ok... I've just been looking for a nice 4 pole 3.5mm female connector for said mod but I can't seem to find any that aren't cheap eBay janky-ness. All the nice ones like Neutrik and Switchcraft I found are all 3 pole. Anybody had any luck with finding a 4 pole counterpart?

I'd like to build myself a Lightning to Micro USB decoding cable for hooking my iPhone to my Sonata HD Pro. Here's one made by Penon Audio to hook up a Mojo to and iPhone. I can't seem to find any pointers on how to build one. Any directions would be more than welcome!

Hello everyone :wink:

I soldered some simple speaker cables some time ago, now I want some headphone cable.
A few quetions:

I'm unsure between taking the neotech stdct 24 awg or the NECE-/NECH-3001.
All of them only use teflon- or pvc-insulation.

Is that a problem in 99 % of the use cases? Electrical interference as wifi etc. or near power sources/cables.
I'm looking at all the headphone/iem-cables and all of them have a simple pvc insulation without heavy shielding.

Alternative would be a neotech NEI-3004, but I'm unsure if this will fit into a mini-xlr rean connector Ø 8.5mm
Probably would have to chop off some of the connector :=)
Is that actually a cable for headphones or only for interconnects?

Are there good alternatives, quality- and price-wise, to the neotech OCC cables?

Thanks! :relaxed:

I am thinking of creating some super short XLR interconnects. Can I use regular headphone wires (I have some laying around) or do I need a specific wire for shielding?

Yesterday I ordered late interconnect xlr nordost heimdall , I intend to use it to make a headphone cable, When I finished the experiment I found it to be great, maybe because the copper cross-section is bigger than a normal headphone cable.

I use it with the LCD 3
