I've been working on a couple of Apogee breakout cables recently. Here's the most recent one that includes RCA inputs and line outputs.

no offense but i was thinking the same thing, your old shoe lace sleeves were a lot cooler than this one for some reason. maybe its because their colors were better.. (red/black/etc)

none taken...

problem is the place where i bought those shoelaces have closed down. and i cant find them anywhere else

these (and some others) are the best i can find and even then its more like i stumbled on them. and the choices are ridiculously scarce.

i also have some with hearts on it and some teddy bears etc etc... those are ones that my GF bought...so naaaaaaaahhh...id rather use the latest one lol

Well I got my stuff in today, I think I should have gotten different wire. I bought 26awg solid silver wire from navships on ebay, but I think its a bit too thin, and it doesn't seem very flexible, should I get 22, 24 awg? solid or stranded? I'd be using it to make IC's and headphone cables..

It's not too thin for IC's and headphone cables. You could use and even smaller gauge and still be fine.

Well, I sliced my finger open(long story) burned three fingers because I'm a klutz, and it took me an hour, but I finally got my first cable done, a 5" mini-mini. I used silver plated copper wire from navships and gold plated cryo treated neutrik plugs from takefiveaudio.
