DIY Cable Gallery!!

[Captain Ødegård]

The cable that comes with the goldring dr150's is 3 meter or something, so I made a new one from canare cable and neutric straight plugs. This one's 130CM, same as i shortened the dt231's cable too, suits me fine

looks great i hate 3mcables to

Here are my current works. They are still not as good as your guys', but I am getting better. I am going to have to heatshrink the mini to RCA again, because it came out bad.



K81DJs recabled with 26AWG SPC. I decided to use these as my dynamic cans until I can buy my HD 580s. They suit me well for now. I don't know if it is that noticeable, but the Neutrik termination is a little bent, but I have no idea what causes it. I will fool with it later.


This is a simple mini to RCA that I built that serves as the input from my source into my crossfeed/amp. I used 8 wires or SPC in the braid.


Mini to mini that is about 8 inches long. Used for iPod > Amp.


Here is a 12 wire SPC braid that I use for Crossfeed > Amp. I am very happy with the turn out, but I did not think of it being too small with that Y-split. It tends to pull my crossfeed to one side.

I am about to order more supplies so I am going to try my hand at multifilament. It looks a lot cleaner. Also, I would like to find some awesome 4:1 heatshrink, because the shrink I use does not really grab the cable much.

You better buy those 580s while you can. They are getting harder to find.

^ +1. Going to get one too before they're all gone (or when prices goes up)!

Last Saturday i recabled a Stax RS-5 Gold and replace it with original stax cable which is twice as fat as the stock cable...

I've been thinking of using a spare barrel for a split or for covering up some resistors, but it seems kind of weird. Can anyone describe how theirs worked out?

[drizek]

Very very nice pcwork. I wish I had bought that silver neutrik plug for my im716 retermination, but markertek was out of stock.

I used the black/gold one. I think I might cover it in white heatshrink later on, but for now all the heatshrink I have is radioshack stuff that not only wont fit over it, but looks kinda crappy too. I cut off about 6 inches of cable from it, it used to be way too long before and would tangle easily. The only thing im worried about is the weight of the neutrik connector. I used clear heatshrink over the wires instead of the included rubber thingy to hopefully make it stronger.

This time my pictures turned out a lot better. I should have used the macro mode on my camera last time.



And here is a 6.5 foot mini-mini I built for connecting my desktop on the floor to the amp on my desk. It is the same 26awg red SPC I used in my first build. It took me over two hours to braid it, but I think it turned out well and I dont notice any mistakes in the braiding.

drizek that's very neat cable...
i infact drooling with the red cable/black plug combination...it's looks so nice..
i must make one too... =P

75ohm impedance adapter for my KSC75

this is the shortest ever i think i can built..
