Very nice! A 1/8th » RCA in that configuration would go well with an iPod...

cable making is an addicting hobby and very expensive.
Have you noticed any sonic changes with swapping out your cables?

I believe that the silver is much clearer and a cleaner sound than the oxyfuels but a little shy on bass. Perhaps it will come with burn in. either way very satisfying knowing that there my own creation.

I think those plugs are just brass with no plating. Not sure if you want them on high end cables.
