^^^ 2,500???

Well, computing US$65 to US$1=Php40, parang Php2,500 ++.  ;D  it's US$65 + US$16 shipping to CA tapos bahala ka na kung pano mo paparatingin satin.

di ko parin sya ma gets. medjo naguguluhan ako dun sa end part both wire kung san ita tap or screw. o talagang tanga lang talaga ako. :-[

bro kicx_zippinbud, you don't have to be a tech to do this exercise, I'm not a tech either... :D.
Simple lang paggawa nito - ang kilangan lang is to keep same polarity of the  male and female plugs, color coded naman ang mga wires.At ang importante hindi shorted, check all contacts a couple or more times to be 100% sure that nothing got mixed-up in the connections...
good-luck...   ;D

I would not recommend testing the power capbles on you gears immediately. Better use a multi-tester and check the poles are matched at both ends and ensure there are not grounded wires (poles that may be in contact with one another).

Ask someone to help you out if needed.

You connect them to your gears only when you are VERY, VERY, VERY sure the power cable is safe to use.

I would just like to share this:

http://www.takefiveaudio.com/mall/shopcontent.asp?type=Tunami_PC

These the exact materials I'm using now. Very clean sound, black background, more detail, more punch.

I used Oyaide SWO-GX ULTIMO power outlet with them.


Nice...
