So I have this hyper exotic cable laying around ...DIY an LOD

So I have two kinds of VERY different, and stupidly expensive cable laying around my house ... and I start thinking of making some DIY LODs ...

I have a few feet of 26ga, rectangular solid core, teflon coated conductors taken from a pair of $25,000 Tara Labs speaker cables. I also have some 24ga cotton coated 7n solid core silver wire. Super annealed and cryo treated.

But I cringe when i think of soldering those stupidly tiny connectors to this wire.

I bet I would be willing to trade some of my VERY expensive wire to someone, in exchange for their making me a LOD with each of the wires ... Anyone interested ?

a little less quick might be less confusing

Alright, let him do it at his own pace. I'm still intrigued.

LOL ... I originally had a 16ft pair of speaker wires, then moved into a new house that allowed much shorter speaker wires. I had Tara re-terminate them at their shorter lengths, and they sent back the excess wire they cut off. I have made about 10 pairs of UNBELIEVABLELY great sounding interconnects, and now have a few feet left.
