im not sure if i have ever posted in this thread, but i just finished a couple cables. i dont post here because my digital camera sucks pole.
first: recable rega rb-300 arm, with Cardas 4X33ga tonearm wire.
a couple DIY interconects, in various grades of ugly. a couple with the big fat cards interconect wire, a couple with the thinner cardas wire, and then one with 30ga solid core SPC in a 2-conductor ribbon design. there are a couple with SPC, which actually look the best (twisted pair of 22ga, with shoelace covers) but sadly i listen with my eyes closed... i think they are in a drawer.
my DT-770 with 4-strands of SPC and a neutrik 4-pin xlr.
my akg k240 sextet with cardas and a neutrik 4-pin
grado HP-2, these had a turd-house (radio-shack) 1/8" plug on the end of the JGSUWBRC when i got them, so i saw no harm in 4-pinning them. mikhail was impressed when i plugged straight into the balanced PPX3 at the nyc spring meet. i re-terminated with 4-pin SPECIFICALLY so i could plug straight into that beastly good amp. i also like the sleek appearance of the 4-pin with its versatility.
OOH, and a power cord (3ft long) for whatever i have thats 3 ft from my power conditioner. in hindsight, i only NEED 2 ft, but 3 ft will reach my phono stage when i build it.

Latest project: I was getting sick of running out of outlets so I decided that rather than build an extension cord to get to one thing I'd build one that could get to four things.
It's built using 12/3 commercial grade AC cable (300V) and various outlet parts sourced from Home Depot.
I also built a little K1000 adapter for a friend.
Just 4 stranded copper wires encased in cotton sleeving using a Canare TRS and Neutrik XLR.
Posted these in another thread, but I figured what the heck, I can put them here too. These are my shiny new Denon D2000's. Recabled with 4 stands of 20AWG teflon coated silver. Terminated with a nuetrik 1/4 jack and sleeved in nylon multifiliment. I chose to forgo a strain relief because that would have required drilling, and I wasn't so keep on doing that right away. May take care of it later, but its not really necessary, so I don't worry about it.
