Thanks!

I love the black/beige. I thought the gray Star Quad looked sweet, but the black/beige with blue Star Quad looks awsome. I didn't have enough blue S.Q. to do this recable. I getting ready to do another Ety conversion cable, since I've sold/traded all mine I've made (even the one I was using ). I'm going to do it in the Blk/Bge w/ blue S.Q.

BTW, Carbon/red S.Q. looks pretty sweet also

Default Cotton/silver/air Interconnect build

finally had time to link this stuff to my web site. Built these cables about a year ago and they still are in use. Keep impressing folks who have the big-$$$ cables in their systems and simply can't tell what "brand" my great cables are ;-)

http://didnt.doit.wisc.edu/audio/cab...r_ic/index.htm

The cable is based on the Chris Venhaus IC design, but I changed some of the contruction parameters after having some "durability issues" with the original design. Mostly the stiff Teflon tubing core he prescribes was causing my Eichmann plugs to rip from the wires. Also, the teflon coating directly on the wire in his recipe was a) expensive and b) just took forever to break in. Air was the answer, and cotton the material to get it done with. I use teflon tape to seal the air out but the conductors are only exposed to a few cotton fibers and mostly air.

My lastest Ety conversion cable. I made this one a little longer than the rest. This has got to be one of the nicest color combos I've found, IMHO. Sounds great.
