Was showing off my last months efforts of my uber-phat cables to a family member, they wanted to learn how but asked can I do something more flash??? Thinking to myself wth? these aint flash 'n overkill enough rofl... I settle down and try to think... smell smoke, no fire it's an idea (I'm a analog kinda guy, it's just the dust burning off once the tubes warm up a bit giggle)... an idea... I'm kinda tiny bit crazy lol. Thought put a square peg into dual round to impress will maybe do it ? So this happened.
Spent whole day (well 13 or so hours) at my head-fi station showing them my cans, listening to music and trying to show em how to do this...
8 way 22awg litz box weave (square) into dual 4 way round braid... Not terminated as didn't plan this cable... But it exists now and as most know it's not easy for me so I am not going to waste it (also 18m {2.25m x 8} worth of copper there rofl ain't cheap/now crying thinking about it all lol), just have to work out which cans it'd be used on for terminations rofl... (for nerds it's 22awg litz @133 strand count x 8 = 1,064 strand count cable)

At the Meze booth at CanJam NYC (February '22), they gave every visitor a white wrist bracelet made of twisted HP wire. The little SS end fits into the magnetic clasp--elegant and simple.
I still wear it from time to time. It's very cool.

Everyone's too kind ty again, it' doesn't even have shiny bling terminations yet....That said if you like nice cable 'n like a lil bling wait till you see me spinning some silver strands if you like shiny things... Hhmm, there's an idea, maybe I'll do some sometime ....
I love the bling of the rhodium stuff I use sometimes but OMG it's more of a PITA than litz for soldering lol....
