RCA interconnects - your collection and making your own

[Miller-8]

I have collected quite a few over the last 3 decades. Taken some phones here - the ones with the Furutech plugs are home made with silver cable, but I think I superglued them rather than soldering so I need to redo them (made them 20 years ago.

The pink cable is Sonic Link Silver Pink from about 1996

poor soldering from a commerical product

Superglue is not an electrical bond. Solder them.

The pink cables aren't crimped correctly either. These are a fail.

Superglue?? At what point did you think that was a good idea?
Sorry, no really, but that's hilarious.
Gotta start somewhere though I suppose.

Yeah I know! It lasted for a few years like that though 😀

Blame Sonic Link for that. How are they not crimped correctly?

Interesting idea.

They aren’t crimped at all. The crimps haven’t been crimped.
