Hey everyone,

I am looking for the lowest profile mini-mini IC to connect my iMod 4G and Mini^3 which are stacked together. I need a horseshoe shaped IC that hopefully sticks out as little as possible. I am currently using an APureSound mini-mini which is about 5 inches tip to tip so it sticks out a couple inches. Is there anything that could stick out an inch or less? DIY would be cool as well. I'd love to see some pics if you have any.

Thanks.

I think you're looking for a short cable with right angled mini connectors.

I'm trying to avoid right angle plugs isnce I want to keep things slim as well (don't want the cable extending outside of the stack) and don't want to interfere with the volume knob or headphone jack.

I don't think you can get a lower profile than something like this:

Wow that looks sweet.

Unfortunately the space between my iMods Line Out and Amps Line-in is only about 1/2" and my amp (Mini^3) is longer than the TH so there's about 1/4" vertical offset between the two. That's why I'm looking for a Horseshoe design since there's not room for a big right angle plug like that. I would only have enough room for one of those cheap stock plugs like on the KSC-35.

Thats actually a Hornet. Guess it doesn't matter though.

could perhaps Ken help at ALO??? I know he used to design a horseshoe-type cable which, while not what you may want, he may have some conceptual ideas for you.
