markertek
or
west-lake electronics.

look up
switch craft 35hdrann on markertek and the 3.5 straight and right angles should pop up

and look up canare f-12 on west lake

west lake has cheaper canare connectors and marketek has cheaper switch craft connectors

I personally prefer switch craft connectors. slimmer straight plugs and superior solder terminals on the RA connectors.

the f-12 connectors look nice on the outside but have terminal dielectric that is fairly cheap and will melt if anything remotely hot touches it. heated flux will fry the f-12 dielectric :P

Wirecare is a good source for techflex. Plus they let you order smaller quantities.

wirecare is cheaper then cable organizer if you order in 25 foot lengths and above. they also ship super fast and have more selctions to choose from in 1/4" flex size then cable organizer.

Ive ordered from both companies before and like the increase in 1/4" selection and lower prices wirecare offers over cable organizer.

Hi,

I think we are straying off topic a bit, and would like to avoid hijacking the gallery thread with Grado mod questions

Id be happy to answer your questions but I believe youd be able to find all your answers here in the thread started by Darwin

http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=110431

that would be a better place to ask,

crazy... you should really take this conversation to the "How to make an interconnect" thread, also stickied in this forum. You may also find many of your answers there:

http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=52044

This thread is mainly for posting pictures of completed work and the praise and drooling that follows

Edit: jinx

It saves money in that people charge stupid amounts for cables you can DIY at home. Silver plated wire isn't that expensive, but companies who make them want to charge you $400/m for them ... Eichmann Bullets might cost $50, but companies charge $100 as their "optional extras"

etc etc etc

It doesn't save money, but you probably got a lot more for it. The only way to save money is to not spend it.
