Zenitram Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Ask John at Orchid Electronics to make you one. Very, very reasonably priced (I'd go as far as "inexpensive" bordering on "cheap"), and use top-quality parts and cable and all that. They'll do any length, various colours. I very strongly doubt you'll find cheaper for such top-notch quality. http://www.orchid-electronics.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingus Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 As a shop - bought option , I have had one of these since 1999 and it sounds great and still works perfectly http://www.monstercable.com/productdisplay.asp?pin=2308 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiOgon Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Also highly recommended - very high quality, flexible, tough cloth covered,great plugs & a nice little bag: http://www.amazon.co.uk/VBC-19BL-19ft-Class-Professional-Cable/dp/B000Y7O0FK/ref=sr_1_68?s=musical-instruments&ie=UTF8&qid=1367166366&sr=1-68&keywords=VOX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenitram Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 By way of example, a three-metre Orchid lead with Neutrik connectors and Van Damme "Pro Grade" cabling cost me nine pounds delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlloyd Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I had some monster cables and wouldn't buy them again. Good cables, but their business practices... not so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellyfish Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Can't go wrong with OBBM, I use them myself. But I'm keen on the Planet Waves American series. Quality cables and lifetime warranty, what more could you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) I wouldn't even consider anything other than obbm cables - I have many! Top quality, best value and great service. What more d'you want?

TRBboy Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Just make your own, it's so easy (and cheap)! I used Van Damme cable and Neutrik jacks from studiospares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They buy Neutrik jacks and Van Damme cable in bulk and pass the savings on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
