Found this while thrifting. The cable is for a sennheiser hd 203 headphones. Even having the headphones I cant find anything about this cable online.

~~I can also confirm that's a 4 pin XLR cableπŸ‘~~

Edit:
Please see the comment chain below, my initial guess seems to be wrong after searching online again

Looks like a proprietary 4pin XLR connector. Search for "Sennheiser 4 pin cable" if you need a replacement.

Might be a 4 pin M8 plug (sensor /actor cable) given the size. I think xlr is larger.

Reading the description already is more likely though.

https://www.microridge.com/products/mahr-federal-gage-cable/ <-- Likely the wrong size, but is a reference anyway

It's an M-something. M8, like you said, is more likely.

And yes, XLR is larger. I use them for my audio stuffs.
