Cheers!
 
I posted comments here a few days back because lots of peeps ask the same question...... Both superb amps.

av outlet is excellent to deal with for the viablue's.  they are very friendly and seem to want to go out of their way to be helpful.
both times i ordered from them their stuff arrived very quickly - once a day later, and the next time the same day.  Granted they are pretty close to where I live.
 
one time i ordered an item that turned out to be out of stock.. they called me the same day and offered me several solutions all of which were geared towards maximum convenience to me.. in the end they somehow got it to me the day after i ordered, along with the rest of my order...

Its called Self defense - Fi rig.
 
and I recable a denon HP700 with canare L-4e5c. I thought the Rean plugs were the same size of the switchcraft, but its smaller, the cable barely fit after some effort.

How's the L-4E5C? I used the L-4E6S, maybe I should have went with the one you used instead. I had to use a rattail file on my Neutrik jacket to get the cable to fit in it.

never tried the L-4E6S but canare has both listed as almost the same  http://www.canare.com/ProductItemDisplay.aspx?productItemID=53 but the 5C is 20% thiner than the 6S ( 4.8 and 6 mm )
 
still, and there is no way the 5C can fit into the neutrik L shaped, the Rean has a slighter bigger barrel and it barely fit, the cable even shows some sort of bruises and I had to use (snake) oil to slide it into the Rean barrel.
 
I know for personal experience that the Mogami 2893 fits into the Neutrik L plug. perfect fit, like if they were made for each other, not even space left for a cable sleeve.
 
I couldnt help notice how the Canare has better built over the Mogami, big difference in the braided copper shell.

Hey Nigel, thanks for that, it seems to be different from what I found and what someone posted earlier and now I'm really confused, can't afford to get this one wrong, can someone check on their cable for me please.

i've made a few akg cables already while i owned my 702's and i can tell you for sure its the way i posted it before.

Going to Rewire my AD700's can someone link me to a wire and a plug that will work well. I'm super new to this no clue what I'm doing I do know how to solder though hehe.
 
edit: Oh yeah my left audio is not working do you guys think this will fix it?

Think I'm going with the Canare L-4E5C wire and Neutrik NTP3RC-B 3.5mm Stereo Right Angle Mini Plug.

You will have to cut the plug in order to fit the cable in.

s/h to PL is another $12 for First Class. It's not a huge cost but as for two plugs only it seems a lot.
I'll ask my local Viablue distributor for pricing however, they didn't list those new slim plugs on their web.

They are also not listed yet on the official Viablue web store.

I have been following this thread from long time, of course i got the DIY cable fever.
 
So my friend brought me 6 meters of this cable today: http://katalog.cordial.eu/media/produkte/bulk%20cables/CMK422/CMK%20422.pdf
 
It is very flexible and looks like high quality but, will it work for recabling my dt8800?
 
 
I still need a soldering iron advice too, i narrowed it down to those 3, which one do you think is the best? if you have any other recommendation please say
