DIY Cable Gallery!! - Page 11

Unfortunately I don't like the sound

Lacks of dynamic, I guess this HF cable is not good for audio, too tightly shielded

Must try again with bare naked silver in teflon

bpribadi / What brand connnectors are you using with those...very clean?!

Well sometimes you don't know till you try (never know where the next big thing will come from). At least the look pretty.

PS - I second the question about the connectors.

Ooopppsss sorry, forgot about the connectors

Don't know what the brand, looks like OEM connectors (both RCA and mini jack). Bought in Sim Lim Tower, Singapore.

Can anyone tell me if the Beldon magnet wire is oxygen-free copper? If it isn't, is there a similar wire available that is?

Fantastic braiding job, bpribadi.

woops wrong thread

Colours are a little off in the pictures due to lighting conditions. I need to get a polarizing light for picture taking soon. LOL..

my first DIY cable go,

cat5e cable, nuetrik mini's, metal braid sheilding

looks cool and sounds pretty darn good imo

is that solid core cat5e wire? I made some almost exactly like that (in fact exactly like that, except with blue flexo and heatshrink on top) and the wires snapped after a few months.

My bad if this has already been answered which it most likely has(I didnt read many of the posts, just gawked at the pictures), but how much do stuff like this cost? Was thinkin about picking up an amp for my portable, maybe an SR-71, and might soon thereafter get some cables made up. Maybe the canare starquad with straight 1/4" to 1/4" connectors, and where might one go to get something like this made?

To be honest. who really cares if the plug looks ugly? Your not going to sell it right? As long as it suits your needs then it is OK

SR-325 re-cable.

4 runs of 20 AWG silver-plated wire (2 per driver).
Vampire Wire 1/4" connector
plus flex-tech and some heatshrink.
