Let me preface my question with a disclaimer that this is my first attempt at building any sort of cable, soldering, etc. So, thank you in advance for your help and patience.
I’m attempting to build a simple headphone extension cable with Canare star quad and Neutrix /4in on either end. I tried to follow the below image of the cable and it’s instructions which called for the following connections:
R-, L-, and the cable shield to the ground/TRS shield
R+ to the ring
L+ to the tip
Image with yellow labeling is of my attempt.
I’ve confirmed with a multimeter that this is the outcome of what I built. However, upon its first use I’m getting terrible STATIC. Sounds hollow, unusable. If someone could help me correct my work I would be very grateful. My apologies if my attempt/question is not well described. Thanks!
