Cardas 300B interconnects
Length: 2 feet
RCA terminations: Cardas GRMO
Cable: Cardas 300B Microtwin
These are my own homemade 300B interconnects. PercyAudio was the only place I could find the 300B interconnect cable in bulk. Total cost on these buggers was about $60 for the pair, although I would happily pay the extra to have Cardas terminate them for me as the Cardas RCAs were the most difficult plugs I've even had the pleasure of using.

Nice work Bryan - can't wait for you to create my din>phono cable!
So, ive wanted to try and recable some headphones, and while ive yet to get a pair to recable i did how ever make a cable. first attempt at it, my Y split got a bit messing doesnt look to bad, at least for a first attempt. As i wirite this, i realize i could have made the entire cable from 1 single piece of cable, but i went for a 3 piece set up.(main, left ear and right ear). i have no idea how it will sound, hoping someone here can tell me how "canare star quad" affects or effects the sound, better or worse. so with out further ado.
6ft. plug tip to driver solder points
canare star quad copper cable
switch craft straight plug
techflex and headshrink.

Infiskik, the Canare Starquad's definently on the warm side of the spectrum, even moreso than some of the other pure copper wires I've tried. Nice work BTW

Thanks! with your work that means enough to make it all seem worth it.
plus thank you for the info.
and you use mostly silver plated copper...where do you get that wire, i ordered smoe HGA silver braid for some interconnects or another headphone cable, and some bulk 22ga silver wire. but dont know where to get silver plated. id like to try it, and hope its cheaper then the HGA pure silver stuff.

Yeah it's a lot cheaper, you can expect to pay about 15-20 cents a foot or tops on silver plated copper in teflon wire (for 20-24 gauge). I generally find mine on Ebay where there seems to be an endless supply of it . Also Thrice had found that Belden makes it and it can be had on Markertek.
