OK, I have to clean up this drool now ...

I'd love to get a mini-mini with that kind of cable and those connectors - can anyone make something like that? I'm in love with the teflon cable on my Sensas


I'd love to get a mini-mini made with that kind of cable. Is it possible?

Another ER-4p to ER-4s conversion cable custom made for member zdogg.

Carbon Techflex over Blue Star Quad
CUI female 3.5mm
Neutrix 1/4' male
Kester silver bearing solder



I must make comment that the conversion cable made with Star Quad sounds much better than Mogami in this application.

Finished up my cable for my PC. These two are a set: a 2.5' right angle mini to 1/4" female, and a 6.5' 1/4" extension, making for a total of just over 9'. More starquad, flex, and all switchcraft jacks, sealed off with clear PVC heat shrink.

In the background is my same mini extension from previously, though I have put some 3:1 clear heatshrink boots on it for added durability.

I finished my home work and had some free play time!

made a R/A mini for fun right now. Its a clone of a very popular mini cable. I was just experimenting, with the switchcraft right angles. Ill probably use it for my portable pcdp






Ive also finally finished the Y split.




I will have gallery pics up later today.

2nd attempt at 8-inch mini-mini cable.

Cheap canare cable and generic plugs.

Can anyone identify those plugs? I am curious what is it.
