  1. Thanks witchdoctor - but as mentioned above - I prefer not to use medication of any kind Elcorso - I will try your Earplug solution
  2. Thanks for all of the above - the answer I'm sure is both minor in nature and more than likely contained in the above possibilites - It is winter here in South Australia and I do a lot of driving, which is known to cause back/neck ailments And I commit the cardinal sin of using Cotton buds after showering.....
  3. Thanks Mourip - should have also mentioned that it is intermittent - was happening when I posted - but stopped a few hours ago - never had anything like it before and as mentioned , it just started out of the blue a few weeks ago I prefer to steer clear of any kind of medication - will try to notice the circumstances when it happens to try to nut out the cause
  4. Hi all, thought I'd check here before seeking medical advice For the last 2-3 weeks - I have had this weird "vacuum" like lock between my nasal breathing and my right eardrum as in - when I breathe in I can feel(sense) those breathes causing pressure on my right eardrum I have tried blocking both nostrils and blowing, but to no avail It's no more than slightly annoying - but I would like to be rid of it Any thoughts ? Thanks , Michael.....
  5. DIY one into two - courtesy of WAGO 221 connectors - easy as to use and rock solid connection Certainly not elegant or pretty - but if you absolutely must have a dual 2.1mm DC cable - and it will probably be hidden from view anyway The Wago's are 18mm square and the star quad I used is 18g (twisted pair -15g)
  6. Hi all, just to clarify - my split cables all have 2 ground leads, one on the Data leg and one on the power leg Michael
  7. Have just emailed Oyaide to ask if they can do international shipping Conversion rate is great - about US$ 4.50 each !

  9. Low Profile Right Angle 2.1mm plug ( Not Gold plated) This is using the thicker, 18AWG Response StarQuad cable - if you are using the thinner , girly () Canare 4S6 it will be even easier..... Forgot about the solder tabs and inserted the positive wires straight down into the centre pin hole - remember this is a cheap generic plug - then used GhentAudio idea to solder Gnd wires ( sort of) - wrapped it all in plumbers tape and used a clever Heatshrink trick to finish it of - Tip - the bit of extra length of 13mm Heatshrink that extends past the plug - while the tubing is still mad hot , squeeze tightly with a pair of needle nose pliers to fuse together and trim Michael
  10. That 2273 is for Solidcore wires only - no good for stranded 4S6 It's Ok for us who can solder - but this allows anyone with a sharp knife to build their own Y cable
  11. The finished cable may not be as pretty as my Graphic - but it's a recipe that anyone can do
  12. This new one is even smaller and accepts from 14 AWG to 28 AWG - 2 x 21 AWG 4S6 is approx 18 AWG - so the double wires will fit no problem
  13. Got it - I think - easy as pie DIY Y cable Order 3 cables from Ghent unterminated at one end - at your required lengths For eg - 1 x 30cm , 2 x 15cm Get a pack of these Wago connectors - About $10 for 10 The 6 positive wires go in one connector - 6 negative wires go in another Here's a vid about them
  14. @Michael-Elijah Audio Can you please test with your Elec connector ? I don't have the Canary- wire - the Response Speaker cable I used is larger all round 8.5mm OD with 4 x 18AWG - Saying that, I don't think 8 wires ( even the slightly thinner 21AWG 4S6) will fit - definitely not with the shell - but also the soldering would be an issue - 4 wires onto the centre pin....... I think tbooe is on the right track Something like this would be an "elegant" solution
  15. Hi Jud - you'll need 19mm(3/4") min. Heatshrink to fit over the screw type 2.1mm plug - 3:1 shrink ratio would be best I think you could heat it up to shrink while its straight then put the 90 deg. bend in it while the Heatshrink is still hot Michael
