Preamp or "U" jumpers: where to buy, choices?

Funny how these threads pop back up. Since I posted this I had them made for me by Signal Cable. Since its basically just a short IC Frank made me a pair for $25, basically a very short Analog2. They work great, a good tweak for the money.

From my understanding, the Cable Company makes U-bar replacments as well. I have used both the Audioquest and Tara Labs, I preferred the Tara.

One Call (www.onecall.com) is selling Audioquest U-jumpers IC's for $39.

I was looking for the same things for a long time and all I was able to find were the audioquest and taras mentioned here. I was gifted a pair of tara lab interconnects so I just took my old Homegrown Audio Silver Lace interconnects that I was originally using and used those for the jumpers. The tara "missing link" as I believe it is called would have neen the way that I would have gone had I not been given the new interconnects. Really, all they are is really short interconnects so $40 or so isn't all that bad for the upgrade.

just my 2c

I own the Audioquest and the Tara Labs, both I believe were $25-$30. The Tara's were better IMO.

There is another company that makes them, but I believe they are $50+. Pure Silver Sound maybe???

You could also have the Cable Company make a pair for you, not sure of the cost though.

Regards,

I know Tara offers a pair of "RSC Links" for this purpose, but I do not know the price. I'd guess somewhere in the neighborhood of $30 - $40.
