Could I use any of these cables for a pretty decent cable? I only need the cable as I can get Neutrik plugs locally (it was a huge suprise). I'm not making it right away but I will in couple days or so, once I get my headphones.

Here's the link to options, if none of them are decent, say so.
Maplin > Audio & Video Cable

That's some stellar looking LOD

There's some interesting cable in there - I don't know if anyone has tried it, but it's worth a shot. All of the stuff that says "audio" in the title seems pretty good (look for Oxygen Free Copper).

Nice, LOD. Hey, Juaquin your link for the audio cable was useful. By the way, GO BRUINS!

Netjes. Die tukkers kunnen wel wat.

Thank you Juaquin.
I live in a pretty small town (it's still a town) and so it's quite hard to come by a decent cable or even a hi-fi shop.

Could you buy TechFlex in any local Hardware store?

Thanks! Some sure can, others just drink Grolsch all day and start fights over soccer

But the last part happens all over the soccer-loving globe, not?
Nu snappen die Amerikanen er helemaal niets meer van

Good Lord that website has EVERYTHING!

Was bored after work today so did a few more woodies. Need to oil them to darken them but finished the cables first this time instead of oiling before putting them together. Still have a load of materials over from when I sold cables so planning on making a wooden version of every cable I can xD I dont actually use any of the cables I made, just fun making them

You can probably find something like it, but I don't know if they'll make it small enough - they probably sell larger sizes used by electricians and such. But it's worth a trip to find out.

Wow Captain, those are some awesome looking mods. looking forward to more from you. I think they'd look even better stained.

Done with lots of TLC....Canare StarQuad Cables

 

[Captain ?degard]

Oil varnish is dry. Quite a difference

 

[SpudHarris]

EFN (Mr Crabs - Love that Avatar!!), does that Canare do anything to help with the Bass? My 701's have the standard cable but I find them a tad light in that area...

I have to pair them with my PPAv2 because that has a Bass pot, but I'd like to use them with my GS Solo.

Will this be a decent plug for an audio cable?
Neutrik - Audio - 1/4" Prof. Phone Plugs, X-Series - NP3X

It should be and I already have it

But I'm just checking, because it cost 2x as some cheap-ass plugs but I bought it because I thought it should be made of quality and should be better.
