Greetings.
I'm a newbie who decided it would be neat to make my own interconnects. Well, I went to radio shack and picked up all the stuff I needed to practice with. Tonight I made a "test" pair of cables. Everything "seemed" to be fine until I tested them.
They make no sound. Not a good start to a DIY hobby, haha.
My test design was pretty simple. Two wires, teflon tape around it, then some electrical tape, then an encloser of electrical tape all around that. When I went to solder them (I'm sure this is where my mistake comes in) I did the best I could. The wires are attached. I checked to see if they broke or something along the way but they didn't.
What do you guys think is wrong?
I feel kind of embarrassed/stupid having to ask why my interconnects don't have any sound, but, I can't seem to find the problem!
Thanks,
-Chad
