Is there anyone who could make me a short and simple mini-to-mini cable to connect my ipod dock to my amp for a decent price? If you are interested please shoot me a PM or reply here. Thanks
Really simple 4-pin XLR to stereo plug for running K1000's from headphone amps. Just to give it a try, so far I feel that it's lacking power on a headphone amp.
Recently made a cable for a local Head-Fi friend. It's a 15' TRS headphone extension.
Silver Plated Copper
Neutrik 1/4" Male
Neutrik 1/4" Female
Black Nylon
Also made a 1/8" to 1/4" adapter to replace the crappy ratshack one I've been using. Too bad the ratshack one already reemed the jack on my Vision. The vinyl fits perfectly in the Neutrik and also gives the cable a much more solid feel. This one'll be used with my Toshiba for portable use.

I recabled my K81DJ with braided CAT6 wires and shrink tube. I have changed back to the old cable again, since the cable was too stiff, but I'll attach an old picture anyway.
It was a pain to get Gotham GAC-3 cables into the TA3F connectors, since the cable is a little bit to thick. But the cable is very flexible. The TRS connectors are Daikei Denshi.
This is my DIY LOD. I used a connector from RIDAX and a Gotham GAC-3 cable.
Here's my first (and probably last) Cardas 1 x 21.5 awg. Coaxial and Eichmann copper bullets. Nice little 1ft IC to replace the thin VenHaus below it
Cardas
Chris VenHaus variant using a thin pure cotton rope, 24AWG 99.99% silver wrapped in double helix around it, covered with teflon tape. Short IC I had running between the AlienDAC and SOHA.
The new Cardas has more bass and somewhat less clarity, but maybe that'll change with burn-in.
Last IC I made for sale, but the buyer backed out last second so it's joining the vault. VenHaus design, using very THICK cotton rope, 2ft long. Still, it's almost as flexible

wow those are some monster thick cables! really like them, those WBT clones are sort of cheap though. Why didnt you get some nice LOKs or something?
Just finished this mini-mini. I wanted to try something new, so I pulled out some spc and tried out an eight wire braid. It came out okay but I need thicker awg wire to make the braid tight. At least it sounds good though! I'll try it with my silver wire once I get the braid down.
