I don't like how the metal can show on the cable entry. I've been looking for a .25 in black neutrik. Nothing. I thought someone got their hands on a NYS231BGL, but I never found it.

 
Black enamel model paint. :)

How did you get a hold of Modded DBA-02's? Are those mine?

 Yes they were modded by you. Shotgunshane sold them to Nuliverse who then passed them onto me :D

Amazing work, as usual Luke.

 Thank you Frank. Excellent cable as usual! I really like this SPC - both aesthetically and SQ wise. Had it burning in for about 10 hours now and its a definate improvement over the generic westone cable I was using.

NYS231BG = 4mm cable opening.
Mogami 2893 = 4mm outside diameter.
Fits like a glove, no drilling/filling required.
 
Edit:
 
Canare L-4E5C also fits like a glove with NYS231BG

How'd you get the miniquad into the NYS231BG?

I didn't know that there was a version with a larger casing opening.  I usually drill them out as well.  In one occasion, I used the nickel casing from this one.  Same part that 65535 (lol, that name) posted, but in nickel.

Finally got around to making my wires.
 
Used:
6ft Techflex Rattlesnake Braided Sleeving
6ft Silver Plated Oxygen Free Copper Wire with Kapton & Teflon Insulation - White/Black (24 AWG, 19 Strand)
2x ViaBlue T6s 3.5mm Stereo Plug (Small)
 

 
Also ended up modding my M50's

I've been a long-time tinkerer, and thankfully I can put those skills to good use!  I've made my first cable with hardware I've recently purchased, and I must say I think the result turned out rather nicely.

The cable itself is for my Q701 and was made with a Switchcraft mini-XLR jack, and a ViaBlue T6s jack, and braided from BTG Audio copper cabling.
 
I do feel I need to mention Brian Goto, who was beyond incredible to work with, always shipped faster than expected and responded to emails faster than any other vendor I've worked with.  His ebay has been linked in this thread a couple times, but here's another link to his awesome wire: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251057990514#ht_500wt_1413

Damn Chris, that is a nice cable. How long is that? No strain reliefs?

My Helical ROCC Cable for K702, I selected Telos Gold Mini-XLR and Viablue T6s 3.5mm jacks.
 
 

Very nice looking cable, and color coordination!  Good Job!

Sweet!
That mini XLR looks nice, any pics of a disassembled one?
