Cable continuity.

[Gandtee]

According to Youtube I should get continuity with a multimeter between corresponding terminals on headphone cables. I don't get continuity on my left side tips of my cable yet I get sound? Why, when I'm not getting no continuity? I'm an ignoramus in electronics. Simple please.

So you do have continuity then.

 

Assuming the double negative was an error it depends upon how your cans are wired internally.

 

For starters what connector(s) do you have?

 

And how many ohms is "continuity"?

Thanks for the reply Crossy. My son has checked and says it's the way my headphones are wired up. He gave me another cable, which has continuity and the sound was exactly the same, They 'cans 'are jabra that my nieces treated me to some time ago and I nurse them. Not the nieces. The cans. Thanks for your trouble.
