I also made a 3.5mm interconnect for it did not make it a balanced mod because I don't have nor in near future have balanced equipment. I just want to use 3.5mm cable

Here is my first handmade interconnect made of Mogami 2534 and Netrick 3.5mm connected to the phone.



Well done! Ballsy first recable! I did a 3 pin mini xlr into mine, but your jack looks really nice. I had to drill out some plastic to do mine. Did you have to do any serious reworking of the hole?

Also, which jack did you use specifically?

ALO 24 awg silver plated cable replaced all the internal cable. 2.5mm socket is replaced with neutrick 3.5 gold plated jack.

Can you kindly share some internal pictures of the 840?
I'm trying to do a similar mod too

Quick question. I have some 24AWG ALO XSC cable left after recabling the headphone. I wonder which 3.5mm connector can accommodate 3~4 of it into the housing, the Neutrick 3.5mm has the hole of the shell too small for 3x2.4 awg ALO

Very nice first cable. Super clean. What did you use for the Y-split?

For the Y-split I used those spring tails that come with the Neutriks, it was kind of a last minute solution but I think it didn't turn out too bad.

yeah, really nice y split there.
I was looking the cable over and thought... seems fairly simple, nice good job... and then I saw the y split and I was like "woah,."
Best y split I've seen in a while. I'll have to copy you. Mine always turn out like carpfish.
Nice work.

That is absolutely one of the best DIY Y split implementations that I have seen. I don't use those Neutrik's, so I don't have that available to me, but it has given me some great ideas.


And S3am, where did you get those Daxx RCA's. Seeing that you are in Russia I fear I won't be able to get my hands on some. I found their website, but their link to Amazon doesn't show anything. Those look great and the price is excellent. Very cool cable.
