I will shortly be purchasing a set of livewires and was wondering if anybody could make me a set of custom cables for them. Silver cable,connect to iphone via 1/8 inch silver neutrik right angle plug,[http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/ue5...-wazoo-301859/] i like the look of the ones in the bottom right hand corner of the third pic,and the 7,8,and 9th pic too.If anybody is able to make cables for livewires,please post a comment or P.M me with a rough price

If you can't get a custom cable for your Livewires, Livewires will mod an existing iPhone cable to work with Livewires. John showed it to me a while ago and it was pretty cool. They basically replace the ibuds on the iPhone cable with their Livewires connectors.

The cable to earphone connector is an amphenol connector. I'm thinking its a MMCX RF connector, but i've not really broke out the Calipers yet and compared mine to the product spec sheet.

You can pick them up from your favorite mail-order electronics component dealer place.

I've been thinking about making up a cable that has a microphone in the Y splitter with the smaller cellphone plug to use with my phone, but haven't been serious enough yet to buy parts and pieces...

I was originally worried about the durability of the cord, but i love the replace-ability of Livewires and I haven't needed to replace it yet.
