Although I dont have the any of the balanced RSA amps at the moment I believe its the same

Attached is a pic of the connector pinouts for reference to where each specific pin number as the connector is used primarily as a camera connector

I'm 99% certain it is, and the cabling FAQ backs that up. ALO wouldn't be doing themselves favors by coming up with their own pinout -- there are plenty of other four-element connectors they could have used if they wanted to be different.

That said, if you want to be sure, contact ALO directly to confirm.

Try Lunashops if you're not in the USA.

I make my cables more "by the books" than most people.

The bottom is a balanced 1/4" TRS extension for headphones primarily.

L-4E6S 12' (might be 15')

Neutrik NP3X-B male 1/4" TRS

Neutrik NJ3FC6-BAG female locking 1/4" TRS

TechFlex 1/4" Nylon Multifilament sleeving

The two on top are

Mogami Neglex 2534 Quad

Neutrik Profi male cinch connectors

There are two more pairs of Neutrik Profi males for whatever else I might need later on.

For anyone who hasn't seen how awesome these Profi connectors are, they have the standard 3 jaw chuck style cable clamps, and spring loaded ground contacts. When inserted they also clamp onto the outside of the female connector.

I won't say if they are fakes or not, but here are some pictures of differences between ones i bought from Oyaide and ones from Lunashop.

On the angled one, you can see the mine has a light plue tube around the solder contacts, while on the straight one, you can see that mine has part of back of the left solder pin covered in the black plastic.

Notice how the ground solder tab is also gold plated on the Lunashop one, for the angled plug.

Lunashop do say the following on the listing, (Original item ,not a copy or clone)

You know what they say about the price being too good to be true.

Didn't another fellow earlier in the thread confirm that the Lunashops Oyaides are fakes?

Sweet! Pics of the internals of those Profi's? Pretty please?

Edit: I just noticed your username and laughed.
