I'm looking for someone to re-terminate my ALO SXC 8 mmcx 2.5mm balanced cable to 4.4mm balanced. If you know where I can send it to a professional job done please let me know.
Hi,
I have an adapter, I was just hoping to eliminate it and simplify things. You really wouldn't me anywhere near a soldering iron. I can do a lot of things, soldering is not one of them. ; )

Modding a high end cable is risky, if somehow it's not done carefully the cable end may remain direct contact with air and end up with oxidized green. better get a adapter or a new cable.I'm looking for someone to re-terminate my ALO SXC 8 mmcx 2.5mm balanced cable to 4.4mm balanced.

I have all of them and really very good adapter cables.I agree with @PaganDL, using a good adadpter will be an easier solution. There are some very successful adapters on the market, for example like the one under the link below;

@Moonstar,
Thanks for reposting the exact link I posted
Anyway, just wanted to say, do enjoy reading your reviews !
Hope you have a great day !
Thank you for your nice comment
Yeah, re-terminations are highly expensive directly from cable builders, specially the 4.4mm jacks. Unless your cable cost range is from $500 to flagships and your ears are too picky to minor sound alteration, it's pointless to re-terminate and adapters are really convenient options.I contacted ALO and they'll do it for $100. Thats more than I want to invest in the cable so I'm going to stick with the adapter. I have a Cayin adapter which is a short L shaped arrangement with no cable involved, if this is not a good adapter I will look into the ones you suggested, thanks.
