    DIY Cable Gallery!!

    Two projects I did this weekend :) Made 6' long paracord sleeved balanced cable for my audezes.  Was a pain to sleeve the paracord.     Modded my wife's ath-m50s to detachable with 3 pin mini XLRs and made a blue paracord sleeved cable for her as well.

    It was just some mogami 2534 that I stripped. I just use the clear cables inside for unsleeved cables like that and the blue cables for paracord sleeved ones. It was one of the cheapest ways to get cables for me.

      It was a rather scary project to do with the drilling into the dt880s, but turned out fun in the end.  I used redco's sockets I think, I ordered them a while back and haven't touched the project till recently.  It's not that close to the driver baffle, I think it's just the angle of the photo

    Made my DT880s dual entry removable cable (4 pin mini XLRs) so I could use the same cable for my audezes.   Had to make a balanced cable for these cans.  Using some OFC copper, neutrik XLR plug and some chinese mini xlrs.

    Use a multimeter to test for continuity?

    That is most likely the case, I think the only balanced 3.5mm TRRS is some obscure hifiman one.

    I believe 750 paracord should fit that. You should be able to find it on eBay or from a quick Google.

    How do you guys get paracord sleeved cables through a tight connector? I can always get the cable through but the paracord always gets snagged n pulls off the cable as I try to thread it through

    Can one sleeve uninsulated cables with paracord to make a braided cable? Or will the cables short?

    How come you used 6 conductors over 4? How'd you solder them. I'm about to make one for myself but was thinking of just 4 cables

    Yeah neutrik connectors are great on a budget, usually cheaper than the other big names

    it's pretty easy to do if you have the right equipment.  There's a lot of youtube tutorials that could teach you how to do it yourself.

    When making a round braided cable for full sized headphones is 24 awg or 28 awg preferred?  Are there any advantages for the above two?

    I'm about to recable my audio technicas ath m50s.  The current cable has a jack that is 1/4" but can be twisted off to become a 1/8" jack.  I was wondering where I could find such a plug to use in a new cable? Preferably in Canada of course. Or could i salvage the existing connector?

    HiFiman HE-500 (HE as in High End) Proving to be an enjoyable experience in listening.

    Unfortunately I don't know anyone with good soldering skills nor do I possess the skills. So I was hoping someone else would be able to do it.
