Does anybody have a source or idea for cheap cable that can used for DIY balanced interconnects (3 pin XLR)? I hate the idea of using network cable because of all the bulk created by unused pairs. STP with fewer conductors is pricey though because of low demand at retail level.

I like the canare L4E6S.
Very flexible, well shielded and a decent price. |

I second the Canare vote. Great stuff, hard to do better.
Mogami is also very nice.

Another vote for the Canare, I even use it for unbalanced interconnects.

I used 22ga teflon (PTFE) covered silver-plated solid copper, bought from ApexJr.
Braided it, soldered to some vampire XLRs. No shielding at all. Went for that option because its super cheap, and I needed 2x pairs of long (3m) interconnects for biamping. Works perfectly!!!
