Previously MOT: Cables For Less
MarkerTek has them. I will post a link soon. They also list Switchcraft as I recall but they are not as easy to plug together. I also like Neutrik's (Rean's) way of gripping the cable jacket.

Total of under $5.00 for both parts. On a scale of 1-10, 1 being the easiest connectors to install (RCA plugs, Mono quarter inch being a 2). I would give these a difficulty of 8. I like them but they may not be for everyone. I have built many a cable knowing I then had to terminate it with a specific connector. With this system I can go to two channels and ground or balanced connections. it is extra work but there is less wire cost in a short pigtail and less braiding.
One day if my company becomes a sponsor here, we could possibly sell such connectors as well as pre-made pigtails with quality 3.5 mm, quarter inch, 4 pin standard XLR etc. already installed. Perhaps a few kinds of star quad cable, individual wire, connectors, heat shrink tubing, rubber grommets etc. for the DIYer.
