I don't think they're LOKs OR WBTs (probably copies). I already have WBTs and i'm looking for cheaper connectors to mess with.

I think you're dead-on. Good eyes!

BTW, aren't their "RCA Male plugs "Tiffany" style (6mm)" rather Oyaide looking?

If you actually look, the strain relief is different, my barrel is longer, and there are no cheesy red/white stripes. If you guys want info just pm me, this is a picture thread, I want to see more pics!

Wow, I get tired of doing it after making a pair of RCA's, let alone as many as you did in that picture...

Fangmasterflex, if I can make it out, I see that you cranked the Profi's shut tight. Looking good!

Well its my first, its not shielded cable infact its regular 22g stranded, however it sounds better than the $3 ones you can buy anywhere and it does not seam to pick up any interference, works great with my cmoy.

I snipped part of the plastic (strain relief?) that goes inside the barrel. That was the only way I could get the barrel to close all the way with my Starquad + Techflex. =T
