Those cables look amazing guys, keep up the good work!
That first cable is sick. Where is that skull from? I’d totally copy your idea. 
Made by oidio sound UK cable
ordered there now a 1.25m balanced braided (black/grey/petrol) for my Elegia
without splitter with XLR source connector
plus an 15cm short and design-fitting adapter female XLR to 3.5TRRS balanced male

These are Hart Audio Cables. These were made for myself but full disclosure, Hart Audio Cables is my business. Not sure if this is against the rules, I’d be happy to delete if that’s the case.

I love everything about what you’re doing. If I like the 177x, I may want a cable for that. Would you be able to make an xlr 4 mini to xlr 4 mini?

Wow I really appreciate that man. Just launched it last week so it’s nice to get some positive feedback. I think we can definitely do what you’re asking. Send me an email with some more details of what you’re thinking (Length, color etc.) and we’ll get you set up! [email protected]
Lead time on our stock cables is 2 business days, and for custom stuff just depends on whether we already have what you need on hand or not.

Just wondering if it’s a perspective thing, on the bottom cable is the 3.5mm bent? Otherwise that looks like it could be used for a pretty beefy iem cable, something I feel we need more of lol (or at least I want more of lol)
Yeah I noticed that too, looks like it’s distorted from the camera / perspective. Startled me too haha
Nice!!! I would love to make some but how? Are there tutorials somewhere? Would you make a small tutorial? I would love to make some

I actually don’t know why there’s such a big stylistic difference between custom IEM cables (which seem to be all of the weaved, transparent type) and custom headphone cables (paracord braiding). Are there any technical differences I’m missing?
No, it’s just because the twisted cables are more like jewelery and are typically lighter and more flexible imo. No real sound difference. Some high end cables for headphones are twisted/weaved as well
Ohh man it would be a while before I could get a tutorial out : /
A reddit user named demevalos has a couple guides that are a good start:
I’d say follow along with those and you’ll figure out what you do and don’t like!
As @M0N said, mostly just stylistic / aesthetic preference. I go with the design pictured above cause it’s consistent with the method I use for other Y-Split designs. But guys like VikingWeave do some really ornate stuff that’s really cool.
A lot of times you’ll see designs with a bunch more conductors to each headphone connector on a braided Y-Split and a technical argument can be made for that from a noise / signal standpoint I’m sure, but I personally don’t have the ears to hear it.

Got the rest of my cables from Hart! I didn’t order an mmcx cable because I thought the fabric might be too thick or abrasive, but the wires coming out of the split are really nice, flexible, soft. Looks like I’m not done yet haha

Thank you sir!! I will look into this!
Seeing lots more pics of the Hart cables lately. Are they as good as they look?
I just ordered a Hart 2.5mm(2) to XLR. The hype is real. I hope my cable outperforms cables in the $150-1500 XLR range.
In all seriousness, it’s a good value for an XLR cable, so ordered one.

Time will tell, but they’re off to a good start. What I like most about them is the interconnect system. I’ve got a balanced connector in loxjie p20, SE in atom, and 2.5 balanced in es100. I can use all of my headphones in any of my amps without changing the cables.
