Speaking of cables...
I just tried to go to the Blue Jeans Cables site and it didn't come up. Are they gone, or is the site just down? I hope they're not gone, they were BY FAR the most affordable decent cables I'd found.

i just tried thier site, it must be down. Have you seen these www.cobaltcable.com/index.htm
They look pretty good and are relatively afordable but then you could say the same for Axiom cables too.

Blue Jeans interconnects were $26. Even Axiom's are about double that.

I'm going to make my own speaker cables for the heck of it.
I bought 12gauge copper wire, silver plated, with a teflon cover. I bought 50ft in blue, another 50ft in white and will twist them together.. Cost me $33. Will make two 15ft pairs...and one 10ft pair (a pair in this case meaning two wires), so I will have 10feet leftover. Six pairs of banana plugs was about $24 at PartsExpress. Some shrink wrap..$4. And some TechFlex for all three cables about $23. So about $84 for three speaker cables, $57 if I didn't want them to look good.
I should have everything by Tuesday. I have the wire now....and it is pretty heavy.

Sounds like a fun project. Did you get all the materials from PartsExpress?

Craig, you didn't mention exactly what you needed, but these audio and video interconnects are available in 1 1/2' to 25'.

I think I've got a set of those for dubbing from TiVo to VCR. They seem to work.
