Audio-Technica M40x and iPod Classic

Would the "Rode SC3 3.5mm TRRS to TRS Adaptor" (on Amazon) work?

At the risk of stating the obvious, have you tried pulling the big plug off?

Most headphones nowadays use a normal headphone jack with a guitar-lead-style adapter that's part of the plug and pulls off or unscrews.

Google suggests yours do too.

No, this is the default jack

You're absolutely certain?

Because this appears to be a picture of the default jack, which appears like it would just plug straight into an iPod once you pull the end off it.

Yup. The audio only functions if you don't plug it in all the way, but once you do, then the vocals become drowned out and the rest of the audio is muddled.

This is somewhat baffling, because that's caused by having no audio ground connection, and the iPod has an absolutely standard headphone jack, with the ground exactly where you'd expect it to be.

The best I've found on the subject is that the M40x is TRRS, and the iPod is TRS, but that wasn't about the M40x in particular. I'm not sure what else could be causing the problem.

And nevermind, I'm just a dumbass. The cable wasn't locked into the headphones.

Thanks for the help, anon, i appreciate your time spent on my stupidity.
