Default IC for iPhone and Stax sr-001.

I'm looking for a high quality interconnect for my iPhone (1/8" slim) to the STAX SR-001 (1/8" standard). I prefer something about less than 6" long.

Any recommendation ?

I made a nice one out of solid core copper for my iPhone, but it was a PITA

What kind of plug did you use ?

That's cool if you could make one yourself. Any picture ?

I used my dremel to ground down a neutrik plug. I couldn't find a plug small enough to fit.

I don't have any pics

Would the grinding expose the internal components ? I wish if you have a picture. I might build my own with a ground plug.

no worries. Be careful doing it and take a little at a time.

Cantsleep made me a pure silver mini-mini. I used a small file and reduced the outside diameter of the shoulder all the way to the thread line (Neutrik plug).

Now, I can truly enjoy the sound quality of the iPhone with my SR-001. I think the SQ on the 3.5 output jack of the latest ipod/iphone is very respectable.
