Finished my "Candy Cane" cable for my Utopia. Silver only was too harsh. 24AWG solid silver for the hot, and 2 Mogami 26AWG wires for each ground. Does it sound sweet? sure!
The white is cotton sleeved solid core silver 24AWG. There are two of those, one for the hot on each channel. There are four red 26AWG wires. The red wires where loosely braided into one "rope", then I braided the "rope" and the two hot wires into a three strand braid unit the Y split. From there it's one cotton sleeved silver to the connector, with two red commons wrapped around it to the connector. At first I braided the three wires, but braiding two thin reds and one thick white looked yucky (sorry about the technical term).
