Good TS to RCA converters?

I've got an amp incoming for my Presonus Central Station which has TS/TRS 1/4 phone jack outputs. I need a converter with a male mono 1/4 plug at one end and a female RCA at the other. Does anyone know of any decent options for this? If not, I'll probably just end up getting Mogami gold TS to RCA patch cables.

I custom ordered from BJC (the number of manufacturers who make TS > RCA seems real low).

Nice rig, Mher6. Maybe I'll get ahold of BJC to see how their pricing is. Do you think that'd be a better option than Mogami?

I used to own the Behringer Ultracurve Pro DEQ2496, had mono 1/4" outputs.

I ran to Rat Shack and got some cheap 1/4" to female RCA adapters to use with standard IC's, until i could have a custom pair of IC's made.

Sound was quite good, even great. I got some nice cables made DIY, using some very nice silver and gold alloy (gold alloy on positive, silver on negative) wire. The sound was also great, and yet only marginally better than the other cable (Tritium Gold IC's) attached to the adapters, if at all....

My point is: if you already have a nice pair of IC's, maybe an adapter is all you need....I ended up selling my custom cables to a friend who also had the Behringer, and I used the Tritium's and other IC's with the adapters happily until I ended up selling my Behringer.

Pulsar makes a pretty good TS to RCA cable: http://www.pulsartech.net/product/P220PR_A12

I'm using one with some of my PC equipment with no problems at all. I don't really like using the short adapters because the extra bulk sticking out the back makes for a nice big lever on the jacks, and doesn't seem as secure as plugging the cable directly in.
