I'm looking to make my own IC cable. I've found the connectors I want (Switchcraft RA plugs), but I can't find the wire I want.

I'm looking for copper wire that has the look of the Cryo Jena wire used in ALO cryo docks:

I have a cryo and love it, but I'm looking to have some fun and build an 1/8" - 1/8" IC.

The wire doesn't have to be cryo or Jena (though if you have a source let me know), but I want that nice visible copper look. I'll be braiding the cable and I won't be covering with techflex.

Thanks!

This place seems to have some. http://www.homegrownaudio.com/bulk_wire.htm Scroll to the bottom. No pictures. Never bought from them.

Solid conductor. Probably not what you are looking for.

You could try Vampire wire. It's much cheaper than Cryo too.

here's a couple pics of the Homegrown Audio OFHC wire for reference

Cool - thanks! Any other sources are welcome too.

Navships on e-bay sells some really high quality silver plated copper. It is really good stuff and a lot of people around here use it.

+1, but try cryoparts if you want a true cryo-dock. These guys are great with customer service and shipping. The guy even called me like 5 minutes after I ordered to tell me he was packing my order and they had ran out of a color of techflex I wanted and to ask what replacement color I wanted, anyway, as it turns out, they had it in stock, but calling me to confirm was just awesome. I got my order 2 days after I clicked Pay Now.

Navships, while his prices are great and his quality is awesome, does hesitate to ship out your orders, took 5 days before he even shipped out my wire.

Hmmm. I had mine 3 days after order.

jena will sell their wire at 6 a foot (price is IIRC).
give them a call.

take five audio has a nice selection of parts, and they even offer cryo treatments for everything! So you can get say silver plated copper and have it cryo'd for not much more, and even get cryo'd plugs!
