Anyone find any Budget angled lightning cables? They're either non existant, or as the guy said above a ridiculous amount of money.
I used to get mine from The Grobe, but he has since ceased making them.

Are you talking about a cable or an interconnect?
Amazon sells this 6 ft cable for $20

From my amp to my iphone, so one that's closer to 2 inches...

$30 is hardly cheap considering what it is (let alone paying $200 for a connector LOL)
 
I found these on amazon for much cheaper.
 
http://www.amazon.com/Nomad-Cable-Apple-Certified-Lightning/dp/B00E9B8V5M  <- 3 inches
http://www.amazon.com/Keychain-Lightning-Generation-Charging-Certified/dp/B00O4FUY30/ <- 4 inch cheaper than ^
 
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-USB-Cable-4-Inch-Black/dp/B00B5RGAWY/ <- 4 inch cheaper than ^

Thanks for sharing

Bought the key ring one, gonna compare it to the tuono when it arrives.

Okay so honestly, I couldn't tell the difference between the Tuono and the Kero cables (sonically), but the Kero cable is a lot nicer (physically).
 
 
 
Firstly, it's shorter, it's about 1cm shorter in total length. 

As you can see, my Tuono cable did shatter, the top part fell off after much use, fortunately that's not possible as the protectors on here are one piece.
 
 

 
It's actually cheaper too, being $18 rather than $30
 

Tangle-free, it won't move around while it's in your pocket so it won't get bent (possibly means it'll last longer?)
 
 
 

 
 
Very sturdy overall, closest solution to an amp/mp3 player connector without buying any angled connectors.

Sorry to be lazy, I haven't read every part of this thread, but does anybody know a company/person who would make up a lightning to mini Usb cable, but incorporating the CCK (camera connection kit) as I would love a smaller and smarter way to connect my iPhone 6 to my JDS Labs C5D. I live in the UK, just in case this makes it a problem? Thanks to all in advance.

I'm looking for the same - lightning to mini. (but for my Theorem 720). The Lightning to mini adapter that came with it wasn't very robust.
I'd like right-angle on both ends, if possible.

Paul Pang built CCK into this $199 Lightning-to-micro cable and most likely Lightning-to-mini should be OK, e-mail was listed on the page

Someone else in China should know how to do that as well but not sure if they were shipping internationally and speaking English?

Cozoy also made a similar Lightning-to-micro cable with CCK incorporated, not sure if they're selling that separately

Simply ask someone to reterminate the cable by replacing the micro USB connector with mini USB.

200$ usd is way too much.

Anyone knows if it possible to get decent priced lightning-mini usb anywhere nowdays?

Would lightning-micro and converter micro-mini do the trick?
