Cantsleep,
That thing is a beast, I've never seen anything like that before

Hmmm, what exactly is an ohms-adapter?

Thank you, I like the sleeve very much as well.

I've been thinking of making myself a pait of Litz braided interconnects. It seems that usually people use teflon insulated wires for that. Is there a reason for this? Could I just use very thin speaker wire for that, and how would it differ from using teflon insulated wires?

I just found this thread and there have been many pictures of beatiful cables. Some day I hope to be as good as some of you.

it adds extra imp. and it tends to change the sound in some ways.. it works well with IEMs and grados

Maybe a switch that switched between the 3 different resistor combination might have sufficed? But ofcourse, if you did use that method you wouldn't have a make shift camera tripod in the combo also, now would you!?!

My first interconnect
I used CAT5E and connectors from the local electronic store and used left over sleeving from a computer build.

Here's a pic of my interconnect cables. Same stuff as my subwoofer cable but with different RCAs, which are WBT clones from Biltema. Otherwise great connectors, but they are hard to solder since the ground connection must be soldered directly to the connectors body.

These are my first pair of interconnects, 22AWG Copper, flame retardent Techflex, some spare connectors I had lying around. I really like them!

Really envy you guys having such nice techflex!!
Well I can't get it from my side here, so did another way to have the diff colour look. "pink, pink"

Just made 10 cables with Neutrik Profi RCAs, Canare GS-6 cable, and 1/4" nylon covering. Looks and feels great, very flexible.

Too lazy to take them off my setup, so here they are:

Best of all, NO HEATSHRINK!!! Seriously, nice clean looking cables. I did a little cable making myself last night when I realized that I didn't have any test cans for the balanced amp that I was building. So now I've got a pair of balanced KSC75s

Nate, let's see some photos

Sounds interesting.

Very nice cables and pics. Also, what camera do you use?

I still use my old Sony DSC-S85, a great camera, but I'm still in the market for the Nikon D80... ANyways, thanks for the comment

It's not the camera that makes the photo, it's the person behind the lens!

I'll shoot a few pictures tonight of the balanced 75's, I also recabled my 35's a week or so ago so those are do to be shot as well. Now if only progress on the amp was going better

As requested here are the balanced Koss KSC75s:
