Looks like the way i do my recables. Neutrik straight and 26awg wire? I use btg audio wire. Looks very similar to that toxic... I prefer to braid it like that as well. It adds flexibility. I see a lot of braids that are tighter, but then it doesn't feel as soft.

Rean straight actually, but they look so similar they might as well be the same jack. I originally recabled because I hated how stiff the stock cable was so I went with a loose braid to aid in flexibility.

  They are the same jack, Rean is just another name for Neutrik.
 
Nice cable BTW.

Oh I had no idea, interesting bit of information!
 
Thanks, your wire is excellent stuff too

Neutrik owns Rean, they are independent product lines. Rean connectors are not on the same level of quality as Neutrik, they are good connectors but they aren't Neutrik.

Both the Neutrik and rean 3.5mm plugs are the exact quality as they are the same plug, just different logo. You will find that many places you order Neutrik from will also send you the rean instead.
 
Only place you will see different quality is when the exact same connector is not sold in both the Neutrik and Rean brands, so how do you compare one against the other. When you find the same product under both brands, you will find them to be the same, they are just sold under 2 different brands.
 
Even on the rean site, you will find that the actual product pictures show the Neutrik branded plugs, http://www.rean-connectors.com/en/products/35-mm-plugs/
 
Some of the products that are now being sold with both Neutrik and Rean brands, will soon only be available in the Rean brand, including the 3.5mm plugs, that's my understanding from speaking directly with Neutrik UK some time ago.
 
Anyhow, this is the picture gallery.
