u mean wat brand is it? no brand, female is generic, male is is a replica of sumthing, still, no brand if that is wat ur asking.

I strongly suggest u not to use CAT5 cables unless ur gonna make a giant cable of at least 4 cat5 cables (which wont fit the plug).

yaa..4 pairs of cat5 aka 16 smaller pairs of the twisted super not flexible wires. Ppl are raving of cat5 as a cheap replacement of speaker cable when they are in a massive config as in 4-8-12 even 2 would werk but that would already be big.

U would say, how would i know..i would answer, i built both, i haf both in my hands and my current neutrik+canare cable is far more superior (significantly better, audible difference) compared to the cat5 cables that seems to haf no difference from a chapalang rm5 factory cable.

What are you going to use that cable for wor? You have a balanced headphone that uses 4 pin XLR but you only have a headphone amp that uses 1/4'' plugs?

Dun assume anything big and looks like that is an XLR, u got pawned! its stated there, the way the Canare eas SUPPOSED to be wired, as a microphone wire to a microphone jack wateva.

I got a new PermaPlug 3-pin plug..EU2..RM12+..most expensive 3pin plug ive seen, haha! Made in England.

Well, its free, who's to complain, but construction and aesthetic wise, really interesting.

okay, back to the DIY cable topic, REAN to L4e6s cable, how do most of u guys do the cable neways? remove the sheath of the cable then insert it into the REAN inlet or like me, grind the REAN inlet hole to accommodate the cable. look ma, no heatshrink required.

impedance is the sum of resistance and reactance, resistors are pure resistors, they jus do linear attenuation. Voice coils has reactance due to parasitic capacitance/inductance, so watever you do, you would onlly linearly attenuate the sound. However, output stages sometimes require a higher output load to maintain stability, otherwise it would be unstable and generate an increased noise floor.

I still dun see why adding plain resistors in series can give 'multiple, different' sound effects when they are plain..linear. Placebo at its best maybe..
