Minelab Manticore Headphone Upgrade

I really enjoy my Minelab Manticore, but HATED the ML105 headphones that came with it. So I tore down the ML105s and moved the guts over to the shell from a broken pair of Sony WH1000-XM4s. This gave me 2x increased battery life, better sound quality, better noise isolation, better comfort, smaller pack size, and better weather sealing. Plus now these Minelab x Sony Franken105s finally fit the Manticore name. A full breakdown, including wiring diagrams, is available on the metaldetectingformum here: and on the iratemetaldetectors forum here:
