Putting a new end on a XLR cable


I have a pair of Tara Labs 3 meter interconnects and I’ve lost a wire connection in the left cable. (It’s playing softer than the right one) For the life of me, I can’t figure out how they built it so I can take the end off, re solder the connection and put it back together. If I can’t figure out how to do it myself, My other options are cutting the end off and buying a good XLR plug or sending it back to the company and potentially paying as much as $500 for the repair.

Anyone here know how to take apart a Tara Labs XLR cable?

Thanks in advance.

A local technician should be able to easily handle this repair for far less than $500. Where are you located?

Also, if the connection between the conductor and XLR connector has failed, you would likely get no sound rather than a "softer" sound. Are you sure the cable is the problem?
