yeah i know, but i wanted durability and prettyness.... anyhow the conductors arn't all that large, its the shielding that makes up most of the mass.

not the prettiest recable... my freaking y-split was perfect before the nylon sleeving decided to slide out before I could finish heating it! Also lacked colored heat-shrink so I had to resort to electrical tape.









I used a 6 wire braid configuration. Two grounds and 1 signal. It's a 6 wire round braid split into two 3 wire braids.

I like that you took those with Pelican's Australasia LP as the backdrop. Great album, and the vinyl is really well presented.

I made a mini <-> mini interconnect for my Laptop and Cmoy.



It is made of 2 Neutrik 3,5mm plugs some spare wire I had lying around. Unfortunatly I burned the Techfelx when shrinking the tube.

My first set... I guess they're good enough



HGA silver braid under those sheaths, and the terms are HGA silver midline... spent a little more than expected, but they sound pretty damn good

Wow thanks! (takes his newfound haughtiness and buys some more cables )

I was so nervous/anxious/excited while doing this, and I was pleasantly surprised at how exact the lengths are... oops, guess I got lucky, I'll need to pay more attention next time so I can get the same result.
