Question Cable replacement for steelseries arctis 1

[Alisilarbi]

the aux connector got bitten by my cat. I haven't been able to find a replacement cable for the headphone online but i have found an aux splitter i think it's called. The cable is long enough to be used as replacement, but then i have to cut the female aux connector. One odd thing about the headphone is the bitten cable i can count only small cables, but in the headphone when i open it up i found 5 cables souldered to the headphone, the grey one i don't know where it came from.

This headset?

I suggest that you take two or three photo's of the headset showing the "small cables".

Fan out to show cables and colors. Hopefully standard....

You may be able to replace the cable by resoldering and/or resplicing.

However the key is to properly map pins and cables to match before soldering and/or splicing.

What audio device are the headphones being connected to?

Pinouts can and do vary.

I recommend splicing in order to 1) avoid soldering issues and 2) provide more "do over" leeway if a spliced connection proves wrong or faulty.

yes exactly that headset.

I have taken photos and uploaded them on this link as you suggested "

I took the headset before to a neaby phone repair shop and he tried to resplice the cable with another cable (looking very similar the one i have), but after i tried them on i noticed right away that they became unusable since the sound was jumping constantly and very rapidly from the left to the right ear and vice versa. It seemed like someone is messing with the sound customized and sliding the full song from the left to the right side.

I also have read the article and from my understanding when soldering the new cable on it i have to match the colors with the correct placement is that right ?

And as you recommend splicing, what do you recommend a good way to splice the cables correctly so it wouldn't tear off with time as i travel with this headset a lot.

Thank you a lot for your reply. Link to the photos =>
