I looked at the AKG K7XX. It’s wired as single-ended stereo. Three connectors- Left +, Right + and ground -. 

I believe this is the adapter cable you're looking for-

Or this one-

Lots of other choices on the interwebs.

I'm trying to connect an AKG K7XX (headphones) which is:
* Mini-XLR Male
* Stereo

I'm trying to plug it into a V-MODA BoomPro (audio+microphone) which is:
* 3.5mm Male
* Stereo (I think)

I don't know about single-ended or balanced but this will go into a laptop's 3.5mm headphone output port

A better description of what you are trying to do will help immensely.

Subject: [sudo-discuss] How to make a Mini-XLR to 3.5mm cable?

Hi all, I've been trying to find a Mini-XLR Female to 3.5mm Female adapter but I haven't been able to find one. There were a few on Amazon but the reviews all said the left and right audio were reversed...

My current idea is to instead purchase a Mini-XLR Female replacement head and solder on a 3.5mm Female head with attached cable. But I see different cable styles attached to the 3.5mm, there is a 2 cable version and also 3 cable version? And it sounds like this is Mono vs Stereo? But the XLR talks about "Ground, Hot, and Cold" and I can't tell how this maps onto the 3.5mm cabling? If we have any people knowledgeable about audio cabling would love help untangling this mystery, thanks!
