sorry to post in the DIY and for the long post... but I figured you guys know more about this than anyone, and i have exhausted my search both on the forums and the googles.
I thought my desire would be so easy to meet but I simply cant find what i'm looking for anywhere
what i am looking for is an aesthetically pleasing mini to mini cable to use in the future between a digital out of a dap (fiio x3) and a digital in of a JH3A. (jh audio's new custom iem and amp package)
Note: the main goal of this cable is asthetics, and cheap. i'm about to own an $1800 portable rig, and i figure i owe it to myself to enjoy the way it looks too but i in no way want to plunk down $200 for a cable... call me crazy..
ideally i would like it to have the following traits:
viablue connectors.. only because i like the way the look more than any others. paillics is my next choice.. again for looks
braided wire, either copper color with clear sheilding that is so commonly used, or maybe something like blue or purple wire - again i'm going for looks here
i dont care about super duper wire.. no need for cryo, or .99999999million percent pure, or silver plated uranium from the moon.. i just want it to transmit sound and not corrode and what not.
wire that is pretty bendy and doesnt hold its shape
total length maybe 2-3 feet at the most.
most importantly - CHEAP! am i dreaming that i could get this for under $50
is this possible.. any advice in any way about anything ive mentioned here would be greatly appreciated
would i be better off sourcing all the components myself and then asking a fellow head-fier to build it for me .. or is there someone here that has all the parts and can do it?
thanks alot guys..
