Interesting 4 wire litz mini interconnect. I used equal awg SCCw/T for each positive lead (blue), one larger awg run for the negative (purple) and a second very small awg wire also connected to the negative (yellow). the second one was purely for looks, but I figured it would not hurt anything, and I wanted the yellow "tracer" to visually show off the litz braid. looks pretty slick under the carbon PET.





What do you think?

I just made a 1 foot mini to mini cable. Consists of 3 22gauge silver plated copper wires and a silver plated shield. All contacts are covered in liquid electrical tape.

This is my latest Paranoid mini to mini cable. Smallest ever, like no other, custom fit for my SMV3, 4gb nano and my Paranoid Ipod-Nano line out adapter. Connectors are Neutrik and cable is made out of high quality cooper stranded wires. All nicely wrapped in Neon green Techflex. No stress on the device connectors as you can see (because of size measurements :veryevil: ) :k1000:

Here is a cable I made month ago, but never got around to taking pictures of it because of where it is and I didn't want to take my system apart again. It’s made of 24 gauge silver plated copper wire covered in Teflon. Each is shielded with a silver plated copper shield. The DB9 connector has copper pins (very hard to find) and on the other end HGA silver RCA connectors. I do love this cable.
