After seeing the Multi-array braid by Ken, I decided that I needed to try it out myself. I wish I had something more interesting than these $1 Neutrik connectors to use though. Total length is just about 1.5ft.
Close up on the braid (6 wires)

Thanks The braid is really easy once you get it down, and it works for any even number of wires.
Quite honestly, despite the number of cables I've made and interest in the subject, I've never really been able to distinguish between cables. I focus more on making something durable and asthetically pleasing. I don't doubt that there is a difference, but I haven't heard it.

The copper wire used in the interconnects above was a birthday present actually, so I'm not sure where it's from. (I have the best friends ever. They gave me wire for my birthday! Think about it!)
Other sites that I've had very good experiances with: redco.com, takefiveaudio.com, wirecare.com, and navships on eBay.

that 6 conductor braid looks awesome! I too have been practicing with 6 and 8 conductor braids. Here is a mini-RCA cable I maid the other day. The cable is sleeved so it is hard to see the actual braid, but it has a very unique color to it that I think turned out very nice!
6 conductors SPC (2 blue, 2 yellow, 2 orange) at the 'Y' split I then braided each side in a standard 3 conductor litz braid. Sleeving is carbon techflex
