MiMiC Cables - Custom Sleeved Cables

[uncola]

My dac/amp finally arrived.  So glad I got a sleeved cable, an ugly rubber cable wouldn't go with my premium aluminum and wood headphone gear.  You should offer a braided usb cable so you could charge $899 like double helix cables

Congrats and I hope you enjoy your cable

Actually, I replicated this double helix cable for someone a while back... Which is why I started offering premium silver silica sleeving on my cables I think the cable ended up costing a little over 500 in parts

Hey Mimic CHeck ur  Pm's i wrote u ! thx

[uncola]

500 in parts?!  Wow their margins are less than I thought, although still substantial.
Or you could make a cable with integrated brilliant pebbles for emi shielding and resonance control




My other favorite.. shunyata research foam cable elevators $350
quotes from happy users "Under the speaker cables, however, there was an appreciable improvement in resolution and a darker background not unlike the effect of using the Hydra Model-8, but it was admittedly on a smaller scale. Sonic images were given more body and definition. On a couple of SACDs I felt that there was improvement in high-frequency resolution in particular."

Is it possible to get a custom length lightning cable ?

Yeah, it included the cryo treated copper wire, many layers of shielding including an inner gold foil which was crazy priced, and sleeved w/ the silver silica.

I've never seen/heard about the pebble method. Kind of interesting.

For these cables, I actually just purchase a brand new lightning cable from the Apple store so they're authentic and free from issues.  So, only one length. I'll look into other options for you though.

soon to be at techkeys!

[tjcaustin]

Normal sleeves or paracord?

Also, I sent you a PM a little while ago.  No rush, just sayin'

Or just Saiyan, if you will -

Here are a few cables I made for Boost a couple months ago. Just updated the USB connector ends.

Really nice.

I have two questions.

• Would you mind telling me what colors these are?
  They are almost exactly what I had in mind. I really love the muted colors.
• Could you recommend a dark blue that is close to those?

I have been holding of on ordering since I didn't fancy the shrink tubing you used previously.
But seeing the new connectors tells me it's time to order a couple of your cables.

i cant wait for my cable to arrive. then i can look like a boss.

green ranger, grey, color x, and black.  you'd probably enjoy 'grand bleu'. Hope that helps

Thank you.
I don't see those colors listen on your page though.
I guess I'll just specify them in the notes when ordering and everything will be fine?

One last question.
How about a sleeved coiled cable? Would you be able to produce such a thing?

The MDPC sleeved cables I made will only be sold through techkeys.  I only offer the paracords through the webstore. Sorry about that!

I do not offer coiled cables :/

Sorry for the bad news!!

That's a shame.
No worries though. I'll try to grab a few when they go on sale on techkeys.
But given how good they look I'm afraid they sell out before I get the chance.

Thank you for answering my questions.

[mauri]

Erm, does the live order still work?

[Lunartuna]

Webstore completely sold out? I was going to place an order mid May!

[Lunartuna]

Yes I got the email for his cables at techkeys, I'm interested in the crazy patterned ones.

[Sifo]

Yes I got the email for his cables at techkeys, I'm interested in the crazy patterned ones.

He's taking a break from making cables after he finishes the last round of orders because he's heading to London, which is why stuff is marked as Out of Stock. For probably 3 months.

[Lunartuna]

Darn. The only solid colour cable I want is white for the white choc mini which techkeys doesnt seem to have.

[Elrick]

Yes, but the poor guy needs to take a break from this constant "Cable-making".

I've just bought 3 of his cables at Techkeys.us - Athenian, Lavender and Strawberry Red.  Just want to get me some more cables, because I'm a cable addict  .

[tjcaustin]

While mimic is overseas, I'll be taking over (probably not directly through mimic cables, though) the US based custom cable making.  I'll probably be ready to take orders around the middle of this month and will go until whenever.

Great! I'll be keeping an eye out.

How will you be accepting custom orders? And where is mimic right now? I haven't heard from him for awhile.

TJC -- what options are there for right angle connections? Are they available and if so, which end(s) and are they the non-heatsink type connectors?

They are available (request in the notes section, no extra cost) and they are a similar snap-on style as the straight connectors.

[tsangan]

Are cables with PS/2 heads but the other side is left to be solder onto a PCB available?

Do you have right-angle Mini USB? I'm looking for a new cable for my travel Poker.

I do.  In fact that's the only right angle connector I have.

[Sai]

do you have any pictures for it ?

[Jocelyn]

Does it go left or right from back of keyboard?

haha. now i need to decide what should i get. left or right. 

[Jocelyn]

Oh wow, that's an excellent connector!!! It only goes left, unless of course you can reverse the connector, but left is ideal anyway. Very very nice TJ

They look the same as the ones I have. They're not bad (certainly not horrible in any way), but not as nice as the straight ones and can only go one direction unless you mod the housing.

Keep in mind my earlier statement was before actually modding one, but I do stand by my "either?" answer as I knew modification would be involved.  I do plan on searching for better options (like how nubbs has got me into what may be a much better USB A connector) as things go on.

Yes

Do I just message you for that or am I just blind and don't see the option on the website?

My guess would be you add it to the "special instructions" box

Click custom with ps/2 end and leave sleeving preference and end preference in special instructions.

Oh wow I didn't even see the "all page" until you posted the above TJ! - http://www.mimic-cables.com/collections/all

You offer so many options and the prices are VERY good
