Lovely work, did you take any pictures of them opened up? Quote:

Happy New Year fellow DIYers, my favourite braiding instructions site is this one:   http://www.seekyee.com/Slings/howtos.htm

Lovely job on those Beyers, look forward to seeing what you do with them later on! It's funny there's been a discussion about them as I've just shortened, sheathed and reterminated my 1350s (see below). Quote:   Quote:   Quote:   This x100! The wire and chunky jack are a...

Problem solved, I hadn't scanned for my library correctly - my fault! Now switching perfectly as before. Will BitPerfect continuously monitor the directory it found for iTunes (or does it even need to)? Thanks for a wonderful app as always and have a great Christmas. Quote:

Hi Agentsim, having some issues with the auto sample rate switching this evening. Haven't used my external DAC (TEAC UD-H01) in a while so not sure which update to attribute this to. I know it was working fine about 2 months ago though. Have you any suggestions with Audio Midi Setup and/or...

Wow that braiding is sublime! Great job  Quote:

Good to see Fostex appear to have thickened the Dx000 pads to nearly J$/Lawton Audio levels with these, maybe they looked at what head-fi users have been doing? Quote:

I think these are the ones you'll need: Lunashops 'Belkin' 3.5mm Plug. I recently used them for a very similar project and you can do lots of nice things with the finish (e.g. spray paint, brushed metal), I think white sprayed or brushed could look really good here, or just as they are - if you...

Yeah I got one too, really happy with it! Did you get the mini toolkits they had as well? Quote:

Thanks! It's Halford's own brand stuff, about the equivalent of $10 for a 500ml can. I just rubbed it down with wet 'n' dry (can't remember what grit sorry!), wiped it over with isopropanol to degrease and then sprayed. I think it should be durable, I gave it three coats, and the paint is...

Thanks Frank, yeah Luke sent me one with the aluminium tube, decided to go for that instead of neutrik barrel in the end as it's a little lighter for IEM use.   Few other bits I've been meaning to post:   I sleeved shortened and reterminated a HD25 cable for another headfier a while...

Also, for anyone in the UK with a 'Lidl' nearby I found this on sale tomorrow for £5! You generally have to be pretty quick to get in on Lidl deals though.  

My first in a while and my first IEM cable as well, this one's for another head-fier    Toxic Cables 26AWG SPC, genuine gold-plated Oyaide R/A 3.5mm, aluminium tube with black heatshrink for y-split (thanks cogs!) and wooden bead for slider.    

Interested to hear any thoughts on how things have worked out with the new pads if possible? Do the velour ones isolate just as well?

It's a Wolfson WM8533 by the looks of it: http://www.standard.co.uk/business/markets/market-roundup-wolfson-on-the-rise-as-suspicion-of-apple-deal-starts-to-leak-out-8211979.html Quote:

Fantastic, thanks! Any other changes? Quote:

Any update on 'retinizing' the icons? Thanks

Ok, thanks again for the help! Just a heads-up for anyone looking to order from Lunashops in the next couple of weeks that they're on holiday from tomorrow until the 6th October, so if you want your stuff shipped before then, probably best to order quickly. Quote:

Anyone know the softest/most flexible black sleeving which expands a little for 4 wires already braided? I.e. so it clings to the shape of the braid somewhat. Preferably available from this site (or other UK sellers) if possible.

Thanks fraggier, just a part of it needs to be really slim and that looks like just what I want if the Neutrik won't fit!   Edit: Neutrik/Rean provide technical drawings which gave me the measurements I needed. Quote:

Any chance people could post the smallest bodied 3.5mm plugs they know of? I'm looking at making a shorter straight cable for my TMA-1 Studios which have a recessed 3.5mm entry socket. So far I can think of the Viablue mini and possibly the rean jacks.

I think Andy's got this to post home to its rightful owner  Quote:

Firstly does anyone know if multi-quote replies work across more than one page? As in, is it possible to pick multiple quotes from different pages of the thread and then reply?   In reply: Thanks, it's quite difficult to give a definitive answer as I couldn't A-B them and also because I...

Yes it is East Indian Rosewood!   Quote:
