Anyone make Jon Risch's conector cables?
I'm going to try making my own interconnects using Jon Risch's "balanced connectors" type cables. Has anyone here made this cable? It would seem a very high quality cable at a modest price. I for one am unable and unwilling to spend $$$$$ for interconnects.- Dan H
