'Custom Audio Cables' was established in 2002 to supply quality assembled cables. Our customers include audio equipment suppliers/retailers, location sound recordists, universities, AV hire companies, government departments, television broadcasters, video and film production companies, theaters, and recording studios.

We supply cables Australia-wide and accept payment by EFT/direct deposit, cheque or money order.

Attention to detail and the use of quality components allow us to assemble cables which are highly reliable and built to last. Each cable is assembled by a qualified electronics technician with over a decade of experience in professional cable assembly.

We specialise in assembling cables configured to suit individual requirements. We will happily assemble one cable or a hundred; just ask us for a quote!

For those who wish to assemble their own cables we offer cable (by the metre) and connectors separately. We stock Neutrik, Canare, Mogami, Switchcraft and Hirose to name just a few.

A tax invoice will be enclosed with your cables. We can also email a copy if you require it beforehand.

We used to accept cards but found most customers preferred to pay by EFT so due to the lack of requests for credit card payment we have discontinued merchant facilities.

CABLES

Q. I am not sure exactly what cable I require, can you help?
Yes, simply email a description of what you are trying to achieve and what equipment you are connecting (i.e. mixer to camera). Please include the cable length required. 

Q. What brands of connectors and cable do you recommend?
We have been using Neutrik connectors, Canare and Mogami cables for professional applications for many years and regard these extremely highly in terms of their performance and build quality. We also use and highly recommend Belden audio/video cable, Switchcraft mini-XLR plugs, Lemo connectors and Hirose circular connectors.

Q. How is the cable length measured?
Cable length (where specified) is the total, overall length of the cable including the length of the connectors.

Q. Do you supply video cables?
Yes! We highly recommend Canare professional video cables which we assemble and supply. We use LV-61S which is a very flexible RG59 type video coaxial cable and Canare BCP series professional 75 ohm video BNC crimp connectors.

Q. Can you supply technical specifications for a particular cable or connector?
Yes, we will happily email any technical specification where the manufacturer has made this information available.

Q. We want to build our own cables, can you supply the connectors and cable?
Certainly, take a look at our products page for price lists for cable and connectors or email your requirements and we will respond with a quote. Discounts apply for quantity purchases.

Q. Do you use heatshrink?
Yes, wherever possible heat-shrink is used to provide mechanical isolation between pins inside the connector body. Heat-shrink is also used to build a small cable up to the correct diameter to allow the connector’s cable clamp to grip the cable properly. Many cheaply manufactured cables do not provide this and therefore their cables can fail prematurely if placed under stress or pulled on harshly.
