First i just want to say that i live in Australia and that i can not order from Headroom, TTVJ etc unless the store has international shipping at decent rates.
So atm, kinda stuck since theres not many retailers in Australia that sell this kind of stuff.
From the same seller they sell another version they are both the same price. It seems they are all the microshar cables? Are they real? They have the B2/W2 where b/w is black and white. Then they have the B4/W4 as below
stevenkelby, a known cable maker on these forums (under that user name). He'll make a cable of comprable and most likely better quality for what I'd consider a much more reasonable price, and moreover will make it to your specifications.
That's the way to go. There are other well known cable makers, but he's in Australia as well, so it'll save time and shipping costs. I have two of his LODs and they're of exceptional quality.
what would be the best point of contact for him? just a PM? also what do his LODs look like?
i want something that looks a bit nice too.
@lil' Knight i take it that you are using that? how is the build quality? it looks a bit.... weak? it is a good price though
PM, yeah.
They look like whatever you ask him to make it look like. That's the beauty of getting one made. The other thing is that most commercially available LODs are way too long to practically use with a portable setup. They get in the way. It's good to be able to get one at a proper length.

I don't think that LOD is week It's is ultra-flexible and look cool.
Steve is always a nicest headfi-er IMO I can do the interconnects and LODS myself but still decide to get one from him His cables are really works.
About the cryo wires, I've tried recable my KSC35 with Jena cryoed, and the result is really, really satisfied. It improves the detail which goes away in the KSC35 and open the soundstage very wide. Moreover it's very flexible.
