A very excellent video. I liked to add that for other viewers that sometimes the inner core insulation can melt and causes short circuit if not careful when applying excessive heat for a longer timer. So what I do is to put heatshrink in the inner core insulation to stop this from happening.
Nice work, glad I found this video as I'm about to buy these Rean plugs and wanted to see them apart and handled. They look like a quality connector, especially with the strain relief clamp. Hope you didn't forget to hang the washing out!
I use quad core microphone cable. The problem with instrument cabling is the semi-conductive layer between the inner conductor's insulator and the shield; the cabling is of different design. Then match your connector metals to what they are connecting to, or just use gold.
I'm some years late commenting on this, but for that extra mile one might add some paracord over the cable and some nice shrinkwrapped ends, to get that super high end feel. Either that or some Techflex, they make numerous types of sleeving, including a nice cotton.
Many thanks for posting your excellent and really helpful video.🙏

Great tip!

Hahaha.. Yes I really must invest in a good microphone and some noise cancellation software!
the black layer on the center is conductive, you need to strip it right back you're asking for a short having it that close to the positive pole.

What temperature was your soldering iron set too???
Thank you! I wanted to know what the black part was for 😊👍
Thanks for sharing. Doing the same, but with Mogami microphone cables.
How did they turn out? I need to make a few pairs of bright coloured ones for the kids bedrooms
Any idea was material is used by REAN (Neutrik) for a center pin insulation?
I'm not sure, here is a link to the product page: www.rean-connectors.com/en/products-1/phono/phono-plugs/nys373
how about rean with mogami 2534 four conductors ? with rean
Where's a good place to get the connectors in Australia?

Great idea. I'm going to be using the shrink wrap when I put together some speaker cable
@audioholics what do you have to say ?
Turn off youtube video stabilization. Bout to throw up from all the warping and wobbling
I don’t understand
You turned RCA cables into RCA cables......
Anybody????
It’s for replacing connectors if you need to.
