turner, do you use that setup in your pocket or purely a bag? i ask because, a cable that short, and fat with starquad and techflex isn't likely to be very flexible and im interested to know if its too inflexible for pocket use....

oh man, this is so inflexible it isn't even funny. I only use it for desktop use...for on the go I use the cardas cable. And to tell you the truth...as far as my diy cable goes I can't hear a difference...I just use it because I spent the time and money on it.

I'm just curious, what kind of soldering stations do you guys use? I want to get into cable DIY this summer and I plan on getting a Hakko Clone, along with all kinds of cable goodies

btw regarding flexibility,

skip the star quad and braid 24-26 awg cabling.

the braid has enough "give" to bend all over the place.

Here's my first cabe I've ever done. Well besides a practice one I guess but that was pretty dang ugly. I'm using this to go from my Audigy 2 to my reciever:



Had a little mis-hap with the tech-flex and the heatshrink on the mini end. Oh well doesn't affect the sound at all!
