Putting a new end on a XLR cable
@dweller  Sorta tried that already and.  “We would need to test the cable in person to determine where it is damaged.“. Was the reply.  
Putting a new end on a XLR cable
@dweller I forgot to mention, the collets are blue and say RSC air1 and Series 2 under in a different font. They are the only thing that unscrews, so far. The rest of the cable is a black/silver weave and the ends are black with Tara Labs in whi...

@dweller  You’re right about the O ring on the female side, there isn’t one on the male side. The O ring is between the lock pieces. I tried to unscrew the female side with a pliers and cloth and so far nothing has moved.  
Tune of the Day

Whats on your turntable tonight?

"High end" store snobbery
@gabor2525  We have 1 and 1/2 high end stores here. The full high end store is a bit snobby, but has always showed me anything they had. The 1/2 shop sells more HT systems and has mostly high Mid Fi, but are as friendly and proud of everything th...
