I also recommend John's Silver Teflon Wire Shop.

I don't think Navships (John's Teflon Shop) has anything with a clear insulation.

The best option I have found is stripping wire out of Mogami W2893 (26awg). Only one of the 4 conductors is clear, though, so you are looking at $0.66 a foot (Redco.com). Not sure of other stranded coppers with clear insulations outside of the expensive ones like Nucleotide and TwCu.

I give that a try, thanks. atm it's housed in a leather case with my current amp and heavy ic.

That pic is just what I'm looking for, thanks.

*** Edit: One very important point, if you take measurements and solder while the DAP & AMP are paired, you can cause damage to the DAP or amp, please do not do this ... posibbly less than one second heat applications are ok, but don't blame me if you damage something ***

That's what I was planning to do, but I won't now obviously. I'll have to put together a wooden jig instead.

Edit: IIRC Captain Ødegård did a video on his website on "how to make" and an article in the news section of abi ...

Had to google his name to find his site. Now that's a creative guy. No video I could find, but I found his wooden IC. Very cool.

As much as I love John's wire for interconnects and occasionally as hookup wire, but sometimes the teflon insulation is just a bit too stiff for me. I'll probably grab some W2534. If I remember, I think it has 2 wires with the translucent insulation.

Speaking of using his wire, here's a quick cable I put together for an SFI fosterphone (click for terribly unfocused gigantic pictures):





Uses a Neutrik NP3C and an extra NYS231 barrel to cover to Y-Split

Does anyone know how to wire a TRRS connector? I'm having problems using what looks like a stereo PC Mic (the connector is TRS) with a Stereo Neutrik Female adapter that outputs to a Mono Jack. I'm only getting audio on 1 channel when used with the PC, but on the Astro MixAmp... I get the audio on both sides. Not sure how to fix this. Any ideas? Here is a quick pick of the current wiring setup.

The TRRS plug symbolizes the TRRS jack that is really there, I just couldn't find a corresponding picture.

I've purchase clear insulated cable from him before. If you don't see it on one of his pages, email him and he responds fairly quick. If he doesn't have it anymore he'll let you know or if he can get it ...

I'm actually mainly interested in a copper wire as opposed to silver plated (purely for aesthetics in this case). I'll shoot him an email, but I'm still looking for (ideally):
24AWG or smaller stranded copper wire in clear insulation for a reasonable price (I don't really need cryo treatment or for the wires to be dipped into the tears of children, or any of those luxuries)

I'd definitely consider Mogami W2534 then. 24AWG and 2 wires are clear, 2 are blue.

Just made a teeny tiny IC

 

[digi01]

i made two passive preamp for the cables.the module are cable category so i post here.
i named it cat walk.the module like a pretty cat walk on the cable

i add simple lpf & hpf on it for handy use.


two module,

working,

bottom view,i use smt parts.

Get Mogami 2434. It features two blue and two clear wires (both 24g). It's also cheap.

Soldered and hot-glued in place, across that angle/edge it's not possible to plug and unplug the cable. ugly, but efficient.

 

[apatN]

^ How about small pieces of heatshrink (for insulation) and then covering it up with adhesive heatshrink?

 

[dfkt]

You mean my contraption? I had to solder it in place, while it is plugged in - I don't see a possibility to use any cover over the cables, otherwise I couldn't have soldered it. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding you?
