Once the heat shrink is heated and shrinks it softens up a bit compared to when its in its unshrunk state for me its not a problem and it a very easy inexpensive and effective.
Hi all, very new to the hobby and to the forum. First post, actually. Thanks to everyone for the wealth of info this forum has provided. Here is my first attempt at a DIY cable, go easy on me! I went straight from the stock cable to this on my LCD-3s. And yes, I sourced a black volume knob for the black Jotunheim on ebay, the silver one drove me crazy.
One guy selling the earbuds of one famous russian technician, let's say. Viablue jack lost its "gold" in the middle. I used to had 3.5 mini to mini cable with 2 viablue jacks and never had such issue with them, even though I used it very actively.. So, I'm wondering:
1) Does fake Viablue jacks exist?
2) if yes, how to distinguish the fake one with the real one?
3) What is the difference in price?
4) where are fake one selling from site, country, resource, shop etc...?
P.s: I do not want to buy, just want to see how those places looks like and what are the prices. I just want to understand what could be the price of offered earbuds without surplus of the maker.
This thread as well as its sister thread have been very helpful in getting me started. Here are RCA interconnects and XLR/SE adapter I made for use with my Mogwai SE:
Here they are in action:
For the RCA interconnects I used Canare L-4E6S and sleeved 0.25" Techflex over the jacket. The right angle RCA connectors are Switchcraft 3502RABAU, and the straight RCA connectors are Rean Neutrik NYS373. I put a piece of adhesive 3/8" heatshrink at the right angle connectors.
For the XLR/SE adapter I used Canare L-4E6S and sleeved Paramax over the jacket. The right angle 1/4" TRS is a Switchcraft 236. The 4-pin XLR female is the ubiquitous Neutrik NC4FXX-B. I put a piece of nonadhesive 1/2" heatshrink at the TRS connector.
Honestly the right angle connectors are largely aesthetic, and the top-mounted jacks on the Mogwai SE accommodate them well.
