I don't care to if you can get me all the stuff. I can get a hold of some stuff but I'd prefer that you get what you want. I've had to swap ends on my Zeropoint Pro Musical Reference RCA's as well as made up some old ones with STS cables.

there was one shop that I worked at that made all their own rca's. They just kept some small gauge high current cable that we would twist together with our drill and then solder when we knew the exact length.[/u]

I have to measure to see how long they need to be and the amp is not at my house right now. I would like them to be of the highest quality within reason. I would like to keep the total cost under $180. Seeing as how they will all be between 12" and 30" that shouldnt be a problem. Its not that I cannot do it, but I am buying a house and that means moving. So I will have everything spread from here to there for a while. I wont have my workshop set back up for a few months probably. Also dont have a work bench in the new garage so I have to build one. UGH!!!!!

So it would just be easier to pay someone this time around.

I will check through Digi-Key tonight and get back at you with all of the part numbers so you know how much it will cost.

The parts will be top notch including super bad Teflon/Kevlar shielding :wink:
