The price at Mr Speakers is really not so bad, they use a brand that is similar to Hirose. I generally get them from Mouser, Tecnec (Markertek), or Allied Electronics.

Hi, may I know where did u buy the hirose connectors from (aside from mr speakers) shipping to Asia is a PITA expensive!
Heya from Malaysia! Bought it off a China supplier on Ebay will update you with the link to it ASAP but all together I think I paid just a feel dollar cheaper and save the shipping cost from US. It's pricey so best to use a good a quality cable to make sure it's worth the money :wink:

@ostewart LOVE IT! I love me some Toxic Cables! I used Viper for my Audeze Sine Cables, 3.5mm to RCA and 2.5mm to 2 x 3-XLR cables. My next purchase will be some Black Widow to re-wire a pair of VE Zen 2.0.

Yeah I use their cable a lot when I can afford it, it so easy to work with and sounds great. When I'm poor (99% of the time) Van Damme miniature starquad suffices.

DAP->Amp cable, with twisted single-core copper cat5 cable, teflon and transparent shrinking and chi-fi faux Senn plugs. What do you think?

Good looking cable, appears to be quite well done. For that length cable, even using solid copper cat 5 it should not be under a lot of stress. That twisted pair is usually 24 awg and the twists are pretty exact. (each pair is twisted at a different rate than the other pairs in the bundle.)
