Background:
I'm using Mogami W2893 quad (spiral shielded) mic cable for balanced headphone cable.
I'm using the AK pinout with 2.5mm TRRS connectors.

Question:
Just wondering what to do with the shielding on this cable?
Should it be folded back on the housing (eg. USB spec) or just ignored when soldering these connectors?
