sound is very quiet.
Before I make my next attempt as described above, I thought it would be best to ask the experts before I waste time again.

- Cable)Mogami 2893 Microphone cable, Neglex Quad Miniatur, 4.8mm
