Wow, kinda reminds me of the Barney Grado from a few years back...

Yeah... I'm going to take that as an insult!
The shortest cable I've made so far.
How did you make it that short?
Can you kindly explain?
I know for one that the cover of the neutrik plug is already longer than the ttl length of your interconnect
That's the 2 right angle pieces without the barrells with some heatshrink.
Yes, that is correct. The L-shaped part of the neutrik connector is split into halves, so they can be glued into place after wiring the connectors together. A short 3:1 shrink tube can be passed over one of the connectors later.

Thanks for the info mate!
May I kindly know what type of glue did you use to bond the two halves of the barrel together?
As for the heat-shrink, after you have soldered all of the connections together and glue the barrel, you used a 3:1 heat shrink, slid it to the middle and shrunk it correct?
Finally, how many strands of conductor did you use for each channel? What were their gauge size?
Thank-you
Where to get these angled neutriks (ntp3rc) cheap?.....$9 and above is all I cld find/get
Technically is that a cable ;D?
It seems more like you put together 2x3.5mm and that's it, but it is a cute little connector, it might be a good stuff when you are portable amping.
I soldered the wires together first, used superglue to close the shells, then passed heatshrink over it in the end.
It was a trial run, so I used leftover BTG audio wire of 26awg. Two ground, one left, one right channel. Next time I plan to use slightly better wire, but stiff wires prevent the cable from slightly expanding or compressing to account for a few millimeters of measurement error.
Cheapest I could find was $3.42 with free shipping on Marketek.
It has around 4 inches of wire combined inside (Around 1 inch per channel), so technically it is a cable.
