Hi All

Just curious if anyone has bought/used Xin's right-angle mini to mini plug?

http://www.fixup.net/products/whitemini.htm

I'm thinking of getting one to use with my Ipod's Sik cable and plug it right into the amp, no need for another length of mini-to-mini

Anyone using it? Sound quality is ok?

thanks!

Uhh $20 for that? I'm guessing no one else makes one?

I have one and I think it works great. I had the same problem using the sik cable. The mini to mini together with the sik cable was too much cable. There was a group buy a little over a month ago. I think the cost ended up at $15. It's a pretty cool little connecter.

Right now I have the RatShack IC that came with my Superdual, I'm still shopping for a decent mini to mini IC that wont break the bank. I'm also considering building my own.

Norm's (of Headsave) mini-to-mini is very well built, sounds great, and is only $20. I just sold mine with my Go Vibe to another head-fier. I also had the Xin right angle plug but preferred using my mini to mini with my Ipod so sold the Xin to another guy who missed out on the group buy. If you post a WTB for it, you may find someone else who's decided they don't really need it after all.

HI: I use the XIN mini to mini cable with my portable minidisc and super mini amp and it sounds great. I bought a more exspensive diy cable that was real stiff and just gave it away and kept the XIN cable.

I'm using it with SiK din cable and Supermini. Well built and works great. One problem: right angle IC adds leverage to tha jack and sometimes causes intermittency problem (IC is sturdy but Supermini's jack isn't).
