I think you are much better off going with a Fiio L3 cable...It's only about 5-6" and made by a reputable company, for roughly the same price...

From Head-Direct the L3 is only about $6 IIRC.

EDIT: $4.95 + $5 Shipping

Fiio L3 is the best deal for a good LOD.  I wish it was a little shorter with an angled 3.5mm connector.

So the fiio l3 is the way to go?

It's said to be very good quality for the money, and I wouldn't get a "homemade" LOD from anyone I hadn't heard about on Head-Fi, such as Average_Joe or Pdupiano...

good point. It looks good, but looks can be deceiving, don't judge a book by its cover etc...

14",too f!~#$ long. Unless you have a  total desktop unit you will struggle with the length. Buy the L3. 10cm extra length can be looped with small nylon tie. Highly recommended.I have 2.
