Made it a while ago but didnt share.
 
20cm jack to RCA hybrid design:
 
Neutrik RCA and 3,5jack
Hybrid - one silver one golden plated copper in each 22AWG telfon sleeve
Cotton strands inside
Copper shileding over cotton starnds inside
Black cotton sleeving.
 
Sound is pretty decent. It combines best of golden copper and silver which is sweet, warm bottom end with little midbass emphasis and high clarity in upper regions. Resolution of this cable is really good.
 
Surprisingly cable is very soft. Probably because of bigger gauge of teflon sleeve.

I've never had sleeved cables so I was wondering how much the longevity of sleeved cables are compared to bare cables? Looks great and thanks!

Longevity will not be much different unless you are actually breaking cables in the middle (which is difficult to do) or buying solid-core wire, where sleeving won't make a difference in logevity. The key is to protect contact/solder joints, where most of the breakages occur. Strain relief is your friend.

Those are some wicked cool HD555s!
 
Here's a HFI780 I re-cabled for a friend. 4 feet of orange Mogami 2534 w. black Techflex. 3.5mm Rean plug (oversize barrel) + matching 7 feet extender.

After 3 years regular use, my RE0's cable has began to show sign of hardening, so I ordered some MEElec M2 and used the cable to recable my RE0. Here is the result.
 

 
Next stop is to recable my old iM716, but I have to order some tiny SMD resistors first, instead of using the common choice of metal film. This is mainly just to keep the minimalistic appearance.

^ Great, great, great work! My RE0s are in need of recabling too. Is it hard? How did you do it?

Nice.  Looks like the diameter of the barrel's rear opening is wider than even the smaller plug's barrel with the back drilled out.

so viablue's shrunk to the size of neutriks, and neutrik's grew to the size of viablue eh?

I was thinking the same thing, they look nice thought, sleek.

One of those projects I wished I'd never started....
 
Came out ok in the end, not as neat as I'd hoped though.
