JerryLeedsI'm chatting with Periapt now so I'll let you know if they can make one. They have the connectors for other sets so I don't think a custom cable would be a stretch. Just need to get pricing and some other details.

JerryLeedsJust wanted to share a brief update but I'm talking with Taariq at Periapt and sent over the pin diagrams provided by CeeTee so hopefully they'll be getting back to me pretty soon with a yay or nay on whether they can get this cable made. I mentioned that others on MD would probably want the same so that should hopefully make it easier for others wanting a balanced cable as well when y'all get your 177X in the mail.

JerryLeedsDo you think this cable from aliexpress could work as a balance cable? https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/bX4uwKZK

DylanGallagherThere is an option for 120 cm length so it's not so bad.

GoldenGooseYou should also verify the pin diagram to verify it's wired correctly or it could give a hosts of issues. Just because it ends in a 4-pin doesn't necessarily mean they wired it correctly as you can still get SE out of a 4-pin plug if wired as such.

jaydunndidditGuy that sells this cables only send me info that they are balanced audio cables, miniXLR=XLR 4pin and only requires 1 to 1 soldering. I ask him to send me pictures how soldering looks because I doubt he has a pin diagram.

jaydunndidditFor this cable, I ordered the balanced Type 3 cable terminated in ProXLR and 4 pin mini XLR (ta4f) and then provided this pin diagram to their customer service before ordering:

As I placed my order, I referenced the email and pin diagram and they took care of it. 5 foot in black ran me $62, which I think is quite fair.

jaydunndidditCould you take photo with unscrewed ends? I'd like to see how soldering looks on your cable, because I want to make this cable by myself.

JerryLeedsThey'll correct it for free. That happened to me too, actually. They sent me out a new one fast and when I got it, I sent the other cable back. I'd like to hope it's not the diagram as it's the exact one CeeTee provided prior. Either way, just reach out to em and they'll straighten it out. Een using mine balanced since I got them without issue since then.
