QUOTE(lex @ Aug 5 2014, 03:08 AM) Any specifications/requirements, especially outer/external diameter and conductor size (in AWG)? Also what is the cable purpose or application? For your information, you could try looking/searching here: RS Components > Cables & Wires > Wire & Single Core Cable or here: element14 > Cable, Wire & Assemblies > Wire - Single Conductor... guess i didn't specify my requirements lol.  well, it's to make a headphone cable, much like the one done by NoobHacker. 8 braid single core cable to be terminated to 4pin xlr and 2 * 3pin mini xlr. 26awg should be enough i guess not sure about RS, they seem... expensive... and would just prefer the usual audio branded cables such as canare and mogami etc. if i can't find locally, then i am forced to ship it. gonna need a lot since i'm going to use it for other stuff too, such as adaptors and interconnects |

The only notable (known audiophile) brands found there are Van Damme, Belden and Gotham... yeah. very unfortunate. how about other electronics shop though? last time i went to AmCorp, i saw some pretty good stuff like voodoo cable. but then those are probably speaker cables |

QUOTE(lex @ Aug 5 2014, 04:22 AM) Seems that Mouser and Digikey also do not have those (exotic) brands. Obviously one place you could try looking at is eBay. Alternatively can try using this cable: BELDEN - 83002 010100 - HOOK-UP WIRE, 100FT, 26AWG, CU, BLACK which has silver plated copper conductor core... the belden looks promising. i'll keep a tab on itQUOTE(more2teayap @ Aug 5 2014, 05:43 AM) Yup, i tried doing 8 braid once, sudddenly felt tired and took some rest, when i come back to it, i'm lost. not very familiar with the area. but i'll be going there sometime soon anyway, so i can check. would be easier if someone knew the shop's name though You can easily get canare from jalan pasar i think, cause i heard someone able to get from there few months back. |
