My latest...

Blue Canare Starquad (not that you could ever tell)
Neutrik RCAs/Neutrik mini
Nylon multifilament
Lots of heatshrink (I think the y-joint ended with 4-5 layers)

Thick cable Hembergler. I just got some nylon too, it makes the cable seem more elegant than Techflex.

The photo makes it appear a little bigger than it actually is, but not by much. If you press down on it, you can feel theres some empty space between the cable and the nylon. As for the y-joint, I lacked the proper size of 3:1 heatshrink, so I ended up using lots of 2:1.

Ahh I see, you must of gotten bigger than 1/4" nylon?
The 1/4" fits the GS-6 and StarQuad just right, maybe a little little bit loose.

Anyways, I've decided to put up a 'before' pic of the Profi RCA's I just received this past week... It's going to be cable mania in the near future:





Woot woot for Profi's, Boo boo for the small fortune it costed.

I see 22. *does out the math*

Wow, that was quite an investment for just RCA connectors. My orders are usually ~$150 (including shipping) for all sorts of stuff. I wish I had income.

Oh, and I was using 3/8th" nylon. I'll be getting 1/4th on my next order

VERY short mini-to-mini. 4-conductors, 4-nines silver + teflon. This was not easy to make!

Nice job phergus_25!


What wire are you using? Are you starting with a 4-wire Litz braid and then separating each L and R run into twisted pairs? Also, what kind of Techflex is that? Nice looking cable dude!
