Where to buy supplies...

[RH Customs]

Where is a good place to buy DIY supplies to make customs speaker cables and also interconnects?

Thanks

I'm a big fan of the folks over at Westlake Electronic.

www.westlake-electronic.com

I stumbled on that site today, and man do they have a lot of supplies and tools.

Any other places?

I would also try Parts Express. As far as high quality cable goes, it's hard to beat Canare or Belden, and Westlake Carries both of those. And unless you want magic terminations, you can find everything you need at Westlake as well.

Cool, I think I'm all set.

I'm a big fan of MCM electronics. Thing is they are not a retail operation as much as a manufacturing supply warehouse, so their catalog may seem rather cryptic.

I get all the parts for making my cables from them, and the prices are fantastic. I can make a 1ft pair of stereo interconnects (double shielded, teflon dielectric, and good looking and quality plugs) for $8, and then 14c/foot after that.

they also have pretty much any part you would want for making your own gear as well, like crossovers, amplifiers, etc.
